The instructions on this thing were ridiculous, but once assembled it really looks great. That's why I only give it four stars. My advice: do not install the cross bars on the back until you have put the shelves in place. It's just impossible to fit the shelves otherwise. The shelf comes with a wall anchor kit to prevent tipping, but if you don't have children, or children visiting your home, I wouldn't bother as it is really sturdy. We put this in our bathroom at our beach condo to hold towels. Very stylish..
