Love love love this item, but it was not easy to put together. You need 2 people to assemble. I did it with just myself because I didn’t have an option for someone else, but it’s difficult with just one person. You don’t find out until the later instructions (I believe so) that you’ll need a second person. As we as if you have large shoes it will not be a good option. Thankfully I have small feel (size 6 in women and 4 in men) so my shoes fit well. Depending on the shape of the sneaker or heel depends on how well it fits. But overall it can store a good amount of my shoes, sandals, etc, and those that don’t fit I store elsewhere. Absolutely love the purchase. Ohh one more thing. You have to place your finger print on it every time you open or use your knuckle. So it gets dirty around the corners quickly. But, it’s so aesthetically nice and I love the way it looks.
