We were looking for a wall shelf that was functional and decorative for an empty entry wall and this one is perfect!  The rounded knob hooks are great for hanging coats and jackets without poking into the fabric as some coat racks will do.  Perfect for hanging our dog's leash, my husband's baseball/golf caps, and my purse as well!  The shelfs are sufficiently deep enough for picture frames and small plants too, especially with the ledges that are built into the shelves.
