    Your shoebox-sized home is about to feel a whooole a lot bigger.

    1. sectional with a storage chaise that's great for those living in small spaces. This comfy couch not only has room for storage, but it also has built-in cup holders *and* pulls out into a bed, too! Great for guests, but even better for lounging on a lazy Sunday. 😌

    Lizeth, Wayfair Customer / Wayfair

    Promising reviews: "I love the size of this couch! It fits absolutely perfectly in my very small living room. I really like that you can put the long part with the storage on either side of the couch to suit your rooms needs. Super easy to put together. I had it done by myself in maybe 20 minutes...It's very firm but I primarily use it with the sofa bed part pulled out and lay down on it to watch TV. The sofa bed part is such a wonderful option. And I love the storage too. Overall, happy with the purchase!" —Anonymous Wayfair Customer

    "Awesome couch! Definitely firm but still comfortable. The functionality is amazing! Perfect for my apartment and was super easy to assemble!" —Hope

    Promising review: "I bought two of these as side tables beside our couch. I love how sleek they look, plus having an extra storage drawer with plugs for our phones is great! I charge my phone and watch while we watch TV in the evenings... It fits everything I need: remotes, tissues, and coaster for cups." —Jessica

    "Bought this table for a sun porch that currently has limited electrical outlets. It's easy to put together, came well packaged, and the right size for in between furniture... It offers a great deal of flexibility with what I want to plug in. I currently have a timer plugged in for a lamp, I'm able to charge two phones, and still have an outlet available for something else if needed. Been using for a couple of months now and very happy with the product." —gone2020

    Get it from Amazon for $41.87+ (available in 16 colors).

    Each shelf holds up to 15 pounds, and reviewers recommend putting your largest, heaviest books at the bottom of each shelf for more support.

    Promising reviews: "These are so much fun! We ordered the small size, which fits standard hardback books (approximately five to seven hardbacks in my experience). They're a great way to add some extra storage to our very small home, and we've placed them in our hallway so people ask us about them all the time. I'd highly recommend!" —LaBuenaVidaMere

    "I bought two of these in 2010 and in the last 10 years I've used them in three different apartments. I just put them up in apartment number three and was once again blown away with how awesome they look. Every time I put them up it's like 'WOW WOW WOW these are AMAAAZZINNGGG!!' If you love decorating with books, this is a must buy!"  —Jlands

    Promising review: "I love these shelves! So far they have lasted me a couple of years, and I have purchased different versions of this shelf set. I use them for my kitchen storage (plates, spices, canisters) as well as home storage (games and DVDs, game systems, etc). They are very easy to assemble! I would say my items sitting on the shelves currently aren't over 30 lbs total so it's sturdy." —Alicia

    the same reviewer showing the organizer collapsed

    Promising review: "I am very pleased with these hangers! I first bought one to try it with my boyfriend’s pants, and I loved them so I had to buy another one. The material of the part where you place the pants prevents any type of clothing from sliding off. Saves a lot of space on my closet and was easy to install, took me less than two minutes. The hangers come with the tool necessary and an extra piece that holds the rods in case you lose one. Overall very happy with the results, will buy again if I need more!" —Lizette Lopez

    Promising review: "I love my Saemoza sofa bed. ... It's very comfortable and comes with a wonderful soft matching pillow. The sofa bed folds up easily and conveniently to the size of an ottoman for a space saver. ... I put it in the living room to watch movies on my projector screen while laying on it! Its just a wonderful idea, and I love the color and the softness of the material! Also, it's, like, 75 lbs, so I pull it in the other room of the house with no help." —Twilite S. Appel

    a photo of the desk folded and up right

    Promising review: "Once I started to work from home full time, I needed a desk to fit in my small apartment. This desk does the job — small, lightweight, easy to assemble. Now that I have been using it for two-plus months, I feel like It could've been deeper since I have a 34-inch monitor and using a laptop in front of it (to type). I have scooted my monitor to hang 2 inches off of the back and using the wall to help hold the monitor up and in place. This desk would be PERFECT if it was a little deeper, but overall, it's an awesome desk." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $62.99+ (available in three colors).

    13. A litter box enclosure disguised as furniture — perhaps one of the most genius inventions for pet parents. With its extra large size, it's big enough to house the litter box, the litter bag, treats, and more. Some reviewers say it's perfect for bunnies too!

    Promising reviews: "I have gotten so many compliments on this without my guests knowing a litter box is inside. It elevates the aesthetic of my living room and it makes having an indoor cat look classy and clean. Highly recommend!! Your cat will love it too!" —Savanna Ogilvie

    "I agonized over which cat furniture to choose to hide my cat's litter box when moving to a smaller apartment space...I am happy I went with this one, which looks really nice. The instructions were surprisingly good and easy to follow; putting it together was simple. You can put the door on either side, and you can also leave out the middle part to fit a larger box." —Wynne

    Get it from Amazon for $129.99+ (available in six colors).

    14. A contemporary wooden coffee table with a hidden storage compartment and lift top perfect for eating dinner or working from home.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "Absolutely beautiful! Light, but sturdy enough, sleek, and practical. I'm studying these days to pass some important exams and use both my laptop and notebook at the same time. We are living in a small apartment and don't have enough space to buy another desk for my studying. This wonderful table solved the problem. I can store my laptop, notebooks, pens, and notes in the compartment under the lift top and during the day I just lift the top, and voila! It's a desk! The springs are very well made and when you lift the top up to the end, it's stable and can bear enough weight to write on it or rest your elbows over it without pushing it down. It also has a smaller sliding top on the right side with storage space underneath. We put our coasters and some other small routine items there. All in all, We love this multi-purpose and beautiful table and are happy with this purchase."  —mandy

    Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in three colors).

    15. A versatile velvet storage ottoman featuring a removable top so you'll have extra room for magazines, toys, and more. The top is flippable too, with a flat wood surface on one side that can be used as a side table.

This is a must-buy. If you are wondering if you should buy this item, buy it buy it. If I need more foot stools I will definitely buy this one again. Love it." —Jennifer fry

    "This was the easiest thing to assemble and it's so nice! It's perfect as a small side table to a chair in our small living room. It looks more high-end than expected because of the velvet pleats. The flip top and storage are versatile and it has an overall stylish look." —Andrea

    Get it from Amazon for $42.99 (available in 10 colors).

    16. Or a luxe flip-top storage bench that'll fit way more than just a few magazines. It's the perfect place for extra sheets, bedding, and blankets, or even to hide small work-out equipment and the overflowing shoe collection that somehow keeps growing (guilty).

    Amazon

    You can use these for so much more than clothing! Think craft supplies, extra toiletries, shoes...basically whatever you have too much of.

    Promising review: "These storage bags are fantastic. I live in a small apartment where storage space is at a premium. I use these to store my Costco toilet paper and paper towels so I don't need to make as many trips to the store. It keeps them in pristine condition and out of sight. The handles make them easy to pull in and out, and they fold up nicely when not in use. I'm thinking about getting two more since four will fit under my queen bed." —Kimberly Dorn

    Get it from Amazon for $12.97+ (available in four colors and larger packs).

    18. A sleek and ~sneaky~ shoe-storage cabinet that's absolutely genius to have at your entryway. There'll be no more clutter and you've got a surface for keys, mail, and essentials on top.

    Reviewers also use this as a media console to store games and electronics, too. Like I said...genius!

    Promising review: "This shoe storage organizer is great quality, stylish and purposeful. No longer our shoes will be left in the middle of our open area they will have a place to be. I would recommend this piece to anyone looking to upscale their home. Love the color and design. 💛" —Melissa

    Get it from Amazon for $126.99+ (available in four colors).

    19. A cabinet door organizer so you don't have to look at the bright and awkwardly shaped plastic wrap boxes or cutting boards cluttering your countertop.

    Different reviewer using organizer for five cutting boards

    Promising review: "This organizer is so useful! I recently moved and ended up with a much smaller kitchen, so I've been doing everything I can to make sure there's a place for everything and no wasted space. Luckily, I have pretty wide cabinets, so this works out perfectly. I have one holding my cutting boards (four standard plastic boards) and another holding my foil, cling wrap, and parchment paper boxes. The organizer is super easy to assemble and it's completely versatile. Hang it over the cabinet door or attach it to the wall/cabinet door, which means it's great for renters and owners." —Kerry

    Get it from Amazon for $16.97.

    20. Or an entire pantry door organizer that can be hung or mounted! The shelves are also easily adjustable to your liking.

    Some reviewers use it to organize their bathroom products too!

    Promising review: "I was looking for some extra storage options for my pantry. Since all the walls already have shelves and I was running out of space, the only possibility to create more storage was by the door. I originally found this product to be a bit pricey but I have to say it’s worth the money. It’s very simple, a child could 'assemble' it in under five minutes. It holds a lot of stuff, even heavy cans, you just have to space the heavy and lighter stuff out. I did not use the sticky strips and whatever else that came with it to secure it even better to the door, because just hanging it on the door makes it very stable. It’s a storage-lifesaver if you’re struggling with space!" —IslandLife

    Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three sizes).

    21. A shower curtain liner with built-in mesh pockets when there's zero space left on the tub rim or shower caddy. For people with no shelving in the shower, this is life changing!

    Promising review: "We are apartment living, so no one in the household could take a shower without crash/boom as you're knocking something down sitting on a shelf or the bathtub rim. This is a game changer. There are so many pockets with so much room in each I actually have space left over. My husband's back scrubber, my shampoo and hair care, my daughter's bubble baths, bath floofies, all fit with room to spare. And the pockets are all a nice height so I'm not crouching to find anything. The curtain is clear so I didn't have to change the 'pretty' one for decorative purposes. I am super pleased." —goodnite.graci

    Get it from Amazon for $14.60+ (available in two colors).

    22. An outlet shelf to give yourself extra space for things like toothbrushes and hair products without the loaded effort of finding perfectly sized shelves, finding studs in the wall, making sure everything is leveled, etc.

    a reviewer uses the shelf for a toothbrush and razor

    Promising review: "I absolutely love this thing! I have much less clutter on my sink thanks to this. If there's anyone not sure if it will fit due to an object, all you need is 1.25 inches of space between the edge of your existing outlet plate and the piece of furniture. I have a GFCI with a standard wall plate." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in four colors).

    23. An over-the-toilet shelving unit with two sturdy shelves hidden behind doors, giving you ample space for storing towels, toiletries, and all the cleaning products required to keep this place clean.

    Promising review: "Looks good, I like the doors especially [because they] hide all my hair stuff and toiletries. It doesn't jut out too far to get in the way of using toilet and comes with hardware to attach to wall which makes it feel super sturdy and secure." —Kindle Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $72.99+ (available in four colors).

    24. A hanging, portable, multilevel cat condo for homes where a cat tree will just take up too much space. This condo can easily be put away when needed, easily packed when moving, and just frees up so much floor space!

    The four-level cat condo, which has entrances/ peepholes on multiple floors, and attaches to the back of doors with built-in straps

    Promising reviews: "I purchased this because we live in a small home and our cat tree was taking up too much space in the living room. I am super happy with my purchase. I have three cats and they all go in it! In the photo [on the right] on the top is our 16-lb cat and it is holding him good! I was a bit worried when I saw how high it was off the ground but they jump into it easily! I love how much space it has saved me and how easy it was to assemble, it took me like three minutes. Really great material too. I think it is thicker than the canopy for my gazebo haha." —Ariel

    "I originally bought this 1.5 years ago because I wanted to give my kitty more space in our micro apartment and create a sort of ladder to the loft. It has since traveled around the country with the kitty and myself. It packs well during a move, is very simple to set up, and provides a nice, high, cozy place for her to watch the apartment from. I feel that this was the best thing I've gotten for her. I bought the small version because my kitty is small. At one point we lived with another, very large (16 lbs) cat who had trouble fitting into the kitty condo and could only fit in the bottom floor." —Rae-O

    Get it from Amazon $62.19+ (available in 3- and 5-story sizes, and in colors tan and gray).

    25. A baker's rack that provides extra counter space and storage space for all your kitchen essentials. You've got several shelves and even four hooks for hanging pans or cooking tools! 

    Promising review: "This thing is perfect, OK? I've got a studio apartment and don't really have a lot of room to work with. I had absolutely NO counter space, so this baking rack saved my life. I've got more room for groceries and plenty of prep space for getting food ready. You can fit a coffee pot, some containers of spices, and still have the vast majority of the space left over for prep space. The storage underneath is adjustable, so you can make the space between the lower and highest level larger or smaller. You easily could put a microwave on the bottom shelves and store other larger kitchen appliances." —Homeboy Gotcha

    Get it from Amazon for $55.71.

    26. Or a foldable kitchen island cart if you want something small and moveable. This will provide the extra counter space you need for meal prep without permanently taking up room in your kitchen.

    Promising review: "I have a tiny apartment with even tinier kitchen, so that means I needed something like this! It's just big enough to provide a decent workspace without overwhelming my tiny apartment. Plus, since it's on wheels, it can be tucked away when not in use, which is a bonus! The wood top has been varnished or lacquered, so it can't be used as a cutting surface, but that's OK, I just put my favorite cutting board on top of it, and it's all good!" —mperryckdcbd

    Get it from Amazon for $145.99+ (available in three colors).

    27. A gorgeous over-the-bed shelf — a fancy, way-more-functional-than-usual headboard for your personal oasis. On top of looking awesome, it'll give you some extra storage space for plants, books, and art that will make a HUGE difference.

Mirror + jewelry holder = game changer." —Linnette

    33. Dash compact air fryer that won't take up much counter space, but will make (or reheat) some amazing meals. BTW, it can also replace a couple of appliances, too. Say bye-bye to your old toaster. 👋

    Promising review: "Fantastic kitchen tool and well deserving of the hype. It’s helped me immensely when cooking meals in my kitchen, especially with side dishes such as brussel sprouts, cauliflower, and the ubiquitous fried potato. The Dash has removed all the stress of trying to get the timing right when preparing multiple dishes and cooks everything perfectly crisp on all sides. Getting tofu crisped has always been a struggle...but with this I’ve been able to get results that I’ve been trying for years...Highly recommended. It looks cool and doesn’t take up too much counter space either." —User of Consumer goods/bads

    BTW, one rack can hold up to nine standard size glasses.

    Promising review: "Overall very pleased with product. Found some floating shelves to match a cabinet. Then added these to make my custom wine stem rack. Quality better than expected and love the darker finish and not the standard Chrome option. These also were the right size for the width and depth of the Shelf. So far I've gotten several compliments." —Ms Lila

    Promising review: "These are great for storage! I put mine on the underside of a cabinet that hangs above our toilet, the bathroom has very little storage and this keeps things like Q-tips and cotton balls off the counter. Arrived fast and well-packaged, and very easy to install with the Command strips included. Also the magnets are very strong, clearly this will last for a long time." —Emily Fornshell

    40. wall-mounted scratching post made for cats who like scratching on vertical surfaces (couches, doors, etc.) and sturdy enough for even our chonky fur babies to use without worry of it wobbling around.

    This is made of sisal wood, which is stronger and sturdier than cheap cardboard (the common material for scratching posts). 

    Promising review: "The average cat scratching post is a hideous blend of string and beige carpet that sucks the soul from any room in which it is placed. Not this one. This scratching post is sleek, well made and unassuming, blending easily into any room. It arrived well packaged and was easy to install with the hardware provided. Furthermore, it is robustly constructed and stands up to constant use by my cat." —D James

    41. A foldable closet organizer great for things that you don't need year-round or on a daily basis. We're thinking extra sheets and towels, Christmas decorations, etc.

    Promising review: "Before I bought these zipper bags my closet was full, I had no room to move anything around. After these bags, I not only have more room, I was able to move all of my things from out of the hallway closet and into my bedroom!! I combined two closets in one, where I thought I had no room. Wow. You can easily have three pillows per bag, and I fit one extra-thick queen-size comforter into one bag. All things that didn't even fit in my closet beforehand. Now I have room for more!!" —Ms. Lawrence

    46. shelf organizer/extra hanging rod combo if you have tons of clothes but not enough closet space (same here, and the struggle is real!). This will give you room to store folded clothes in the four cubes up top *and* hanging ones using the rod below. 

    Promising review: "I’m basically obsessed with this thing already. I just got it today so I can’t speak to long term, but it’s amazing how much space this frees up. I have a 1940s house therefore 1940s tiny closets, and I need to get creative in my space organization. This thing was just what I needed to store sweaters on top and hang all other tops on bottom. You can’t see in the photo (above) but my closet has some space on both sides that’s just half filled now and used to be filled to the brim, barely able to move the hangers. This storage solution makes displaying the sweaters nicer than in drawers of my dresser or hanging. It honestly appears very sturdy and quality to me. The fabric is thick, the hooks and bar are both metal. All in all one of my favorite purchases from Amazon." —BobbyL

    47. A set of USB bed lifts to elevate your bed or couch and give yourself more space to shove boxes, clothes, and other knickknacks underneath. And the amazingly convenient outlets won't hurt either!
