Bought this to replace a dresser I had for our apartment entryway. 
Needed something to quickly organize shoes so they're not in a large pile by the door. This is a great small-scale entry bench. 
Was easy to put together - took my husband less than hour. I read previous comments about having issues with the hinges and the holes not aligning but figured I'd take a chance, and I'm glad I did. Didn't have any issues with the assembly, and looks like a nice solid piece. 
  

Pros: small-scale, comfortable height, shoe storage
