Promising review: "Randomly write reviews, but you need this! EXACTLY what we were looking for. Oak color blends right into interior of cabinets and white supports match our dishes. Going to, for sure, buy more for every cabinet in the house. Instantly gained twice the storage. No longer have to pick up a stack of dishes to grab a tray, etc. Bargain as well. Looks way better and supports so much more than old wire shelves... Solid wood/metal. Easy to install each shelf with nothing but the four screws included and a Phillips head screwdriver.

It's been almost two months and I have not had one problem with it! And, this is the longest my makeup has stayed organized. I highly recommend. I purchased two! One with four small drawers and three large drawers. and one with two small drawers and four large drawers. Both have the same organizer on top. The color is awesome!

Promising review: "These invisible bookshelves are great, they worked perfectly for us. They are very sturdy and hold a lot of books, I did not overload my shelves for visual reasons, but they could have held more books.

I just stuck them to the refrigerator before we went on our trip. The first thing I did once we arrived was go into the RV and check on them. They didn't move, not even a smidge! Well worth the money!" —Angaleann Higgins
Get the set of 12 from Amazon for $18.99.

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.

Promising review: "This desk is a space-saving wonder. We purchased this desk to create a temporary workspace. Needed a desk that can quickly and easily fold up and be put into a closet — this desk delivered that and more! It's very sturdy, and takes two seconds to assemble out of the box. Then just as easy to fold up and put away. The top's wooden finish adds a modern and nice look to your space. Excellent quality for the price!!" —JAH

They placed them in my original order so everything came together. If you’re looking for a window shelf, this is it!!" —Jamie Miner
Get it from Indoor Window Gardens on Etsy for $74+ (available in three styles and five mounting options).
13. A pack of under-bed storage containers if you have a TON of extra clothing that's been sitting in piles all over your apartment (guilty). The top of the storage container is clear so you can easily see what's packed inside.
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

Promising review: "I live in an apartment with one of those pre-fab showers. This is a perfect shower curtain which lets me have all my products and different soaps, scrubs, razors, foot buffers, etc. This shower curtain is great because it helps keep the actual shower corners clean and neat. I keep my products on the inside where I can get what I need when I am in the shower. If it goes bad in a year I will easily buy another. To me, the pure convenience of it and space saving capabilities are perfect. If you have a tiny apartment bathroom like I do, this will make your shower or bath more luxurious feeling and happier." —93

Promising review: "This is amazing and I have no idea I didn’t buy one of these years ago!!! My new stove wouldn’t get close enough to the wall to allow me to rest anything on top without it falling behind. This was absolutely PERFECT. I am very happy that the magnets provided were able to be moved. This allowed me to place them perfectly for maximum hold because my top was slightly curved." —JStill
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in three sizes and six colors).
17. A handy shoe-storage cabinet so you won't have to trip over multiple pairs of shoes when you're racing out the door in the morning. 😅 It also eliminates the need for an entryway table because you can place your keys, mail, and decor right on top.
Reviewers also use this as a media console to store games and electronics.

"We are a family a four and this fits almost all of the shoes...This is so pretty by the front entrance you don't see shoes everywhere and the top part is great to put keys, a nice decoration piece. We use it to keep a basket of hand sanitizer, shoe covers, and doggy poop bags, also great for mail since it is by the door." —Irina
Get it from Amazon for $156.75+. Also available in a smaller, two-door version for $100.79.
18. A cute storage ottoman to give yourself some extra storage space and a convenient footrest. Plus, it can fold down when not in use (we have a feeling you'll be using this piece constantly, though!).
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
Get it from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in four colors and two materials).
19. Or a luxe flip-top storage bench if you need double the storage space of an ottoman. The versatile design looks right at home in a bedroom, living room, or entryway.
Promising reviews: "It holds up! Used daily as a launch pad, bed, road, workbench, climbing structure, and lava safe spot. Oh and a footrest and blanket storage. Holds four blankets and two to three people can rest their feet on it at once. I’m just glad the legs are sturdy enough to hold up my my kids’ antics." —Anna
"This bench has a good fabric, with a good balance, and enough storage. I am using for the end of the bed. It would be nice to use at the entryway or living room as well." —Dalila
Get it from Wayfair for $320.
20. A set of nesting food storage containers with matching lids so you won't have to waste time looking for the right lid ~ever~ again. The five different sizes fit together to save a TON of space.
These handy dandy containers are also microwave and freezer safe!
Promising review: "We absolutely love this set of food storage containers! The fact that all the pieces stack together and all the lids snap together is genius — really great for small kitchens like mine. I also love how the container and lid are color-coordinated. It makes finding the right lid for the right size container a breeze. They're also just a cheerful color scheme that's fun to look at. A++ buy!" —Abbey Thompson
Get the set of five containers and lids from Amazon for $27.53 (also available in smaller and larger sets).
21. A cabinet door organizer that hooks onto the back of your cabinet (no drilling required!!) and can store everything from cutting boards, bakeware, and plastic food wrap to cleaning supplies.
It measures 13.5-inches x 9.5-inches x 3.62-inches and the hooks have foam padding on the back so they won't scratch your doors.
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 $16.87+.
22. Or an entire pantry door organizer with five adjustable shelf baskets for storing items of all sizes. It can be hung (there are two over-the-door hooks) or mounted! Your pantry is about to feel a LOT bigger.
Some reviewers even use it to organize their bathroom products! Genius!
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 $31.99+.
23. A pack of space-saving multi-use hangers that can organize pants, scarves, skirts, and more! The hook at the top has a 360 swivel design so you can easily move this around to see everything hanging up.
Promising review: "This really exceeded my expectations. The wood has a high quality feel to it. You do need assemble it but it’s not too hard. It works fine either way for me. Not sure why some people had problems with the clothing slipping off. I really like and might buy more if needed in the future. If you put this horizontally, it does take up quite some space but it looks really nice. If you put it vertically, it looks not as nice but if you need to save space, it really works. Overall, really impressed with the quality." —Layla
Get a 2-pack from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in three colors).
24. An over-the-door plastic bag organizer to keep your collection of bags in check while also making it wayyyy easier to grab one in a hurry. Psst — this can be placed on the inside or outside of your cabinet!
