The quality is low.  The wood is very flimsy.  One shelf had a chunk of wood broken off, though it didn't affect the overall integrity of the rack.  Some of the wood was also green/blue/brown, as if rotten.  I kept it simply for the reason that it is small and fits inside my closet to hold my heels.  It's not big and frankly the shelves aren't spread over far enough to include big (tall-ish) pairs of shoes
