Arlo 72cm H x 179.5cm W Standard Bookcase

It looks lovely in my living room :) I would have been better if it was 100% solid wood, but that would have probably doubled its price. It took about an hour to put together, screw, unscrew, screw the parts together again, as it did not perfectly align. The instructions however were very clear and each assembling stage came with it’s own little bag of screws and easy to follow directions.

Looks good in the front room with matching TV stand. Very pleased with the finish for the price we paid. Definitely a 2 person job when constructing, although it is fairly easy to construct.

Really happy, great item. Everything went together perfect.

This was disappointing compared to other furniture I have ordered from you. The instructions came in a very over-complicated manner that was also very wasteful of paper and plastic. Some of the holes drilled were too big so that things that were supposed to be tightened just span around. The use of dowels and screwed in fixings was supposed to add greater stability, but actually made joining some sections impossible. In the end we had to remove some of the dowels or it just wouldn't join. The metal sections supposed to join the feet to the bottom bar would not line up and attach no matter what we tried. In the end we jettisoned several bits of dowel, 4 rods that couldn't actually be tightened and improvised so that I now have a sturdy piece of furniture. However, it was a stressful and annoying experience.

Very nice and well made!
