The instructions to put this together at first seemed overwhelming, but once I started, it was very clear and organized. I wear mens 11  wife wears womans 11, so I was concerned our big shoes wouldnt fit, but they do. It is nice to have a place for our shoes instead of just throwing them on the closet floor. The cabinet itself fits perfectly between my front door  closet. The style works well with my mid-century modern home.
