I consider myself a pretty tidy person, but when it comes to my wardrobe it all falls apart. I've been scouring the internet for AGES to find the perfect storage solution, so that my floordrobe would finally be a thing of the past.

I've spent hours creating Pinterest boards and browsing iconic furniture websites, but I'd never found the perfect product to make me hit that shop button. That was until I stumbled across this AmazonBasics 6 Cube Wire Storage Shelves, of course!

I was looking for shelving that was big enough to store heavy jumpers on, while not being an eyesore. The industrial wire cubes not only coordinate with my bedroom furniture, but they continue the minimal vibe I'm going for.

Want to see how easy it was to put up and start using the storage? Head over to Instagram and watch me in action.

Pros: You've seen these cube shelves in action now, so you know exactly what the pros are - they're aesthetically everything you could want in your home, they're a fantastic size, and they don't cost the earth. I'd call that a triple threat to be honest.

Cons: I'm not the savviest when it comes to building any type of furniture, so I opted for the easiest storage solution that I could find. On paper it was perfect. In reality, I found putting it up frustrating as I accidentally knocked one of the panels out of the connectors, then pretty much had to start again. But once it was up, it was GOLDEN.

AmazonBasics 6 Cube Wire Storage Shelves verdict:

Overall, I'm obsessed with this shelving from AmazonBasic. I love that you can customise it to your needs. Want one cube in your bathroom, another in your living room? Go for it.

Although I found putting it together frustrating, once I'd finally got it up it was super sturdy and provided lots of space. I even managed to fit in all my summer and winter clothes on the shelves, meaning that I can use the plastic boxes that were in the wardrobe elsewhere.

If you're looking for storage that is roomy and feels the part, this is the one for sure. It's cool, industrial design will fit right at home in any modern flat or house.

One last thing... Bring out more sizes Amazon, please and thankyou. Imagine how cute these would look in your kitchen cupboards? Right now they're just too big to fit for that.
