I have plenty of shoes, I figured this would be a nice economical choice to get them off of my room and closet floor. After neatly stacking not quite 50 shoes into the unit which I noticed was poorly designed and had some broken plastic already.....one pole didn't quite fit and came out on the bottom rack and when I tried to adjust it another pole came out and I had a shoe avalanche! Essentially wasted my time putting it together and putting my shoes on it. I promptly had to go to Target and spend 50+ dollars investing in the rolling shoe rack since I didn't have time to order online and wait. On the plus side Wayfair was very good to me and customer service was able to credit some of the money back - I threw the rack in the trash, 30 bucks wasted! My advice - invest in something more sturdy if you have many shoes, if not wood racks then purchase the steel rolling ones - there's a little bit of time required to screw in the poles but their sturdy and its worth it.
