The assembly was easy, so I will give them that. If you have any special shoes (rock climbing, cycling), they won't fit or will slide off. Short booties do not fit well without smushing the top of them. Heels can only be placed on the bottom row since nothing can go under them. Wedges can't be bigger than 2", and that is tight. So basically, unless you have 36 pairs of low profile shoes or sneakers, move along.
