Ok, so its a bit on the short side, but so am I. :-) This hall tree is pretty, sturdy, HEAVY, and rock solid. Im a little 66 year old lady, and I put the top (down to the bench seat) together by myself. It became too heavy to move easily, so hubs finished it for me when he came home from work. For those who had issues with putting this together, do what I did - READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY FIRST. Then, set everything out by number, and READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AGAIN. If you do this, it will go together smoothly. The instructions also tell you not to use power tools when assembling - that is so that you dont crack the few pieces that are particle board. So, if I can do it, you can do it, and when you are done, youll have a lovely hall tree where you can hang coats, umbrellas, totes, and store shoes. Adding some bling to the top shelves added to the height. If you are wondering where I got the shoe trays (they are a PERFECT fit!), they are Iron Gate - 2 Pack - Compact Boot Tray - 16x18 Inch. Exactly fit in the shoe bin. Youre welcome. :-)
I LOVE this hall tree!!
