This Stylish Foldable Shelf Is on Major Sale at Pottery Barn (You’ll Want One in Every Room!)

I’ve tested my fair share of home organizers, and I’m sure it won’t surprise you when I say that a lot of them are eyesores. Sure, they help declutter, which ultimately contributes to a clean-looking environment. But I’m not exactly a fan of having plastic bins visible in my bedroom, or owning a set of utility shelves that look like they belong in a garage.

For stylish storage solutions, I usually turn to Pottery Barn. There, you can find a basket, bin, or shelf for just about every room and purpose. None of them feel as versatile, though, as this folding shelf, which is on sale in two classic colors. I think once you see how effective it is at corralling so many different items, you might want one for every room. The shelf won’t stay in stock forever — especially at such a low price — so be sure to grab as many as you need while the discount is still live!

Pottery Barn’s folding shelf is noticeably smaller than your average bookshelf. Although it can certainly stand freely on the floor (which might come in handy for storing dry pantry goods), the shelf’s 37-inch height also means you can stack it on top of elevated surfaces, like a desk or vanity. At 28 inches wide and 11 inches deep, it won’t occupy too much surface space if you do decide to place it on a table. You’ll just want to make sure said table can support the shelf’s nearly 20-pound weight or use the included anti-tip hardware to ensure it remains stationary.

As for its material, the shelf is made from solid wood and MDF and has a weight capacity of 50 pounds. It comes in black and white, so you’ll have no problem styling it with the rest of your furniture. Best of all, the shelf folds flat when not in use, which is great if you’re someone who moves frequently or you just enjoy switching up your desk setup.

Usually, shelves like this one are made of metal and look very utilitarian. Although metal lends sturdiness, it can clash with other materials — especially if you prefer the look of natural materials like wood. This folding shelf avoids looking austere precisely because of its wood construction, but its clean lines still allow it to serve as a neutral backdrop for your favorite decorative objects or most-reached-for office supplies.

Additionally, the fact that the shelf is collapsible means you can have fun with where you situate it and switch up your display as often as you want. If you know someone going off to college in the fall, this feature also makes the shelf a great addition for a dorm room. Because the shelf is so incredibly easy to move, anyone who rents or otherwise moves frequently will find it a convenient storage solution to always have on hand.

Although Pottery Barn’s products tend to be pricy, the folding shelf is a steal for either $69 in black or $79 in white. There’s nowhere you can’t put it to use, so grab yours now and delight in the look and feel of a clutter-free work space.
