Love Expand A ShelfReorganized my pantry recently and bought one of these. Then returned and bought 2 more and then one more! :) I found them to be very helpful to arrange cans and other condiments on. Now I can see what items are in the corner and when I am running low on an item. Highly recommend!

perfect for spicesI purchased two of these shelfs to create one long shelf in my kitchen cabinet. They are expandable which creates the perfect fit. I love that they are inexpensive yet durable.

Not great for spicesThis product is fine, but I am probably going to return it. First, it's not space-saving - it would be better in most circumstances to use a separate add-a-shelf unit, because with this product, you're losing a big part of your shelf to empty plastic (underneath the risers). If you don't care about saving space and want it for the ability to view things in the back of a cabinet, then think carefully about where the labels are on the items you want to use. I wanted it for spices, and I'm not sure why people are raving about it for this use - the risers don't have a big enough differential between the steps so you can't actually see the labels. All I can see are a bunch of red and green lids. And mine is stacked so full that I'm sure to knock a bunch of stuff over every time I want an item from the back. If I do keep it, I'll have to get a sharpie and write the name of the spice on the edges of the lids so I can see what they are... but I think I'll probably keep looking for a better storage solution.

fantastic!!i bought the original expand-a-shelf to display my funko pop's to save space, and they fit perfectly! i love that it's able to expand so that as my collection grows, i'll be all set for a while longer! and the expandable part is also removable so you don't have to keep them side by side. depending on the depth/width of each funko pop, i can fit about 4 on each level comfortably. you could possibly squeeze 5 on one level. the first bottom level is a little shorter in depth than the top two levels. the display is plain white, so it looks clean. feels sturdy. works great for my purpose. plus i can't complain about the nice sale price.

Great - unless you have wire shelves!This expanding shelf unit makes it much easier to see/find all of my canned goods. And the fact that the shelf holds even my largest cans is a real plus. However, I have wire shelves in my pantry, and the unit kept falling through the spaces between the wires. So I had to put a piece of cardboard on the pantry shelf to keep the three-tiered shelf upright.

Great Room-saver, Spice StorageI really like the smaller size for spices, it allows me to see all the labels instead of only the tops. Plus, when you go to grab a spice jar you don't knock other ones over.
The larger size is great for cans and allows you to see labels in the back. It prevents things from getting lost in the back. Unfortunately, I recently moved into a very old building and the cabinets are 1/4" too small for the large size to fit :( I never had a size issue in more standard size cabinets in the past.

Economical & Works WellThis was a perfect solution to my canned food storage in my deep (but skinny) pantry. It is solid, and the width expansion helps make use of all available space. It's also by far the most economical solution I could find. Would buy again.

PerfectWasn't sure how much difference these would make, since the tiers aren't significant height, and neither are we. Wow, were we surprised. The spices stay on the shelves, and truly makes it much easier to see what you have, and snap up quickly. If your cabinets aren't very wide you may need to disassemble the shelves, as we did, but well worth the effort. PS - clear box on top shelf is the well priced container store shoe box, that can be bought by the case...

Stopped doubling buying...This shelving system made it possible for me to see ALL of my canned goods, which then solved the problem of me double buying products...not to mention, it only takes a quick scan to figure out what additional items I need for recipes!

Great Purchase!I purchased the Expand-A-Shelf. Few weeks ago, and it has been a great purchase! I expand it or shorten it according to the items I'm currently storing in my pantry. The shelf has allowed me to access my snack jars more easily without digging to the back to find what I'm looking for. The Expand-A-Shelf also allows my children, ages 2 and 5 to find what they're looking for without frustration.

Love this shelf! I can find everything now!I used the Expand A Shelf in my pantry, before I was digging to items behind items - not being able to see anything. With the Expand A Shelf everything is in view and with the slide out it fit in snug and made for a custom look.

Awesome!Absolutely love these! I reorganized our whole pantry and I have so much more room now and I can actually see what canned goods I have! For years, I would have to move all the cans just to find out that I didn't have something. Now I have them all where I can see them and organized by item on the shelf. So happy I bought these!

Love This!!!This is the best pantry organizer ever, and I only regret I didn't get this sooner! Everything is now visible and easily accessible and it has created tons of extra room in my otherwise cluttered and messy pantry shelf. It slides out to perfectly fit inside my pantry, so the cans don't fall of the sides, as they would with ones that don't expand. The steps are so deep they will hold a large jar of peanut butter. Everyone needs one of these!

Favorite Pantry OrganizerI first purchased my Expand-a-Shelves more than 15 years ago when I moved into my house. They still work wonderfully and have not yellowed, cracked, or broken. I've used them in many clients' houses and they all agree -- these shelves are the most helpful pantry organizer ever!

Great solution for lots of possible usesI am a collector of miniature liquor bottles. My challenge was... how to display my thousands of pieces on several shelves, so that the viewer can still see each bottle. I was considering commissioning staggered shelves to a carpenter, but that would have cost a fortune. Trying my luck, I went to The Container Store.... and TADAAA... I found exactly what I was looking for, at a fraction of the cost and looking great! Expand-a-shelf comes in 2 ideal sizes. Easy to install, easy to clean and very affordable. It fits almost all cabinet or shelf sizes. Great solution!
