This shelf is really worth buying! We needed a shoe rack in a visible spot near the front door. This rack fills the purpose well & looks much better than the particleboard rack that preceded it. It holds about many pairs adult size shoes per shelf (could hold more if they were small adult or kid size). The assembly is really easy. I did it myself. It took less than half an hour to assemble. It would be easier with two people but one can do it. You just need to be careful especially at the beginning as the bamboo is fairly lightweight. Thanks to this shoe rack, my room looks tidier than before! Environmental & Thick Bamboo: This shoe rack is mainly made from bamboo, which has short growth period to be friendly to nature. Moreover, it is also non-toxic & durable enough to serve for long time. Each shelf is thick enough to bear a large weight of 20kg to ensure great stability. Large Storage with 5 Tiers: The shoe rack features with 5 shelves to provide as large as space for storage. W
