As we have no mud-room and 2 boys who just throw their shoes off the minute they get home, I needed a shoe rack that would fit a narrow entryway and between 2 doorways (so not take up a lot of room), and allow me to get boots, shoes, slippers off the floor so people wouldn't trip on them coming into the house. This rack does the job, and it is pretty sturdy too. Metal rack, not wood, but no issues with that, as long as it doesn't show the dirt! Only had up a week, but already got a compliment that it looks good where it is and does the job. Can fit 3 pairs of my husbands shoes, 2 pairs of my sneakers, and 1 pair of shoes and boots each for my 2 boys, so fits alot!

Pros: Fits more than expected, sturdy, space saving design, dark color
