Fantastic solid wood shoe bench! The color is slightly deeper than I anticipated but it’s too functional not to keep. I bought two and I’m a women’s size 7.5 and I can fit 4 pairs of ankle booties or tennis shoes on the middle shelf with 3-4 pairs of tall boots on top. It’s super easy to assemble, just have to attach the legs with a bolt and wrench (which was provided in a cute reusable flannel drawstring bag). Assembly took less than 5 minutes...quicker than unboxing for sure! Overall very pleased with the purchase.
