Merax Farmhouse Wood Hall Tree with Shoe Bench and 2 Drawers, 4-in-1 Coat Rack with 6 Hooks for Entrance, Hallway, Mudroom Black

Exactly what I was looking for. It’s perfect and fits exactly where I wanted. Putting together is okay but it took my husband and I awhile to do it

Overall, a good mudroom hutch. I had been looking for a few months and I found this one which was a good price, and had overall good reviews. When we received the box, it was in pretty good condition, and no pieces were damaged. The instructions were overall clear and it took my fiancé around three hours to assemble, a few pieces being frustrating, but would be easier with two people. Once it was put together, we noticed a few small nicks/cheap parts in the pieces, but they were minor. Overall it seems pretty sturdy and fit the space we were looking perfectly! I would purchase this item again, and I would recommend purchasing it as it is a good price for the product!

Love, love, love! I have had this for almost a year and it has been a game changer! Easy to put together if you have half a brain, color matches the description. Stability is pretty good, the hangers aren’t strong enough to hold multiple back packs with weight. We use this primarily for coats and one school backpacks. You can adjust the bottom shelves for 4 small sections for shoes to two compartments for boots, etc. if you pair the top cubbies with baskets you get even more storage!

Exactly what I was looking for in the space we needed it - it fit perfectly. Everyone that comes to our house has commented on how beautiful it is! The directions were easy to follow and one person could definitely put this together by themselves. The storage capacity is great and the hooks are very convenient. I agree that the back part of the board is cheaper material than the rest of it, but as long as you are careful putting the nails in, you shouldn't have any issues with the look or functionality. Would definitely buy again!

LOVE this mud room organizer!! If you're debating on buying it, do it, you won't be disappointed! But I'm going to be honest, it took two of us about 6 hours from start to finish, it's not the easiest thing to put together. The bottom half was frustrating at times, directions don't really specify which way the boards need to go from front/back, but after turning a few other way and some trial and error, we finally got the bottom half done and then the top half went much smoother. It looks beautiful and is exactly what we were looking for.

It’s fairly cheaply made but it went together easily. Not sure it will last too long, but serves the purpose for now.

BUYER BEWARE SCAM ALERT: Product was cheap looking so I returned the product and seller would not issue refund, claiming they received the wrong product which is incorrect and unethical. The seller then charged me again for the product still without refunding the 1st time.

I bought this hall tree because the dimensions were exactly what I needed for my entryway space, and visually, it fits the farmhouse aesthetic flawlessly. The layout with the hooks and the 2 bottom drawers is great for keeping coats and shoes organized. However, the overall structural build leaves a bit to be desired. The main drawback is that the material is on the flimsier side. Specifically, the bench piece feels a bit thin. While it's perfectly fine for sitting down for a few seconds to kick off your boots, it flexes more than it should, and the material really should be thicker and sturdier if it’s going to be sat on daily by adults. The Installation & Baseboard Hack: If you have standard baseboard trim in your hallway, you are going to run into a mounting issue. This unit has a completely flat back with no cutout at the bottom to accommodate trim, and the manufacturer doesn't include any wall spacers. Because the baseboard pushes the bottom of the unit away from the wall, the top sits an inch out, making the included anti-tip hardware useless out of the box. Because a tall unit like this must be anchored, I ended up mounting a 1x3 wood furring strip to the back of the frame to bridge that gap. This allowed me to screw it securely into the wall studs despite the baseboard offset. Pros: Exact, true-to-size dimensions that look great in tight entryways. The 2 large bottom drawers slide smoothly and swallow up a lot of clutter. Hooks provide plenty of hanging space. Cons: Engineered wood feels a bit lightweight; the bench needs more structural reinforcement. No consideration given for baseboard clearance during wall mounting. The Verdict: If you are handy enough to manage a quick DIY workaround to anchor it to the wall, it looks beautiful and functions well as a mudroom organizer. Just be gentle with the bench during daily use.
