Oceanstar 2-Tier Bamboo Shoe Rack, Brown, SR1309

You reviewer people almost scared me off this delightful little 20-buck rack, so tortuous were your descriptions of putting the darn thing together. Split wood! Screws that don't fit! No hardware! Perhaps the manufacturers heard you all and adjusted their tools. Perhaps a couple of those units were just one-offs, slapped together in the wrong factory on an off day. Perhaps some of you were drunk. But all I can say is that the box that arrived at my house yesterday contained four sturdy pieces of bamboo, plus a sweet little packet of brass screws that fit neatly into the pre-drilled holes on both shelves and sides. Also in the bag: A darling little hex wrench with which to drill those screws in. I put it together in five minutes, no lie. It fits our entry way like an interior designer came over and put it there.So, maybe if you're super reckless with the screwing part you might split some wood. I could see that happening, sure. But you'd really have to be going for it. Like deliberately not matching the holes up, or not paying attention to whether the screws are going in at an angle. Or you'd have to be drunk. But I suspect if that were the case you'd be a wreck trying to assemble Ikea or Home Reserve or Pottery Barn or any of the other seemingly hundreds of furniture items I've put together since we upsized a month ago from apartment to house. Because I don't think any furniture item could be easier to assemble than this one. I even drank a beer while I did it, and it went just fine. Then I went and order another one for my closet.

This is easy to assemble and lightweight. Shoes and sneakers fit easily on the 2 shelves and sandals fit underneath the lowest shelf. Each shelf holds 3 pairs of adult shoes. Our closet went from clutter to organization in the time that it took to assemble the racks and place the shoes on them.We are purchasing 2 more racks for another closet.

Sturdy, functional, and good value for the price.

I thought this item was a bit pricey, but it fits my space perfectly and looks good so for me it’s worth it. Self assembly, sturdy end result. Holds 6 pairs of my shoes neatly by the door.

This is the second time ordering this product. Very sturdy, easy to stack. The price makes this a wonderful purchase. I use these stacked in my sewing room to hold Sterlite storage containers with sewing supplies. Would also make good book shelves.

For the price, it's a nice looking storage unit.

Easy to assemble and sturdy enough for shoes. A good value. Would buy again, would recommend to a friend!

It’s exactly what I expected, super sturdy shoe rack under the shelf. Very easy to assemble, can’t be more happy.
