No problems putting this cabinet together. Instructions are a bit vague but if you think it through before starting it should be an easy process. Took about 90 minutes.  I was able to fit 4 pairs (size 8)of shoes on each shelf, with sneakers the space might be limited to 3 pairs. Men's size 10 shoes will not fit, size 9.5 is tight but it works. I find the price is very reasonable, this shoe cabinet style looks way better than most others, sleek and modern.
