SoBuy Shoe Storage Bench with Seat Cushion & Flip Drawer 61cm Wide Hallway

I knew this would come 'flat pack' and I was kind of dreading assembling it. However, it was quite easy. I gave myself time set all pieces out and matched them to the instructions. It didn't take long at all and after just one error on my part (easily rectified), my storage box/seat was complete. It looks good, is sturdy and provides me with a much needed seat to use whist putting my shoes on. I don't have much room (goes behind my back door), and the slim design fits perfectly. It fits around 3 pairs of small shoes on each 'shelf' (so 6prs in all). It was very well packaged but the plastic cover on the seat cushion was torn a little on the top and this affected the weave of the cushion but other than that, the sturdiness of the completed bench makes it worth the money.

Brilliant item looks much more expensive than it was. Very clear instructions and pieces numbered helps enormously. Only issue cushion slips nothing to hold it in situ. We put double sided sticky tape under cushion not brilliant but helps.

Excellent value for money. This is a very sturdy and well designed piece of furniture! We have a tiny flat with a narrow hallway and just needed somewhere to sit to put shoes on. It took me about an hour to an hour and a half to put together by myself. The instructions were easy to follow. The finished product looks very nice and functions well. The only thing I would say is it is better for smaller shoes, as the storage space inside is quite tight, but the middle “shelf” is removable so when my son’s feet grow too large I will just take that out and hopefully the shoes will fit in there!

Its a really lovely item, it was the only one in black and the extra width I could find. Most others are not as wide or much wider which wouldnt have been suitable for me. It looks great, was easy to build and it has really decent wood. But one star off because you cant fasten the cushion to the seat so it constantly keeps moving. I dont get it...do all these type of things just have a cushion that sits on it and slides about? I mean yes i can wash it easy but it everytime you sit on it, you have to adjust its position again.

This is a great item. I brought to place in my camper van and it fits lovely. The seat is an added bonus. The picture showed a grey cushion but its more blue which I was even more pleased with. Its not made to store loads. We have to fishing boots in (largest a 9) i dont believe you would get any larger size in there with it closing, and 2 pairs of slippers. This is all we needed it for so ideal for us. Its very solid and well made and looks more expensive. Im very happy with it

As described, arrived quickly, well packaged, all parts identified with small stickers with lettering or numbers, multiple bags of screws and bits, all contained an extra screw or bit. Instructions fairly straight-forward to build, I built it myself, no help required as small enough and light enough to manoeuvre during building process. Practical, and has a handy little drawer on one side, and a hanging hook on the other side, although not all colours appear to have this feature. Can fit around 4 pairs of adult shoes easily. Trainers are more of a squeeze but can be done if the middle shelf (adjustable) is on the upper setting and the trainers placed on the lower shelf, we needed to squish down the top part of the trainers, but fits fine then. I decided to omit screwing in place the adjustable middle shelf, as it is easier to adjust slotting in and out of its runners if need be. I also added sticky-backed velcro underneath the seat cushion to stop it sliding around, as have other reviewers done. Fits perfectly in a corner of my hallway. I have jazzed mine up by adding some pretty furniture transfer stickers to the front panel, which makes it pop out more and actually now matches an existing piece of furniture that already had a similar design. Very happy with my unit, good value for money, would recommend.

Very happy with it ,easy to put it together and looks lovely..

Paint missing on the front of unit

Bonne qualité, pas de difficulté particulière au montage. Tient bien dans le temps je l’ai depuis plusieurs mois. On peut rentrer 4 paires au total voire 5 si on met une chaussure de plus sur chaque étage. Complète bien mon meuble à chaussures d’entrée.

Väldigt fin, men tog lång tid att montera.

The sitting part is not fixed to the shoe rack, it easily falls.

Bonito y fácil de montar, vienen tornillos d sobra y las piezas numeradas.

Het schoenenkastje ziet er mooi uit en past goed in mijn interieur. De uitstraling is modern en de afwerking van het ontwerp oogt netjes. Helaas stopte de positieve ervaring daar. Bij het uitpakken ontdekte ik dat vrijwel alle houten onderdelen bedekt waren met een geelachtige substantie, vermoedelijk schimmel. Dit maakte het noodzakelijk om het kastje eerst volledig schoon te maken en te behandelen met schimmelbestrijdingsmiddel. Dit is natuurlijk niet wat je verwacht van een nieuw product. Daarnaast waren er aan de buitenkant van het kastje meerdere stickers aangebracht, waaronder een QR-code en de naam van het bedrijf. Bij het verwijderen hiervan blijft er lijm achter op het oppervlak, wat alleen met schrobben verwijderd kon worden. Dit tastte de gebruikservaring verder aan. Ik begrijp die stickers niet! De doos waarin het kastje werd geleverd, was bovendien te zwaar en onhandig van formaat om zelf naar een retourpunt te brengen. Hierdoor voelde ik mij verplicht het kastje te houden, ondanks de gebreken. Ik kan dit product helaas niet aanbevelen.
