Rating: - * I have purchased parts from all 3 systems and have done a lot of research into all of them. In my view, here are the relative best features of each system: RUBBERMAID -Ingenious design of shelving and rods allows easy customization of lengths without any permanent cutting. Elfa/Storables require cutting of rods and shelves. The closet kit is a nice starter set to try out various configurations at a reasonable cost. ELFA (Container Store) -Uniquely offering wood fascia to enhance the front of the wire shelves. -Nice slide out wire baskets available in different sizes and fine wire mesh. STORABLES -Fantastic 2-drawer wood units that have glide rails allowing full extension when opening. Compare to the Rubbermaid version which have smaller capacity, use cheap, noisy metal wheels, and only open 6 inches. Elfa does not offer wood drawers. -Nice 3-shelf wood units which are larger and better made than the Rubbermaid version. Elfa does not offer the 3-shelf unit. -The clothes rod has attractive metal end caps that stop your hangers. The rod mounts don't block your hangers allowing you to slide your clothes the full length of the rod. Compare to Elfa which blocks the hangers at each rod mount. Compare to Rubbermaid which allows full length sliding but has cheap plastic end caps. None of the 3 brands' rod mounts are compatible with other brands' shelf brackets. Elfa/Storables -Both have superior vertical tracks to Rubbermaid because they don't require any drilling into the wall and are available full-length. Rubbermaid uses extension tracks which require drilling into the wall which means you can't easily adjust spacing of tracks. If you want the absolute best closet and are set on the layout, I would recommend the Storables or Elfa track, Storables wood drawers and shelf unit, Storables shelving and rods, and Elfa wire baskets. If you are uncertain about the layout or want to be able to change it easily in the future, the Rubbermaid kit is a good option. You can improve the flexibility by replacing the Rubbermaid tracks with ones from Storables or Elfa. Rating: - * My husband installed this in one hour. All the parts were there, and it was super easy. I have so much more closet space than I used to. Highly recommend! Rating: - * My husband and I are tall and found that our old organizer did not allow enough space between the shirt and pant hanging rods. With this system, we were able to hang the track higher on the wall and select the position of the hanging rods. It is securely attached to the walls and we love the flexibility--so much that we purchased another track at a local home improvement store and used the leftovers to redo another closet that was too small for other organizers! Will likely replace ALL our closet organizers with this newer system. Rating: - * I moved into a loft with no closet space at all. I installed this closet kit on a 4 ft wall and it works wonderfully. My brother and I figued it out by looking at the pictures that came on the box. I would most definitely recommend this product to anyone who needs a make shift closet. Rating: - * I recently removed a wall between two closets to make a 4X5 walk in closet for the master bedroom. On the 5 foot side, I used one four foot header(with shelf across the top) with three vertical pieces and was able to extend the rod to cover the entire 5 foot length. I then added a 24inch shelf and was able to add a lower level rod (long dresses cover three feet) and shirts/pants hang on two rows 24inches each). On the back 4 foot wall of the closet, I used one four foot header (with shelf across the top) and the remaining two vertical peices with extenders. I then added the 5 smaller shelves for sweaters. I WAS SHOCKED I DIDN'T NEED TO MODIFY A THING. I thought I would be customizing for my needs using tin snips and a saw. However, the ingenious design allows A shelves to overlap B shelves. I WAS SHOCKED AT THE PRICE AND THAT THIS IS TWO 5 foot closets in a box. When I purchased it, I thought I would be using it to cover only one wall and then need to buy another... No wonder this is out of stock. |
