oh i haven't yet. it's actually still at my parents house because it would have been a tight fit in my car. and i'm not sure i'll put it together when it gets here, i might wait til i move. it's not something i "need" immediately.

although my experience with putting together IKEA furniture hasn't been bad. i know there's some horror stories out there, but i've never had a problem.

Oh, and just to jump in, I had trouble putting it together - but I didn't have previous Ikea experience. I would suggest having a second person on hand for when the big part comes crashing down on your head.

definitely will do. i might also google a bit to see if anyone has any tips. but so far i've put together three chests of drawers and two shelving units without issue, as well as several of their beds.

That wrapping paper is pretttttty. Also, I have that bookcase in the birch color and I love it. I got mine off craigslist for about that price, so it encourages me to leave it behind when I eventually move and get a new one (it's kind of beat up, at this point.)
