Alden Design 73" Metal Hall Tree with Shoe Storage Bench, Rustic Brown

Item arrived well packaged. It did contain a red ribbon that was attached to a separate small package within the larger package. This small package contained all the hardware including an alan wrench and the instructions. All the pieces were there. The wood feels like solid wood and looks nice. I am very pleased with this product. We have it set on a tray, it doesnt feel too wobbly. We did not install the stabilizing brackets that came with it. We will keep them incase we do need to use them. It is sturdy and should hold 1 person long enough to put on some shoes but I would not use it for long term sitting just because Im not sure its built solely for that. I still have to use a separate coat rack and shoe mat for other shoes just because there are so many in my household. That being said, I love it and its perfect for me.

This is great ! Very sturdy. Thoughtfully packaged. I mean when you first look at the instructions I was considering asking my Husband to help.. ( it even tells you it may take two. lol ) The packaging and directions made it simple %26 very easy to do. There's a red ribbon attached to the outer box that leads to a smaller box of all the screws that's also labeled neatly. So all he did was hangout and talk to me. I'm guessing it took about 30 minutes. I'm hoping to get another one for the laundry room !
