Good for a lot of shoes
By Elizabeth Tran on Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2022
I just opened and put the rack together today. I do see what some of the reviews mean when they say it’s flimsy, but I don’t think this would be a problem if you put together the product correctly. I would recommend putting the rack together on hard floors, rather than carpet. The plastic makes it hard for you to put the rods in without a stable surface. Really make sure that all the rods are all the way in. Also, the hinges seemed a little big, but you can adjust them to fit your door (if it’s smaller than the hinges). However, the way the hinges are, you have to have them facing the direction the door closes in. The back of the hinges bulk outward so they will make it a little harder to close your door if you have that part in between the door and the doorframe. This is only important if you want to put your shoe rack in a specific place. I wanted the shoe rack on my room door facing inside my room, but because of the hinges, the shoe rack would’ve face on the outside of my room. I ended up just moving the shoe rack onto my closet door, but it’s something to think about. Ultimately, you could have the shoe rack facing whatever direction, but it bothers me if the door doesn’t open/close smoothly. The shoe rack also comes with these tiny but super sticky Velcro to put between the bottom of the rack and the door. I noticed that my rack didn’t sit evenly on my door (probably due to how to put it together or something), but the Velcro fixed this problem. Overall, it’s a good shoe rack if you have a lot of shoes and little space. I’ll update if it starts falling apart.Edit: it’s been about 3-4 months. The shoe rack is still holding. But just make sure you have the bottom of the rack secured to the door. The weight of your shoes will push against the door and the rack will end up lifting forwards and your shoes on the bottom shelves will fall through. I added an image showing this

Appalled by poor quality
By Amanda on Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2022
I have never written a review before, but I felt so strongly about the poor quality of this product that I had to write one. I originally bought this to fit over my closet door in my new apartment. The sides were easily assembled because you only had to snap three pieces together. After laying one of the sides face up, I went to secure the poles into the openings (you simply push down until it is snug in the hole), and the poles would not stay in place. The poles that were in the openings on the side stayed in okay, but the ones that went into the foldable racks did not stay upright at all, and they were not secure in the openings. Once I had managed to get most of the poles upright, the instructions said to take the other side piece, lay it on top of the poles, and fit the poles into the new openings. No matter what I tried, they would not fit in. I was lucky if I got two to stay in at the same time. The poles that went in the foldable racks were not long enough to reach the other opening, so those were not usable. Then we couldn't even get the main poles to stay in the other side of the rack. Not sure how this claims to be "easy to assemble."Then, as we were trying to disassemble the rack to return, the plastic was easily breaking, and one of the foldable rack arms nearly fell off. Extremely disappointed in this product, especially since I was so looking forward to being able to store my boots and shoes on a single rack in my closet!
