This is a decent quality, respectable wardrobe for the price. Yes, it's mostly particle board, but you're not paying for real wood throughout. You have the choice of either inserting a shelf in the top portion or hanging clothes, but you can't do both unless you are hanging very small clothes. Make sure you check the dimensions; it is medium-sized, not large, and is more suitable for child-sized clothing. It is usable for teens as a supplementary piece, but it is not really for adults. It assembles very easily in about 1.5-2 hours if you have built these kinds of pieces before. If you have not, the instructions can be confusing and lack detail, but just use common sense and be prepared to disassemble some pieces (like the runners for the drawers) if you make a mistake. All you need is a screwdriver and hammer. Overall, it is a dependable, functional piece of furniture, and I would recommend it to others, so long as you know you are not getting a high-quality, all wood piece of furniture.
