I chose this item As it was the only shoe storage compartment that would fit in my tiny apartment space. Buying it I felt like it was overpriced and still think so but alas couldn’t find a white multi shoe storage space this small. I found the white top isn’t white like the photo and almost has a pinkish hue to it- off white . It was only myself setting it up and took me if not an hour and more. The instructions were absolutely brutal and printed very small. I spent most of my time trying to understand the instructions than actually putting the unit together. ￼￼￼￼ It looks decent some gaps are noticeable but it does the job in the end.
