This is a great storage solution. We don't have a huge entryway in our apartment but this fits perfectly in the nook by our front door. We use one drawer for our daughter's shoes and slippers, and the other for my husband and I.
Assembly in general was fairly easy to follow as this is one of the better visual instruction guides. Except there were these sets of screws that were REALLY difficult to screw into place because they're clearly made from inferior metal. Using a philips head screwdriver, you couldn't help but strip the head of the screw because of the amount of torque needed to force the screw into the plastic holders so that it was flush with the surface.
Unfortunately, there are about 14 - 16 of those screws that you have to install. I was able to build this thing in about 45 minutes to an hour, but the amount of force I had to use to get those specific screws (I believe they're screw B in the installation guide) left my arms sore the next day. And I'm not a lightweight! I lift weights regularly.
Great storage solution, assembly could be better
