Holds a lot
This is a great jewelry box. There are a few downsides to it. For example, on the inside of the door is the back of the mirror. Directly across from the mirror is the table/shelf that folds down. So that large area on the backside of the mirror cannot hold anything because it will hit the table/shelf and not allow the door to close. The section for rings is nice, but really, I don't think it needs to hold 100 rings. Half that would be good and then maybe an area to put something else. The shelves are pretty much so useless for anything that has any height. The very top shelf is only 2 inches tall, and the other shelves are 3 inches tall. The same for the drawers, they are only 3 inches tall. I had bracelets that would not hang on the rod that was designed to hold them, because they were too big and did not flex. So, the larger bracelets didn't allow the door to close. But they worked well on the small shelves. Earrings are a bit hard to hang. If the hoops are big, they have to be hung on an angle or the door won't close. Earring that have the hook, hang great. Earrings that have just a post are more difficult to hang. I just put the back on loose and then slip the post into the earring slot. Also, for hanging necklaces, the area is across from the shelves. So the necklaces have to be pretty basic. A chain with pendant works well, or pearls would work. But if you have a necklace that is big with large beads or so on, then they will hit on the shelves and the door won't close. There definitely is a theme, door won't close. BUT if you take that into consideration, you can make this work. I love the full-length mirror on the front. I can stand just a couple feet back and see my entire self, minus my feet, head to ankles. The interior mirror is very nice. I did have high hopes of being able to use it for my make-up area also. But since the shelves didn't work for make-up, I just bring in whatever I am going to use for the day. I can use the little shelf and mirror while getting ready, then put the make-up back in the bathroom. It still frees up the bathroom doing it that way. Even though there are a lot of things I wasn't happy with, all in all, this is a nice jewelry box. It is very sturdy, and it was a cinch to put the hangers on and put over the door. I would definitely recommend this jewelry box but be aware that the shelves are tiny, and it is like a puzzle figuring out what will fit so the door will close. But it is very nice looking. It does lock and it comes with 2 keys. I don't lock it daily, and I have had no issues with the door swinging open. It closes very firmly. Read more
