My closet rack and shelves fell off the wall of my closet, and I didn't want to have to deal with drilling holes in the wall to replace them. This rack was the perfect alternative. My closet it just sliiiightly wider than the rack, so I had to assemble it right in the closet; otherwise I'd never have been able to maneuver it in. It was a little tricky doing it that way--if I'd been able to assemble it in a larger room, assembly would have been a bit quicker and easier. Still, no complaints, and it's been doing a great job for a couple months now. I love it.
