Haotian Shoe Storage Bench with Cushion, White Narrow Shoe Rack for Entryway, Small Shoe Cabinet with 2 Tiers Flip-Drawer, Closet Hallway Mudroom FSR82-L-W

This shoe rack does what it’s supposed to do. First, I liked the price mixed with the functionality of fitting more shoes (having the 4 “drawers”). After a second look, I was nervous it looked like a filing cabinet but now am seeing it looks good. It’s sturdy, but unfortunately my sneakers are too large have the 2 shelves on 3/4 drawers so I can fit my shoes. One of my drawers had discoloration or scratches, it’s hard to take a picture of but the outline are a little white in comparison to the other drawers. No big deal but there is definitely a difference in the appearance. I will say it took quite a long time to put together (2-3 hours but that’s just us), and I personally don’t find the instructions very well put-together. The first page is detailed and includes good pictures of all the parts. However, none of the steps have words or instructions, only pictures. The screws are a little hard to see and it doesn’t say “4 screws.” You have to count and really pay attention to ensure you’re following the picture. I’d definitely recommend a 2-person assembly, even if one person truly knows what they’re doing. It’s hard to hold each part and screw at the same time. I will say the instructions say you only need 2 screwdrivers, but there was a part that I personally needed a hammer for because we had to make our own holes on 2 steps. That was the most difficult part and took the longest. Otherwise, I really like the way it looks and it hides the shoes nicely. It’s definitely worth the money, you just have to take the time to build it. It holds a decent amount of shoes, about 4 per drawer so roughly 16. In my case again, it only holds 14 due to the Hoka sneakers being larger at the base, the door won’t close with the extra shelf so I only use the one open drawer.

This shoe cabinet is well designed and has quality preparation for assembly. Hardware attachment points are precise in location and neat. I'm a 78 year old grandmother and assembled the bench in a reasonable period of time this morning. The cabinet functions as described and is sturdy. The only thing I found lacking was no holes on cabinet backside for insertion of tiny screws to hold back panel - so I skipped this, which really doesn't matter since cabinet is against the wall. The bench description is as described being narrow and relatively small - but it is holding six pairs of shoes. A well constructed fabric cushion is included for the top of the bench.

When you buy furniture like this online it is really hot or miss and a few bad reviews are good warning not to bother. With this shoe holder I was really happily surprised that it looks like a solid piece. It is also really sturdy. I thought I was going to have to worry about it tipping or falling apart and it is completely stable. I can pull open the door without thinking (slam it open, basically) and it doesn’t budge. It’s not mounted to the wall either. If you get one with a ding or have problems with the screws or other issues, I would get a replacement sent. It’s worth it. It is overpriced for sure (hence only four stars), but if you need something you don’t have to worry about tipping and looks like you didn’t make it in high school shop class, this one is great. I can only speak to the one drawer model since taller ones have a different center of gravity. I have a weird ledge in my hallway so I wanted something short enough to fit under it and this is perfect. Also the instructions on putting it together look more overwhelming than they are. If you just take a second to make sure you’ve got the right piece in your hands for the steps it is actually pretty easy. I was scared by the plastic pieces that the drawers pull out on, but they seem to be fine. And you don’t see them much so the junky look inside can be forgiven. (They are white and not noticeable—it seems they will hold up.) I used my drill but didn’t need it and wound up hand tightening the screws in the end. I am able to put six pairs of adult shoes in it comfortably. I even got low boots in there by tilting them just a little bit. If you want something plain, solid, and short, this is it.

So glad I got this to deal with the pile of shoes I always have at my front door. Looks nice, hides the shoes. Will fit about 10ish pairs of kids shoes, about 4-8 pairs of adult shoes, depending on the size. I wear a lot of mules and slides, so I was able to tuck a pair of shoes together to maximize the space. Doing this allowed me to get about 12 pairs of shoes in it. It's nice looking and there's enough space on top for a few small decorative items, making my entry way clutter free and still attractive. It wasn't hard to put together--except for the two back panels because there were no pilot holes drilled for the screws. I had to drill my own. The instructions say you will only need a screwdriver. You will also need something to drill pilot holes in the back. I took about an hour to put together and is very sturdy. It also has a bracket for bolting to the wall, if you wish.

This shoe cabinet was a complete waste of money. The screws on one side never held properly from the beginning, and over time every single one of them came loose and fell out. As a result, the cabinet could not support itself and became unusable. This was not due to misuse or overloading. It was assembled correctly and intended for normal household use, yet the hardware quality was so poor that it failed entirely. Because the structure could not be fixed or trusted, we were never able to use the cabinet at all and eventually had to throw it away. For a product that is supposed to store shoes and be opened and closed daily, this level of poor construction is unacceptable. Extremely disappointing build quality. I do not recommend this product to anyone.

I didn't expect this to be high quality, but it's actually very sturdy and looks great. The product is very well packed to protect the finish. Assembly was very easy to follow.

It’s alright, could be better, but it does the job. Instructions could be a bit better, I recommend scanning the QR code and following the digital instructions over the paper one so you can really zoom in and see the steps. One thing I didn’t like was the screws that latches the drawers to the sides punctured the wood. Maybe I used the wrong screws or maybe I didn’t. Other than that its decent, although when they say small they mean small. Can fit about 2 pairs of shoes, 3 if the shoes aren’t tall or wide.

It’s the perfect size for my small entryway. I spray painted the handles matte black. The quality is amazing for the price. It was a little confusing to assemble because some of instructions were illustrated incorrectly. So it did take a few hours to assemble. It only takes one person to assemble though. What I liked most about it was that it was sturdy enough not to topple over when opening and closing the doors, which is an issue with some shoe cabinets. I didn’t have to anchor it to the wall but if you have kids you definitely would need to.
