Update: after only having this for one month, the paint is chipping and peeling away where we open the door (there are no knobs, and even if being gentle, this is really not holding up well). We are sooo disappointed. Be forewarned: it's a tough assembly, you'll need to drill your own holes, and you'll need two people. I was really excited to find a shoe cabinet that looked simple, sleek and was a decent quality. But, after a fairly tough assembly, it's just... ok. Also, be forewarned, you'll need a drill bit to poke holes though in the doors to attach the door hinges, as the perforated holes were missing on the doors which made it impossible to use the screws. Also, my package came short on screws, so I used alternative ones the came with the provided hardware package to screw the doors together and the screws were too long, and ended up poking out on the side and punch though (ugh). I now have tiny little screw heads poking out the side of the cabinet. It's not obvious but I'm extremely unhappy about that of course. Lastly, the feet should look cute, but they are just a little strange looking. They were CRAZY hard to screw in as well. We had to use goalie gloves to protect our hands to screw the legs in. It was wildly difficult. On the shoe storage Side, we fit about 16 pairs of men's size 12 shoes (all sneakers) in here. Some of them were really chunky and I was shocked at how much it fit. It's great for sneaker/ shoe storage. If you can deal with a difficult assembly, it's a decent product. It comes with wood glue which I appreciated, so I think it will last. It's quite sturdy. I'm just not in love and a little disappointed overall. After all this, we're thinking of making space for it in one of our closets since the shoe functionality and shelves are great, but not thrilled with the look and defects.

its not that hard to install, but i would say a power drill would be really helpful
