The cabinet looks great. It can easily be put together by one person in under an hour. The only downside is that the openings themselves are not that large. You may need two openings for one pair of shoes, especially if you're trying to put gym shoes into the compartments. Also, the backing is just a thick cardboard so you cannot put shoes in too forcefully or you will damage the backing. The lower portion of the cabinet has ample space for boots or larger shoes.
