There are times when our ski house is filled to the brim and there are not enough towel racks in the bathrooms to allow all the guests to hang their towels. I bought this rack to place in one of the bedrooms and it serves its purpose. It is very attractive and represented correctly in the picture. Assembling it wasn't difficult, but the quality was poor and the rack was warped needing to be "stressed" with rope to set it correctly.
