[quote=\"TheAnswer\"]I absolutely love this shoe cabinet

Will give them a call to see if they have it in stock..
Thanks for all your help..

For Vhive and Scanteak.. I will pop by to take a look too..

Just checked this morning. There are 9 levels, each level can take 3 pairs = 27 pairs. But take note that the height of every level is not exactly the same. A few levels have more space (higher height) so can put taller shoes comfortably, and a few levels are tighter, and for these levels must be more careful when putting/taking shoes. Once I was in a hurry and trying to put a pair in and my finger suffered a minor cut when brushed against the wood of the level above.

It's just like Ikea, in that if you or your family finds joy in assembling furniture, then there is added incentive to get this. Not very difficult to assemble if you have electric screwdriver (or drill that can double as one) as there are quite a lot of screws. Bit heavy to carry box home though. I needed a trolley

[quote=\"TheAnswer\"]Thank you atrecord

you're welcome. if you want, i can take a photo of the shoe cabinet this evening.

it's practical, not classy though.

and i'll say quite cheap, provided you can pick it up yourself and is willing to spend the time to assemble it - but it did require some strength and preferably with the right tools.

For Vhive and Scanteak, do they sell shoe cabinets too?

I visited both a couple of months back looking for other things, and I think there were shoe cabinets at Vhive but not at Scanteak. You can call them up and ask before you decide to go.

I eventually got one that has I think 8 levels that can hold 3 pairs at each level, so can hold 24 pairs. it was the largest off the rack type we could find, but it's the practical and affordable (i.e. not branded, nice, atas type). Only around $100 over i remember, need to self collect and self-assemble at this price. About 1.8 m tall. Got it from a bomb shelter in Bishan (behind Salvation Army), company name is Ray-line. They used to advertise in Sat's Life, quite small ad.

Do you happen to have their contact number? TIA

[quote=\"atrecord\"]People once told me that Ikea products have a shelf-life of 2 yr. But the billy book shelf i bought in 2000 is still doing ok, although it has indeed sagged a little bit.


Scantek should be solid wood.

For shoe cabinet, do you need one that is good looking, cheap, or one that can hold a lot of shoes?

I spent a fair bit of time looking for shoe cabinets so do indeed have some recommendations...

:scratchhead: I need one that can hold a lot of shoes
Otherwise how to buy new shoes right?
