This hall tree is beautiful and had stood up to abuse very well. Our 3-year old is able to lift the seat to put her shoes in, and the hinges dont let the seat slam back down. Its got enough room for several pairs of shoes in the bottom, and the compartments in the top are large enough to hold my purse on one side and all of my husbands stuff (wallet, watch, phone, several sets of keys, random stuff from the hardware store, etc). I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because it was difficult to put together and some of the pieces had to be engineered because the drill holes didnt match up very well. But very sturdy and nice looking.
