The Multi-Stor organizer is a way to make the most use out of some tight spaces, by offering two layers that basically doubles the room you have to work with. This can mean you can store twice as much stuff, or it could mean that you have twice as much space to store the same amount of stuff, depending on how you want to use it. But how well does it work when put into a real world situation? Let’s find out.
Overview
Organizational products always seem to find a place in our hearts. It’s a common human need to have a place for everything and put everything in its place. But sometimes our best wishes for organization can get tossed to the wayside with our busy and hectic lives, and the accumulation of so much stuff. There will always be a market for products that help us make heads and tails out of the things we own, and bring back order and tidiness where it used to not exist.
The Claim
The makers of Multi-Stor say that this fits all sizes of drawers, and that its compartments were designed to accommodate all of the most common things we store in drawers. They point out that there’s no need to install this, it simply inserts into your drawer and immediately starts providing its organizational benefits. They say that each room in the house could benefit from having one of these in it, since it’s versatile and not specifically created for any one purpose.
The Hype
Any time a product tries to solve a pretty universal problem, there’s some hype to it. Nearly all of us can relate to having drawers in the kitchen or other rooms that are not very organized at all. Many people refer to it as the “junk drawer” because it’s just a cluttered mess of odds and ends that looks like a pile of junk stuffed in a drawer. When they say they can solve this problem and make order from chaos, it’s going to draw a lot of interested people to it.
The Cost
You get a set of two Multi-Stor units for a total price of $40 shipped to your door. They make it a point to say that this is not limited to just being used in the kitchen, and can go where you need it to. Some might use it as a jewelry box in their dresser, others to organize tools in the garage. That’s why it’s not such a big deal that they won’t let you order just one, because most people can come up with a good way to use the second one.
The Commitment
There’s the one-time commitment of putting this into the drawer and loading it up with the items that were once filling the drawer. After that this should definitely be a time and space saver for you, since you won’t be fishing around for what you need, and since it is supposed to keep items clean with it’s special lid. Overall this is the sort of set and forget product that you put into place once and then benefit from again and again, which is usually a winner.
Evaluation
The Multi-Stor has a lot of functionality designed into it, and perhaps the most useful part of it is the lid that it comes with. This keeps dust and debris off of things like your cutlery, but is also handy when you are storing things in it that you want to keep in good condition. So while it does serve as an organizational tool, it also doubles as a storage device, keeping things nice until you are ready to use them.
With its clam shell design you also get roughly double the amount of storage space. That’s great for those that have to do a lot within a little amount of space. This makes it a good choice for a make-up container, or for an arts and crafts storage tray. They say that it’s really limited only to your imagination, and we can see that they’re right. There are a ton of different uses for this, and if you’ve got some uses in mind for it, it should accommodate whatever you have in mind.
Final Multi-Stor Review
The Multi-Stor is getting our seal of approval. It’s a good idea, and they’ve followed through on that idea with the right design, and a quality product. If you’ve got a disorganized mess or two in your home this should put it all back to the way it should be in short order. They’ve got a 30 day money back guarantee on it, but this will only get you half of your money back. The chances are high that you’ll end up keeping it, as it should fit nicely in any drawer, and double your storage space on the spot.
Our Recommendation
This is a great addition to most modern homes today, and depending on what you need it for you should be pretty pleased with the results. It’s not really rocket science, but you can tell that they tried their best to make a really useful product that fills a need for many people. They’ve also done a good job of manufacturing it, with no complaints registered about it being too flimsy or made out of cheap plastic. This is one of those products that you can order with confidence because they got it right.
Because of the way the bottles and other items have to be fit in, I don’t think this will save space, but what it will do is organize your things so you can find them easy and always have them available. Because after all, what’s the point of having something that you can’t find? I could see a lot of use for myself, but my husband is the one who’ll benefit the most if he uses them in his garage, which is more like garbage than a garage.
