This fits perfectly in a little alcove of our entry way that nothing else could fit into.  It is amazingly sturdy and holds all our four year old's coats and hats plus a few pairs of shoes from everyone else.  I love the color (a mahogany as to a cherry - not too red) and it matches our shoe bench that we just ordered called the Winsome Dayton Storage Hall Bench with Shelves.  If you really want to get the point across to your guests that you have a shoe-free house, pair these two items up and there there will be no excuses for wearing shoes in the house.  They also look great together and I know this from trial and error of sending the first one back.  

Pros: size, color, strength
