The look of this piece is great and what I was looking for. However, since it is for shoes, it is definitely not sturdy enough. I am nervous everyday when my kids put their shoes away in it it’s going to fall apart. With how the screws tighten, it just doesn’t feel secure at all. I really love this piece but I don’t know how long it will last. The doors i have redone many many times but without pre-screwed holes for the handles and hinges. It’s insanely difficult for the doors to line up easily. Also, once you’ve decided on how big you want your shelves, it’s nearly impossible to change the height of them later with how it’s built. I was hoping to for winter for taller boots but it’s not going to happen. Lastly, the doors do not close together . There is the gap and you can see it on the other reviews. This is not because of how you build it, it’s just not well fabricated.
