This is a nice book cart! It is substantial and well designed. It was not particularly hard to assemble. Other reviewers have mentioned (and shown) the tight spot for some of the shelf screws. But these are all cap screws, and unless your hands are super large, you can finger-tighten these screws 95% of the way, then use the hex key to fully tighten them -- maybe a full turn, so you'd have to insert the key twice. If you already have a hex set with a ball driver at one end, you won't even need to do that (you need either a 5mm or a 3/16\" hex). So it's not nearly as difficult as some have described. Only reason I gave it 4 stars is that it arrived with a slight dent in one of the side supports, right on the 'handle' at the top. Does not affect function, and doesn't even show unless you look closely, but it's disappointing. Packaging does not include any styrofoam, which is good from an environmental perspective, but not fully protective of the contents. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one (and I might do that). Recommended!
