Very SOLID product. One person put together in 1.5 hours. It looks beautiful and it is not cheap material. Very pleased. Do measure because we understood it was 60" tall but most people leaving reviews expected it to be taller. I am happy with the height of it since it was purchased to keep my childrens items put away after school. Very very pleased. The only thing I would say is that they included a magnet for the bottom bench but no instructions to install it. Would be nice to know where the magnet goes. Highly recommend this beautiful prodcut and the ease it was to put together.
Arrived on time, in good shape, and the pieces were solid. I had worried a bit after reading some reviews, but it worked out well. Assembly does take a good bit of time, and the wood screws for the door hinges require the tiniest Phillips head ever, but it's doable. We had tried one reviewer's suggestion to build the top on top of the bottom half, but discovered that idea made putting in some of the wood screws impossible unless you are tiny contortionist. So we followed the directions and all was well. When we move, we'll probably move it in two pieces to help avoid any mishaps. It's beautiful and practical.
This is exactly what I was looking for... although quite difficult to put together! Fit perfectly in my space and holds a lot more shoes than I imagined it would! I do recommend it but keep in mind you will feel like throwing it out before you finally finish assembling it! End result is worth it!
Pros: Coat rack arrived earlier than expected. It is beautiful when completed! Cons: One piece marked ‘H’ arrived completely broken in half. Not wanting to return the whole product, we used a similar color of wood putty to hold the long board together during assembly. It is supported enough to hold together and patched area is nearer to top so not weight bearing on bench area. We will not hang heavy items on hooks and I wouldn’t promote using broken pieces. One area on other side, not affected by broken board had a section of holes not aligned correctly. The other holes on same board were fine. The finished product is beautiful.
I love my hall tree. It was hard to put together and took a while but it was well worth it. I would definitely purchase again. It is very sturdy and holds my kids¡¯ backpacks and coats as well as my heavy purse without issue.
I would buy this again in a heartbeat, it is beautiful and a great addition to our entryway. It takes a while to put all of the pieces together, but it is worth it!
