Having young children, I love that this organizes all the little shoes, coats, and jackets. I even put storage cubes on the top shelf for all those mittens, hats, gloves, blankets, and scarves that need homes. It's attractive furniture that has cleaned up our piles of clutter. The ONLY reason it didn't receive a 5-star rating from me, is that the bench lid looks crooked. We have tinkered with it and tried to re-adjust it but it will not straighten out. Big gap on one side, almost rubbing on the other side. (thankfully it still closes fine)
A job to put together! I was able to do it all myself in several hours (over the course of 2 days) and then my husband and I set it up and put the lid on the bench together.
Good organizer
