This actually ended up working out better than I expected, considering how affordable it was (it was on sale at the time however) So, I was expecting to hate something about almost, lol, but totally not the case. Super easy assembly, simple and small enough for it to work just about anywhere. I have mine at the foot of the bed. I use it as a bench to sit while I take my shoes on & off and the shelves underneath obviously to hold most frequently worn kicks. I dig it.

Love the sturdiness of this bench. Well made but had to use my own Allen wrench to assemble as the one provided needed more torque.Note also the correct measurements as several are cited in the description. Most important if working with precise placement which I was. 27 1/2” wide x 11” deep x 17 5/8” high

Using it as a shoe rack by the front door and it works great
