We used this in conjunction with the closetmaid suite symphony closet system. The color is a nice deep chocolate. We stacked two of them to make 5 levels of shoe storage on both sides of the closet. Please make sure to read the specifications. I wear heels to church and work S-F. These could only accommodate heels above 3 inches or so on the top shelf. The shelves in between do not fit my 3 inch and up heels. Don’t be like us...well me. All of his shoes fit. Measure the shoe from bottom of heel to absolute top of shoe (ankle area). Fortunately, we found a solution for my higher heels using suite symphony system.
