This is a second shelf that is similar to another that I have in my laundry/mud room area. Not an exact match, but close enough. I now have extra space to hang things and for shoes. We didn't use the hardware enclosed, but attached the unit to studs for extra strength. My only complaint is with how the item was packaged. It was very well packaged, but so much styrofoam. What a mess that made.  I would think the company could have used something more earth friendly. The unit itself would get 5 stars, but I took one off for the wasteful packaging.
