Surprised with the quality! DO NOT SIT ON THE TOP. We thought we could at least lean against it while we put our shoes on, but that is not the case. Isn’t a big deal to us though because it still looks great! Holds a lot of shoes and you can set things you need to take with you on the top to help remember. Didn’t have a single issue putting it together (i.e. all holes were right size and aligned correctly). Got here sooner than expected as well.
