A two-person job to put together and it feels very sturdy. It's a little short so we plan on adding risers to elevate enough to tuck short boots underneath. Picture of completed project and arm of proud husband in jam-jams (he is 5'10" for reference). The doors don't close as seamlessly as we'd like, but they stay shut and will be fine for the entryway. My women's size 11 shoes fit and my spouse's men's size 11 shoes stick out and have to be put in at an angle.  The middle two shelves are removable, but it is really difficult to get those out one the entire shelf is built, buyer be aware! Still, it's a nice looking piece and will work well for the entryway.
