Unit looks as intended when assembled, but assembly was problematic in several ways. One of the two identical units was out-of-square and had to be returned, for which Wayfair put up many hurdles. As to the assembly, if you are not handy, don't order this. If you are handy be prepared: 1) Shelves are NOT pre-drilled and there are no templates for the drilling locations so you have to carefully lay out where the holes must be placed. 2) The holes in the frame are countersunk, and flat head screws are supplied. However, the screws are too long, if used without washers they would likely penetrate the shelf. Even with the washers, the screw would come within 1/16 inch of penetrating the shelf. I bought flat head screws of a shorter length and a bigger diameter which worked okay. 3) You will need a "stubby" (short) screw driver to install some of the screws. 4) I bought the ~84 inch high shelf. For this two frames are bolted one on top of the other. However, the design of the unit means that the two frames do not stay properly aligned. Shimming with washers was required to get them to work. Note that the instructions - which are pretty thin at best - do not cover this part of the assembly, so you have to study all the parts and hardware to understand how it is intended to work. Overall, I spent about three hours on the one shelf because of the incorrect parts, poor instructions, and finicky nature of this unit, and I'm pretty handy. This did not include the time for the trip to the hardware store for new screws.

Very unreliable and most likely cancel the order on the last day …do not order from this brand or wayfair

DO NOT BUY Quality was absolutely horrendous. I even ended up sending it back. Can’t believe they thought it was okay to send something like that out for over 100€

Very difficult to assemble - no screw holes! Was returned

This is a ladder with shelves. The shelves are not predrilled, you have to figure out the measurements yourself, and use a drill otherwise the job of attaching the shelves to the metal parts is impossible . The instruction doesn’t mention that there is a twist with the metal bits. In my case after attaching shelves to the two separate pieces of the metal ladder I realised that I cannot connect 2 metal bits together to complete the structure without reattaching the shelves and screwing the up to the same metal bit but turned upside done. Complete mess. Instead of one tall shelves I have two short ones and one of them is supported by the wall otherwise it will fall - one of the vital bits is not working , the photo is attached . The delivery was quick and the product was packaged well but some shelves were chipped and had signed off glue all over. I would not recommend this item
