    a reviewer uses it as a side table

    The smaller table fits inside the larger one, so when they're not being used you can gain some extra space.

    Promising review: "I’m obsessed with these tables! The tall one comes high enough to enjoy coffee or to eat at. My favorite part about these tables are the storage! I love them because they don’t take up a ton of room and are easy to move around! Super happy with these!" —Andrew Vinh Tran

    "Absolutely love these tables. Moved into a smaller home and needed different storage options. These work perfect for toy storage and a coffee table alternative with no sharp edges for my babies to get hurt on!" —heather

    Get a set of two from Amazon for $94+ (available in black, grey, cherry, brown, and white).

    2. bedding hanger to store your favorite quilts, comforters, and blankets so they're always available for easy access, and not stacked so high on a shelf that there's no way any of those blankets are coming down.

    Promising review: "Perfect! I have now bought four of them because everyone who sees it wants it. Perfect for hanging a quilt, throw, bedspread, etc. when it’s not needed. Well made, well shipped, arrived quickly with no issues whatsoever. I am very happy with this purchase." —Sandy

    3. Or! A bedding holder that'll help you organize your sheets, blankets, and comforters as 👏 easily 👏 as 👏 possible.

    You use this by loosening the bag's drawstring and placing place unfolded sheets inside with the pillowcases loaded on top. Select the current sheet size from the indicator strap (T for Twin, F for Full, Q for Queen, and K for King). Close the bag  and store it on a shelf in your closet. Each small bag can hold up to one full set of king-size sheets, pillowcases included. The medium and large bags can hold more inside, like blankets, pillow toppers, and lightweight comforters.

    Bumble Made is a small business that created the O-Sheet bedding holder for sheets, pillowcases, and other linens. It is based in Washington State.

    Promising review: "This is literally one of the best products I've ever purchased. It keeps my sheets so organized, good quality, and makes my life so much easier. I will definitely be buying more for the larger blankets and spare room sheets! Thank you!" —Jennifer Briney

    Get it from Bumble Made on Etsy for $25+ (available in three sizes and four colors).

    4. A sofa arm caddy for keeping everything you need (~remote, phone, glasses...Kindle, lip balm, tissues??~) within easy reach instead of lost between the cushions, tangled up in a blanket, or TBH in some alternate dimension.

    It also fits under a seat cushion or a mattress.

    Promising reviews: "Our remotes and reading glasses were always missing when needed. I saw this over the couch arm organizer and ordered. It was just what we needed. The slip resistant backing keeps it in place. There are four small pockets for remotes/glasses and one large pocket for bigger items." —Mary H Lombard

    "Perfect for my needs. I had surgery on my right hand and needed a place for the items I would need during recovery while my hand is splinted. I purchased this armrest organizer to put on the left side of my recliner and it works perfectly! This organizer hasn't slipped at all and I'm pleased with the smooth cotton fabric. There is plenty of room for the items I need like my phone, iPad, TV remote, etc." —CLH

    Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in 15 colors).

    5. A hanging storage tray that you can dangle below an existing shelf to gain *more organizing space* for smaller items like purses, gloves, scarves, or wallets.

    Promising review: "Amazing if this fits your closet shelf, it works great for small bags and fanny pack-sized purses. Takes away so much clutter. Highly recommend." —A

    Get it from Amazon for $23.49 (also available in sets of two or four).

    6. A set of six over-the-door shelves for easily storing anything from hair accessories to shoes to pantry items to toys. Since it doesn't take up extra room on the floor, it'll help you *really* maximize space in your apartment.

    The over-the-door shelves with various items inside
    The over-the-door rack filled with shoes

    Promising reviews: "Studio apartment living doesn’t provide much space for a lot of furniture or closet space, so you gotta be creative in utilizing what space you have to work with to get the type of storage you need. I use this to organize stuff needed before heading out the door: winter gloves, lint rollers, anti-static spray, face masks, reusable shopping bags, doggie piddle pads. Was on the fence about ordering this, but it’s turned out to be a wise decision! It’s worth noting that it’s very sturdy, hangs straight (particularly when filled), and when needed can wipe or vacuum it. Clever invention, especially for those of us renters who are not allowed to attach shelving with hardware." —emmodiva

    "I can't stop buying these! We downsized from a condo to a smaller apartment and needed a place for smaller items since we lost some drawer and shelf space. Got one of these for the front hall closet to organize gloves, scarves, etc. and another for our bedroom closet to organize hubby's socks, briefs, etc. I liked them so much that I bought a third for my leggings and socks, so we now have two side-by-side on our bedroom closet door. Easy to assemble, well-made, clear plastic windows on the compartments so that you can see the contents, and versatile (we will be able to use these no matter where we live, since they fit easily over a standard door). Be sure you don't discard the cardboard pieces--those fit into the sides of the compartments to stabilize them." —woonhhi

    Get it from Amazon for $18.97 (available in seven colors).

    7. A mail organizer with helpful key hooks so you can stash your mail, keys, and even hats and purses by the door so they're ready to go when you are (and so you don't misplace them right before you have to leave again).

    Reviewer's clear mail organizer with hanging keys

    Promising reviews: "Perfect little organizer. Exactly what we needed to get the mail off the kitchen table. It holds at least a week's worth of mail. You can also use two pairs of medium Command strips to put it up instead of drilling holes. If you're going to hang keys and have mail in it I would say use more command strips." —Erin

    "Useful product that does what it's supposed to do. We love this thing. Fits our space perfectly, holds keys and incoming mail, easy to install. Exactly what I was looking for at this price. Chose it because others were too large for the slim area or too pricey. This one does the trick!" —Claire

    Get it from Amazon for $7+ (available in four colors).

    8. An ingenious over-the-door laundry hamper for making it *as easy as possible* to clear your floor of dirty towels and clothes — and for giving you back the limited apartment space that a sagging laundry basket would've taken up on the floor. 

    Promising review: "Huge space saver. I live in a VERY small apartment, so floor space is limited. I have an amazing system in place using this over-the-door hamper that keeps my house looking clean and organized. Having the hole at the top to throw clothes in is so easy. Loading the washing machine is also really easy as it has a zipper at the bottom to allow the clothes to fall right in. 10 out of 10, would buy more in the future!" —Stephanie Sharp

    Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in four colors and sets of one and two).

    9. A pack of six Command cord bundlers so you can once and for all get a handle on the abundance of jumbled electronics and appliance cords in your apartment. A world exists beyond the knotted mass of cables and chargers that have tangled up on your floor and formed one massive snake. I promise! 

    A reviewer's photo of the cord bundler attached to the back of a KitchenAid
    A reviewer's photo of the cord organizer being used on a small fan

    The bundlers work with damage-free adhesive.

    Promising review: "I have one of these attached to almost every cord-having thing I own and for maybe $30 in total I feel like my whole life got a face lift. My stand mixer looks better on the counter and it stays clean even when everything else is a mess. My space heaters store so neatly in the linen closet. I have an HDMI cord bundled to the back of each TV. There's a bundler stuck between my car's dash and console which holds two phone chargers. Truly, especially for the price, I could not recommend something more highly." —Amber Stewart

    Get it from Amazon for $10.13.

    10. And a wooden cable organizer you can stick onto your desk to keep your charging cables neat and at-the-ready — which will also make concentrating on your work to-do-list way easier.

    Promising review: "The cable organizer I purchased was exactly what I was hoping for! I adhered it to the side of my end table and now I don't have to worry about my charging cords being on the floor, they are organized, out of the way and easy to find when I need them. And, no more knots in them! The piece is also extremely well made and the price point was fantastic. I highly recommend this item!" —Heather Fueger

    Stem Bear is a small business that specializes in high-quality wooden desk and phone accessories.

    Get it from Stem Bear on Etsy for $33.08 (available in dark and light wood).

    11. A set of stainless-steel S-shaped nonslip hangers because hanging your pants instead of shoving them in your dresser drawers will save so much space and cut down on bulk, which trust me, will be majorly satisfying. ~Plus~ it's a great way to keep your clothes wrinkle-free!

    Promising review: "A strong and durable hanger. These look like they will last for a while. I was looking for a way to save closet space and to make storing pants better, and this is it! Also useful for color organizing." —Taylor Richardson

    Get a pack of four from Amazon for $17.99+ (also available in a pack of six).

    12. And a set of Wonder Hangers to fully maximize hanging and storage space in your closet, so all your clothes might finally fit inside.

    Promising review: "These wonder hangers are WONDERful. My closet space has doubled, at least. I have ordered them for every closet in my home. I also recommended them to friends and family. I love them." —Nancy J

    Get a 10-pack from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in other multipack sizes and three colors).

    13. Plus a set of hook-shaped hangers ~specifically for hoodies~ so your sweatshirts no longer have to live in a messy pile, because how does one actually fold hoods?? This'll keep your fave hoodies on display and neatly organized. Basically, it's what every hoodie lover needs but doesn't know exists.

    Venalli / Etsy, Daniel Boan / BuzzFeed

    Former BuzzFeed Shopping editor Daniel Boan says: "This is one of those 'where has this been all my life?!' type of products. I'm a sucker for a soft hoodie, especially ever since my apartment became my office and now I can wear them 24/7. As much as I love curling up in them, hanging hoodies in the closet is SUCH a pain. They always slip right off my plastic hangers unless I zip them all the way up, so they usually just end up thrown over a random chair (or that mini elliptical I bought in March 2020 and have used a total of two times 😬). These little hook-shaped hangers are the storage miracle I never knew I needed. Now, I can just hang my sweatshirts and jackets by the hood and easily grab them when I need them — no zipping or folding necessary! Best of all, the pile of random hoodies on my chair has disappeared. I'm keeping the mini elliptical covered though."

    Venalli is a Kansas-based small biz specializing in vibrant hoodies and hooks for hoodies.

    Get a five-pack from Venalli on Etsy for $18.86+ (available in four colors).

    14. A freestanding stackable cabinet organizer that'll *drumroll* once and for all neatly organize the many (many) water bottles you've acquired over the past decade. Really, have you ever seen anything so beautiful?! As a millennial water bottle lover, I HAVE NOT.

    before image of water bottles in a cabinet
    After image of them stacked in the organizer

    This can also be used for wine bottles.

    Promising review: "I got this after being influenced by others on TikTok and am so glad that I did. These worked great to organize and store all my tumblers. It even fit my 30-ounce cups, although they don't sit all the way down into the opening it still stores them. I could use one more of these in this cabinet to store the rest of my koozies and cups. I love the color, and these are made from thick, sturdy material that won't warp or break over time. So happy with this purchase!" —Heather

    Get an eight-bottle holder from Amazon for $32.99 (available in six sizes and three colors). 

    15. A set of reviewer-beloved closet dividers to easily separate and section your shelves, so you can stack linens, clothes, toiletries, and anything you please into neat piles that won't topple over. 💪

    The closet dividers separating piles of folded clothes
    The closet dividers organizing a shelf of blankets and laundry soap

    The plastic-coated metal dividers are 12" tall and 3" wide (including bracket). They don't require any installation hardware, and slip easily onto standard shelving (wood, pressed board, or melamine shelving up .75 inches thick).

    Promising reviews: "These are AMAZING. I always was frustrated with trying to keep my cardigans, sweatshirts, and sweatpants from falling on top of each other on the closet shelf, and now I could not be happier. The separators actually triple the space I could use because they straighten items and eliminate unused space. Installed in a matter of minutes. HIGHLY RECOMMEND for those who need some organization in the closet, but are not sure where to start. Suitable for my wood shelves, just an FYI, that are a little less than one inch. We live in an apartment and I wanted something to just slide off and take at the end of the lease, with no damage to the closet." —Jay

    "I only wish I would have made this purchase years ago. Made a huge difference in organizing." —Teresa Avila

    Get a set of four from Amazon for $19.99+ (also available in sets of eight and 12).

    16. Or a cube storage organizer if you are *v* serious about utilizing every single inch of closet space available.

    You can arrange the six cubes in the style that works best for your closet setup, whether that's on your top shelf or underneath your hanging clothes.

    Promising review: "I use it in my closet for additional storage. I put heavier clothing items like bulky sweaters and jeans on the bottom and lighter items in the higher cubes. It’s quite sturdy for me and my storage needs. Super easy to set up. Highly recommend for people who live in apartments. Great value and easy to dismantle and store or transport if you’re moving." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in five colors and two pack sizes).

    17. And a shoe rack for anyone constantly greeted by (and inevitably tripping over) a whirlwind of their roomies' or kids' shoes anytime they enter or leave their apartment. It has two spacious shelves on the bottom to fit tall rain boots and Uggs, and smaller shelves for ankle boots, sneakers, and loafers.

    It also has hooks on the side for storing purses, backpacks, and scarves.

    Promising review: "Absolutely the best. I will say I wish there was about an inch more length on the shelves but that’s just me having too many shoes and big feet on the fiancé. If you need to clear up your space from shoes this is it. I put 6 or 7 pairs of flip flops on one shelf and 2 pairs of shoes/boots on the rest. Just a slight tight fit on the men's 12 shoes and boots but once you scoot them over they fit no issue. Love the added hooks on the side for hats, masks, keys, or whatever you need out of the way. This cleaned up the apartment so well. I love it." —hayden718

    Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors).

    18. And a coat rack, shoe rack, and storage shelf so you can get all your entryway needs taken care of in one swoop. Did I mention you can also use this as a bench?! 

    Promising review: "My husband and I wanted something affordable to help maximize our space in our apartment. This product did just that for us. Affordable, great quality, easy to assemble, looks great, and works well." —Jayde Wachlin

    Get it from Amazon for $55.99+ (available in two sizes and five colors).

    Check out more coat racks that double as decor!

    19. Hidden bookshelves if you have more books than you know what to do with and want a cool way to display your favorite reads other than stacking them on the floor or on your already-stuffed bookshelf. These amazing things give the illusion of floating!

    The small bookshelves are designed to hold up to 15 pounds and the large bookshelves are designed to hold up to 20 pounds.

    Promising review: "I bought two of these in August 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 I'm like, 'WOW WOW WOW, these are AMMMMAAAZZINNNNNGGGG!!!' If you love decorating with books, this is a must buy!" —Jlands

    Get it from Amazon for $14+ (available in two sizes and in sets of three).

    20. A collapsable acrylic makeup brush rack with 28 mixed-sized holes to neatly hold all of your many brushes. In addition to storage, it can also be used to dry your brushes after you've cleaned them. We love a multiuse product!!

    The makeup brush rack, with brushes upside down for drying
    The makeup brush rack, with brushes upright for use

    The rack comes with a protective brown paper sticker attached, so run it under hot or warm water to peel it off.

    Promising reviews: "This product is FABULOUS. It is exactly what I was looking for. It holds brushes very well, fits all the shapes of brushes I have, sets up quickly, and breaks down flat for storage. The acrylic pieces come with a protective brown paper on them, and the written instructions included with the product instruct you to peel it off (it’s fun, actually). The peeling takes 5 minutes, max. I did not use water for the peeling; you just have to get an edge started on the dry paper and if you go slowly, it comes off easily. The stickiness of the paper is along the lines of a very intense Post-It Note. It is not messy, nor does it stick to you. When you peel it off, you are left with pretty, shiny, unmarred acrylic. It is gorgeous. If I could give this brush drying rack more stars I would." –Rita

    "I wish I created this myself. I have for years played with brush drying techniques that don't allow water to drain back onto handle, after washing them. PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT. It folds up barely taking any space. Improved the drying time, keeps your brushes in shape, and elongates the life of makeup brushes. LOVE IT!" –B. Beaton

    Get it from Amazon for $11.99.

    21. An easy-to-install corner hanging bar for us renters ~~who have rented a room with no closet~~ and need an impromptu hanging rod, stat, or if you do have a closet but simply need some more room for your 'fits.

    Promising reviews: "I moved into a new house and I was lucky enough to get the bedroom with no closet. I was destined for doom. That is until I found this great product. I purchased two bars and placed one above the other. I couldn't be happier with the result. Each bar holds a significant amount of weight. I packed each bar full with heavy clothes and it continues to prove how sturdy it is. Thank you for such a great product!" –Sasha

    "These were the only corner closet rods I could find that didn't require some sort of extensive mounting system. My teenage son was able to install them perfectly. They fit nicely in both of my children's closets (they both have corner closets.) We have so many clothes on them there isn't a lot of room left, and they are holding up just fine a month later." —Amber

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99.

    22. A record/magazine holder that'll give you a designated place for your beloved vinyls and keepsake 'zines, so you can *declutter* while keeping your fave items on display.

    same organizer in gold holding books about plants

    You can also use it to organize your desk files!

    Promising review: "I didn’t want anything too bulky on my nightstand, but I like to have several books I like to read in bed. I previously had them stacked on top of each other and found this and was afraid it might be cheaply made, but it is sturdy and beautiful! I’m such a bookworm, and I am in love with this added piece to my room." —Stephy Lynn

    Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in three colors).

    23. A five-piece organizer set because we all need some help taming the wild beast that is our desk, and this way you'll actually be able to find a pen and notepad when you need it.

    The set laid out
    The set on a reviewer's desk holding office supplies

    The set includes a pencil cup holder, a letter sorter, a letter tray, a hanging file organizer, and a sticky note holder.

    Promising review: "I got tired of stacking papers and folders on top of a horizontal tray on my desk. The basket can hold file folders with tabs, which makes important papers easy to organize and find. No more piles upon piles. The tray is for my to-do items. I find myself leaving work on time and not staying late to clean up my desk. I have embellished some of the items with fake rhinestones and have received many compliments on the ensemble." —Kathy

    Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in three colors).

    24. Or a set of adjustable shelves if you prefer stacking your items to keep tidy. You can customize its assembly to your needs depending on what you want the organizer to look like. Plus, this thing is just so dang cute!

    Promising review: "The design is sleek and minimalist. I'm prone to clutter, so this shelf gives me a place to put things intentionally so that I don't get overwhelmed in my workspace. I also like that it only took about 10 minutes to fully assemble. If you've ever made your own IKEA furniture before, no need to fear; you'll do fine." —Mary Anne Layus

    Get them from Amazon for $25.99 (available in five colors).

    25. A portable nail polish organizer that'll hold all your polishes and then some, and is so beloved that one reviewer literally owns 10. The organization possibilities are endless (i.e. GLORIOUS), and since you'll be able to see all your polishes at a glance, it'll help prevent you from accidentally repurchasing a shade you already own.

    A reviewer's clear nail polish organizer open and filled with polishes
    A reviewer's hand holding their shut clear polish organizer, full of their polishes

    One reviewer also used it for storing their sewing threads! It fits 48 nail polishes and has eight adjustable dividers. Reviewers write that larger bottles fit more snugly.

    Promising reviews: "I had been in search for a nail polish organizer for A LONG TIME that met my needs, but wasn't super expensive or extremely large. I'm so glad I finally stumbled upon this one!!! I was curious how sturdy the case would be knowing how heavy my polish bottles were when stored together. I don't normally walk around holding it by the handle, but I would not be afraid to. The snaps and hinges feel very heavy duty and the plastic does not flex as it is thick plastic. There are also removable dividers on the outside spaces to make larger if needed. All of my bottles fit in the case; Essie, OPI, China Glaze, etc. The only bottles that don't fit perfectly in there are the Nicole by OPI, due to the slightly odd shaped bottle, but you just have to turn the bottle just right, but it does fit. I previously had my polish and accessories in a train case which was absolutely TERRIBLE. I couldn't see the colors and I had to take out EVERY color to get to the one I wanted. Problem solved with this case. All in all I love this case, I wish I had bought two!!!" –RB

    "This case keeps you not only organized with all your nail polishes in one neat area, but it also truly does remind you of a lot of colors you may have forgotten about so that you see and remember! I'm a cosmetologist and there is nothing worse than a bag really heavy with bottles hitting each other that the poor customer must scramble through and try to find a color. This is 10x easier and so much more organized!!" –Cally

    Get it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in three sizes).

    26. Some MVP under-bed storage containers for storing seasonal clothes, jackets, shoes, craft supplies, or toiletries — aka just about anything you want.

    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 $13.97+ (available in five colors and sets of two or four).

    27. Or a set of vacuum storage bags that you can use to compress bulky seasonal clothes and bedding if you have REALLY limited space in your apartment. 

    reviewer before photo of space bags full of bulky pillows and blankets

    Promising review: "I wasn't sure about this product and I didn't believe it would work, OH HOW WRONG I WAS !!!!!!!! I purchased the jumbo bags and I actually was able to place over 20 thick sweaters in one bag; three leather coats, five peacoats, and additional winter clothing into another bag. In total I had six jumbo bags in which I was able to store all my husband's and my winter clothing away, creating space and eliminating overwhelming clutter. I will definitely purchase smaller size, jumbo size, and all sizes to create more space and organize all my clothing." —VickyGener85

    Promising review: "These bags offer a perfect solution for my storage. I was able to put my seasonal items like summer clothes, comforters, jeans, pillows, etc. I also was able to put the stuffed animals my children were playing with when they were young but I did not have the heart to throw away for sentimental reasons. I like the part that I can see through what I placed inside. Once filled up, I was able to carry it to my shed because the bags were light." —Kassandra C. Salinas

    Get a pack of two from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in three colors and five quantities). 

    29. hanging dual-sided jewelry organizer that you can hang on the back of your closet to keep all your jewelry neat and conveniently accessible. 💅

    one side of reviewer's jewelry organizer with compartments full of bracelets, earrings, etc.
    other side of the organizer with more bracelets

    It comes with 32 clear vinyl pockets and 18 hook-and-loop closures. 

    Promising review: "I needed something that would save me space, but where I could still see all of my jewelry. These things are extremely durable. I bought two of them, and I have probably 50 or so necklaces on one side and maybe 30 pairs of earrings on the other side. There is not a single tear in it. In the other one, I keep nail polishes. It is very convenient because you can see all the colors and it does not take up that much space." —Nellie F.

    Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in three colors).

    30. ~Or~ an elegant bifolding jewelry stand if you are more of a minimalist when it comes to jewelry but still need some help keeping your accessories all in one spot and untangled (*raises hand*).

    Simple and Neat is a Seattle-based small business that specializes in home storage and organization.

    Get it from Simple and Neat on Etsy for $28.49 (available in rose gold or copper finishes).

    31. An excellently efficient adjustable closet rod with hooks to hang off of your existing rod so you'll get a whole second row of hanging space (!!).

    reviewer's closet using two of the rods for more hanging space
    reviewer photo of kid closet before adding the rod and after with double the hanging space

    Reviewers said it's especially helpful for kids' closets because their clothes are so small and don't take up much hanging space vertically. The horizontal bar can expand from 18 inches to the max 30 inches, and the hanging height can be adjusted by 1-inch increments.

    Promising review: "This product is amazing. My kiddos are going to share a closet and this was the easiest way to get all of their things in there together. It doubled the hanging space and I was able to hang my daughter's things and move my son's items to the bottom hanging addition. How low you want it to hang is adjustable so it could go even lower if you had adult-size clothing to hang. Would definitely purchase again." —Jeanette Fite

    It has 12 hooks and holds up to 50 lbs.

    Promising review: "This has been a lifesaver for me! My purses are no longer all over the floor in my closet. They all fit nicely on here. I love this so much. The packaging was nice and everything came in perfect condition. I have about 10 purses on it right now and it's really nice and strong. It fits on my door perfectly but you do have to push on the door a bit in order for it to fully close and open. However, that is not a problem for me at all. It's very easy for me to see all my purses now and my closet is no longer a mess. From other reviews I've seen, I know this can definitely hold a lot of weight and way more bags then I have on it. I love the way it looks!" —Jennifer

    35. And a hanging purse organizer to add some extra protection against dust and scratches while you're on your organizing kick. Handbags need TLC, too.

    Promising reviews: "I was quite skeptical when I ordered this purse organizer but decided for the price, I'd go ahead and take the chance. Well! This is a winner. There's no assembly. It hooks over the clothes rod, right alongside the clothes hangers. I held my breath as I began to push through a couple of my larger purses. The larger ones protrude a bit on each end but the sling fits like a glove around the purse and prevents sliding. The smaller purses fit quite nicely. I like that my more costly bags will not be a dust catch-all now and also are protected from scratching. All in all, I'm impressed with this product and happy with this purchase. It is a space saver. I recommend it. I hope it holds up well. I think it will." —Beje

    "Amazing!!!! Lifesaver for all my going out purses! I highly recommend!! Definitely something I will buy more of if I need more storage for my purses. I can see them all and pick which one I want to use. This is a must. Love it!!!" —Mary Mendoza

    Promising review: "Prior to making this purchase, my family would toss their shoes in an empty diaper box that immediately invaded the entryway space.

We just installed this last week and I felt compelled to write a review because it is THE BEST shoe storage solution I have ever come across.

    Promising review: "I wish I'd ordered two instead of just the one. It gives me more space in my somewhat small closet. Sturdy and the compartments are roomy enough for several items on each one. I have hats on one, sweaters on another, even have a couple of purses on the other space. The rod at the bottom has sweats and jeans hanging on it. Worth the price!" —CANON - KS.

    Promising review: "I bought this to add to the inside of a closet door for extra hanging options. My kids were coming in the house and dropping coats and hoodies all over or hanging them on the stair post (UGH) but this was a perfect addition to a narrow closet with shelving to give us some added hanging space. I liked it so much, I bought a second one and now all the hoodies and coats are out of sight!" —Kelly

    Promising review: "Great for getting things off furniture or floors. I am chronically cold and have a bunch of very nice knit cardigans. I usually end up leaving them laying over chair backs or recliners and cluttering things up, so I bought these to have a good place to hang them. The thick wood prevents stretching damage from the weight of the sweaters, and not using a hook prevents damage and holes in the knit. Definitely worth the upgrade." —Amazon Customer

    42. A truly ingenious litter box enclosure to artfully conceal your cat's litter box while also functioning as a regular ol' side table that's perfect for picture frames, plants, or whatever odds and ends you'd like.

    Promising reviews: "Very easy to assemble and looks and feels great. The extra storage on the top allows you to put your items on to make it much more discreet! It took me a couple of days to decide whether or not to buy it, but I wish I would’ve bought it sooner. Great addition to my room and overall aesthetic." —Edriane Alvaro

    "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

    Not only will this cut down on clutter, it'll make your space appear larger as a result.

    Promising review: "Bought this bed for my daughter who had storage issues. Originally she was going to get a different color but ended up with the gray velvet. I thought it was going to be cheap and crappy looking because of the price. Boy was I wrong! This bed is beautiful! High quality. very sturdy, and looks beautiful in the room. It was easy to put together the two of us did it in about two and a half hours. No issues just that everything has to be tightened with those little tiny Allen wrenches; thankfully we had an extra one so we could both work at the same time. Highly recommend. Still cannot believe the price!" —Susan Dalton

    Promising review: "The perfect hanger for storing even the most slippery garments. The flocking makes it extra grippy while the narrow design means you can fit a lot into a small space. I personally bought mine with a set of clips designed to convert them into pants/skirt hangers and love the versatility. Just be aware they can be a little brittle if you're rough with them and might not be strong enough to hold extra-heavy garments." —Emris Simmons

    It also folds down when not in use.

    Promising review: "This is a very nice, little, and attractive ottoman for the money. It was easy peasy to assemble. I needed something to prop my legs/feet on while sitting in my small living room. This will serve that purpose nicely. I noticed no atrocious odor. You are able to store magazines and lighter-weight items in it. I would NOT recommend sitting or standing on this because it is only made of a very heavy pressed paper board. If you need it to perform as something other than a footrest I would suggest you spend more money and purchase something actually constructed for more heavy-duty activity. I live alone and this will serve me well." —Barbara
