Exactly what we were looking for. Our new home did not have a front closet, but we really needed somewhere to hang coats, bags and put our shoes. This is a perfect size and does not look overpowering, despite the dark color. It was also very quick and easy to assemble. The only complaint is with regards to the hooks. They are very thin, and the end are not put on very well. This isn't noticable, but I would be hesitant to hang things over the hooks of it were a fabric that could mark easily. Otherwise, we are very happy with the purchase.
