Excellent ProductI don't know how many times I went into the Container Store looking for something to put in my son's closet for storage, and overlooked this piece! It is not only esthetically pleasing, it's functional and easy to put together. I love that you are able to buy separate pieces to add on. Highly recommend!

I love these drawers.I stumbled across these drawers on Pinterest and thought they looked so good. I took a chance and ordered 2 for my closet because I've been relying on plastic drawers for a good majority of my life. Those always break and get warped and I end up having to replace it. These drawers came in quickly and I assembled them really easily (by myself!!) They look great in my closet and fit so much clothes. They open and close with a whole lot of ease and I ended up ordering one more to fit in my closet!!

Great system for organizing fabric!Organization helps to simply my busy life! I own a Quilt store in Rockford, IL and use Elfa drawer units to organize my fabric into themes, by color or texture ( such as flannels). Quilting is my life and Elfa Mesh drawers make it easy to see the fabric I have and easy to grab and start a quilt!

Good College or Home UseThis was purchased for a college dorm room use, had been eyeing for some time and plan to buy another for home use. The assembly is a little work, and the instructions included are very weak! Need to be better and I am a visual person. But once we figured out how to assemble it is was good to go! I am still not sure what the small clear pieces are for. But I do like the sleek design and the use and was glad it was on sale. I plan to get the top and the dividers. Much better than the plastic drawers we have used previously.

Love itSo I needed some extra storage in my bedroom closet and remember I had purchased this same product last year for my sons bedroom. I love this Elfa start and stack it has so much room in the deep drawers. I used it for seasonal sweaters and sweatshirts in two of the deep drawers. Then in bottom drawers I used it to store away my backpack and crossbody I use on vacations. The top drawer is very shallow so I used that for a few magazines and books I’m reading before bed. I love it. Easy to assemble and very sturdy. I also got the wood drift top to complete the look of a dresser look. I would definitely recommend this product to others. I may even buy a 3rd one soon.

Very impressedI got this fory bedroom closet. I have a small walkin and a dresser in the main part of the bedroom for some of my clothes. I hated have to walk back and forth in the morning and wanted to consolidate most of my every day stuff into 1 spot. This was perfect! I had been debating between the medium and the smaller narrow one but ultimately got the medium one. O was able to condense 4 fabric bins and half a drawer and still have some room if I decide to add other items. It's super sturdy and the drawers are deep. I was able to roll up pants and do 2 rows deep without them spilling over the side. I also purchased so clothing organizers and they fit inside nicely. It's a little pricey at $125ish (that was the main reason I had put off purchasing it). I purchased it when it on sale for $99 with a pop account. Still a little much in my opinion but its food quality so it was worth it

Wish I'd discovered these soonerI bought two to start and now that I have them in use, I will be purchasing more at some point. They are well made, sturdy and hold a lot of clothes. I have them in my walk in closet and they have helped immensely with getting things organized. I have one stacked atop the other which saves space and works really well.

Just right DrawersNot to expensive and not as cheap as some plastic drawers that these are replacing in my garage. Perfect size to fit on my heavy duty shelving for storing a load of things I don't need but have to have. Easy to assemble but I would like to have an option to have the "feet" be flush for the bottom. Instead, they come with feet that will stack on top of another unit which is great if that is what you want. I don't want that so I had to saw cut the pegs so that the entire unit will stand flush with the ground.

Excellent storage solutionI purchased this for my 10 year old son's closet. I had a plastic bin before that kept breaking and he couldn't pull the drawers out. This is a sturdy, clean, functional storage solution to a closet that my two sons share. It makes it easy for my son to get to his socks, underwear, belts, etc and it looks nice too. Definitely a great piece and even better that it was $30 off when I purchased it!

My closet turned from tiny mess to a nice and modern looking organized piece in my room!!!

Freed up a ton of hanging space in my closet!I bought two of these start a stack kits and two melamine tops for my walk in closet and I’m glad I did! I was able to free up an entire bar on the other side of the closet where my pants used to hang. They fit all of my jeans, dress pants, leggings, yoga pants, shorts, you name it! They were so much easier to assemble than I thought they would be, I did them myself and it only took me a half hour. I also bought the clips to clip them together. I want to buy more but then I’d block my baseboard heat in the closet so I’m debating. The only bummer is I bought a bunch of the elfa drawer dividers in the store and I wish someone had told me they don’t work in the frame. I wish the cashier or the person who got them from the back for me told me this. Now I have to return them and the store is an hour and a half away.

Great drawers that hold a lotI got a custom Elfa drawer combo rather than the standard drawers shown here, but it only differs from this one slightly. I LOVE it! I could customize it to the space I have and it really holds a lot; in fact I have even more storage space in it now than I actually need. Really tidied up my office space.

Hold so much...love it!These drawers slide in and out so smoothly! I wear size small and I could make 2 rows of shirts in the deep drawer. I wanted a top for a flat surface to fold my clothes on but still be able to see through so I got the smoke solid drawer lid and they work...not a perfect fit but good enough.

Love itI purchased this unit for my small business that shares a space in my walk in closet. I'm definitely ordering at least 3 more to use for business and 1-2 for my daughters bedroom. I ordered white....very clean look.
I purchased a rubber mallet but it wasn't working........so I used an old rag (it will put a hole in whatever you use) and a hammer. I finished my setup process a lot faster an when I used the mallet. I would recommend to a friend. Try to purchase during the aunnal elfa sale but if not it's still worth it!

Very usefulI have two of these and this is my third. I love them for organizing!
Are the bins and the entire unit strong enough if all 4 bins are filled with heavy books? Don't want to have it loaded then fall apart to hurt kids.
Asked by: Inquirer0123
This is not a even a medium-duty drawer system. We’re storing only clothing in our and the drawers have pancaked down several times. I wouldn’t recommend it for anything heavier than socks, underwear and a few t-shirts.

How much can you build off of this drawer system?
I'd like to purchase the Start-A-Stack drawer combination for some crafting storage; however, I'm curious as to how much you can build off of this drawer system in the future. It is possible to add an additional drawer frame to make the system taller if I need more space? Thanks!
Asked by: Crafter
Yes, you should be able to do this because you can purchase a solid top for the drawers. Then you can just stack the next set on top.

Does this come with the frame or is it only the drawers?
Asked by: Jaynabeth
It comes with both! It is all on one box. You just put the stop pins in and assemble the frame with a rubber mallet...it is really easy

Drawers
I am concerned drawers are wire and will snag clothing. Has anyone had trouble with this?
Asked by: galty75
It's pretty smooth--more like mesh than wire since nothing sticks out. I doubt clothes will get snagged.

How. Many adult tee shirts will a 2 runner drawer hold?
Asked by: Alice0131
Depends on if you have men or women's shirts. I fit easily 20 T-Shirts if I split the drawer in half (10 T-Shirts on each side). Since Pullover's are thicker I would say about 10-12 Pullover's.

Can you stack multiple units on top of one another securely?
Asked by: Andrewbag
Yes, two Elfa Drawer Frames can be combined to conserve on space and make the most of vertical storage options.
Details are available in the Elfa Drawer Unit Assembly Instructions, a PDF document, on this product page just to the right of the copy block, under the dimensions.
Don't we all have something we're holding onto in our closet that we really just need to say goodbye to? Maybe it's those favorite jeans from college or that dress that you love and just know is going to come back in style. For Laurie, it was a pair of painter's pants that she had from her teenage years in the late 70s - something she hadn't worn in years but that evoked fond memories of her youth.
