I am using this to organize coats, hats, gloves, and my 8 year old.  It has really helped her get out the door to school with everything that she needs.  Matches great with the bench.  The only drawback is that all of the wood is not painted on the inside, and you can see that because it is hung at eye level.  I will have to paint those parts.  That is why it only got 4 stars.
