We are happy with this purchase. The gray, modern finish is nicer than other shoe cabinets we considered, which generally have a fake, wood-grain look. The cabinet came in two big boxes, weighing about 45 pounds each. (It would have helped if FedEx hadn't delivered the boxes to the wrong address.) Assembly, which required two people, was fairly straightforward, although the instructions were visual drawings only and no written instructions. There were no pre-drilled holes for the feet, which confusing -- but we figured out where to put them. We did not attach the cabinet to the wall because a baseboard prevented that, but we shimmed the feet so that it will not tilt forward. We have smaller shoes, so we ended up fitting about 30 pair in this cabinet. Makes our entryway much nicer.
