This shoe cupboard for me was the quasi Komprpmiss between chic and practical. Nevertheless, I have not promised a lot due to reviews. I realized that I can not expect top quality for 40 Euro, the approximately 130 to 170 Euros, Ikea Shoe cabinets also not earth-shattering look better or higher quality. In addition, I did not want to spend just under 350 euros for 2 shoe racks.
Now for the cabinets:
The delivery success quickly. 2 to 3 working days, delivery by DPD with status tracking, which completely goes fine. The packets looked indeed taken out and caved in at the corners, after opening but came the relief. The content is good with lots of Styrofoam verpakt and between individual panels are always placed protectors. To follow all the plates arrived almost intact. For quality and appearance, I must say that I have for 40 euros expected significantly less!
The blueprint is presented succinctly graphically. All parts, ie the screws are clearly marked with numbers or letters. The assignment and the structure has been very light chamber, even for beginners. The quality of the items is not high, but perfectly adequate. I used to assemble the small cordless screwdriver from Bosch (IXO 5), with the special essays namely the angle and the edge attachment, which proved to be extremely useful, since the access to the rear screws in shoe trucks is very difficult otherwise. For the first cabinet I have approximately 1 hour and for the 2nd used considerably less, Felt 30 minutes.
The look I like good to very good. They are relatively stable, but I have two juxtaposed against the wall and the two bolted from behind by a piece of sheet metal, which was already at each other. Thus, they are more stable. The best would have to mount with the supplied mounting piece the cabinet to the wall, you can see then, however, the metal piece, as this can be fixed by rear wall of the cabinet only upwards or sideways to the wall.
The 3 shoe tipper open very easily and are stable. Each truck has two rows, which are arranged one above the other and can hold 5 to 6 pairs of shoes. In the bottom row shoes match up. Size 43, depending on the shoe style may also be greater. This was me before buying clear because you can see it on the one in the pictures, and 2. I have a similar cabinet. Woman Schuche with size 38-39 also found in the top row easily their seats. These cabinets have 4 each plastic feet about 5 cm high, which I find very convenient. The cabinets are white front and side kept in a nice, not the typical book. with just 24 cm depth it is ideal for a narrow hallway and light up the room.
Overall, I forgive 5 stars, despite minor shortcomings, because the price / performance ratio is as mentioned top. One should just let a little before buying, and above all for the price of 40 euros (at Ebay, the same seller) no high quality Erstklasseware expect that this also looks brilliant;) Then you will be very satisfied with it.
One criticism would be the packaging: The excessive amount of padding also much waste is produced in the form of plastic film and cardboard material, what the environment is not just good for ...
