With space a premium in my hallway this does the job perfectly, with room for shoes on the bottom racks, keys. sunglasses etc. on the 'table' section, and loads of hooks for coats, scarves, umbrellas and the like.

I put the whole thing together in about half an hour with the allen key supplied - doesn't need two people, but make sure to do it in a big space so you can get around it to tighten screws as you go - don't tighten them all up too early or you may have trouble getting the last few bits slotted in!
