This Hall Tree has, thus far, lived up to expectations. We have very active children, who are in and out all day, and this piece of furniture has allowed a space for them to get snow/rain and everyday gear, on and off without blocking our entryway. They now have a space where they can sit and gear up. The under seat storage is perfect for snow/barn boots. We did purchase some heavy duty liner so that wet boots would not warp or damage the floor of cubbies. We have also decided to add a few more coat hooks.
We were somewhat concerned when it took 2 men and a dolly, to deliver this to us from the delivery truck. And rightly so. It is VERY HEAVY. And while it is doable to assemble this single/handed, it is MUCH EASIER if you have a second person available. The directions were a little confusing at first, but if you pay close attention to the pictures and their orientation, assembly will be much easier. Our 2 man crew had this completely assembled in just under 90 min.
We are very happy with the sturdiness and storage capacity of this unit, and it is very esthetically pleasing, too. Highly recommend this hall tree. While there are others a bit less expensive, we are totally satisfied with this purchase.
Well worth the money.
