I was doing great putting this together, until I went to put the shelves in the cabinet. After many failed attempts I called in the A Team (aka Dad.) He was also stumped. I went back and read the first posters comments (about the unlabeled sides being reversed.) We took it apart, flipped the sides and the drawers finally fit. It helps to have 2 people to put in the drawers. The directions are pictures only, making it hard to assemble. I really like it now that it's finished.

Pros: great size/gets my shoes out of the floor
Cons: difficult to put together
