Origami shelves
There were several presentations of the Origami shelves yesterday. Read a post from someone else that Callie said she had one in her dining room. I sure would love to see a picture of it in her house, especially in her dining room.
Or was this perhaps one of those statements made by a host to "entice" us the viewer to purchase the product. If the Origami ugly metal shelves are in her dining room then they would look good in any dining room I guess.
Don’t get me wrong, I like the shelves BUT not in my house.

I have a question about the origami 3 shelf unit. Have anyone ever used this for their microwave or toster oven stand?

I love these Origami shelves and actually use some of them in our spare bedroom. Let me give you an idea. My husband installed a curtain track system. (I found my curain track system about five years ago on the internet at a store that is a very common store (starts with "W"). I can actually close the curtains to hide the shelves. It is pretty much like having an extra closet in the room except there is no closet door, it is a curtain which goes with the decor of the room. I prefer the Origami over the fake wood and the yucky plastic. I also like the fact that the Origami shelves are easily broken down and NOT heavy like a piece of wood furniture would be. If we decide to move, it will be much less hassle and we can easily do it ourselves. Origami is beautiful to me …. love the function, the convenience, and the durability plus the shelves come in various colors!

The last time I posted on this thread, I had 3 of the Origami shelving units. I now have 5 of them. I purchased another large unit, and put that in the garage, so now, I have 2 large shelving units in my garage.
I recently bought the Everthing Cart and use that for my printer in my office. I’m tempted to buy the computer desk. Does anyone have the computer desk? If so, how do you like it?

My white rack came in just fine. I am 70 and I opened the box (heavy though I did get it inside), slid out the rack, put the wheels on okay with tool included then stood it up to fold top over…ceilings not tall enough so had to tilt it but laid it down and did it and I do love it and it is packed!
Best thing of all is I can move it if I change my mind on where to put it or what to use it for. Love it!
I also have kitchen cart. BE AWARE IF YOU ORDER ACCESSORIES SUCH AS THE DRAWER AND A BASKET TO HANG OFF THE SIDE…they have their hangers in the SAME PLACE SO YOU CANNOT USE BOTH.
Note to Origami…move the hangers for the baskets to the middle and make them larger for stability so we can use both the drawer and the basket.
I had to send my basket back as the drawer is more practical of the two but would have loved to have had both of them to use.

I feel lucky that my black one arrived in pristine condition. Mine is in my kitchen breakfast room. All of my mixers, bread maker, margarita maker and the like are on it. I put some pictures, plants, cookie jars and other knick knacks on it to break up the boringness and I think it looks great. The light fixture in the breakfast area is wrought iron and frosted glass with a wheat motiff. Never will it see my dining room.

I received the shelves in red in good shape. I was very worried after reviewing the 1 & 2 star reviews, that I would be receiving a defective one so I tried to keep an eye on Ups but they were so quiet, it had been sitting on my porch for 30 min. Anyway, I moved it into the living room. Layed it down on the side, opened the box and slid it out. Then I put the wheels on. I am 5’1 at 64 years old and must admit, it was very easy. The Only issue I had, was at the very top shelf where the side latch is. The middle edge wouldn’t lay completely flat even though corners did so I couldn’t press the latch to close it but the shelf still works.. Btw, I have average ceiling heights, so I had to close the top with the rack tilted. All in all, I am very happy and I guess lucky considering some of the other comments people wrote in about. I still have a problem how these racks look nice in dining or living rooms. After all, a metal rack is still a metal rack.

I have one origami shelf unit- I bought the bookcase when it was a ts last year. I have a not so deep area next to my kitchen that Iw as going to have custom shevles made for- the bookcase fits really well. I bought bronze to blend with my wood cabinets- it’s a great piece and arrived in a+++ condition! I could use better shelving in my 32" wide pantry, but the current units offered are either too wide or not wide enough. I’m waiting for the day they make a unit between 24" wide and 36" wide!!

Hey Carlos,
Just saw your comment on the Arc Trainers…hubby is head of maintenance and we are old school here, do you mean arc welders?, if so, GOOD one. He still shakes his head about many items we get that he needs to repair.:smileyfrustrated:

Won’t buy again unless someone checks outgoing items. Picture included.
-
I own several Origami shelves….they are THE BEST EVER!! 🙂
Every time they go one sale and I have a coupon or some spendable KASH, I get more!!
-
these look great. Can’t wait to use them…I just hope they deliver the racks in good condition.
-
I have two of the white ones in my pantry but wouldn’t put them in a dining room.
-
I have them for the kitchen and this price is real nice thank you hsn Kane
-
Did she perhaps mean the one like a backers rack? If you got the in the black, I can see…depending on decor; that it would work in a dining room.
