could be great, but not quite

I got this organizer to make the most of the tiny space we have in our home. It really is a nice design, and it has a lot of potential. However, the difficulty in setting it up in our particular space, combined with how easily the shelves sag, made us finally decide to return the product.

When I was contemplating buying it, I saw that the box said it would be easy to hang on dressers or cribs. In our room, hanging this on the crib wouldn't work, since the crib is several steps away from the dresser we use as a changing table. From the pictures on the box, I couldn't tell how it stayed on the dresser, but I assumed it would be a simple strap/hook arrangement. When I got home, I was disappointed to find out that Munchkin's solution for hanging this on a dresser, apparently (I say apparently because it did not come with instructions), was to adhere velcro to the dresser. We did not want to leave a permanent glue residue on our dresser, so I actually concocted a way to get the organizer to stay on the side of the dresser using some string and two hooks I had lying around.

Needless to say, my elaborate work-around did not last longer than a week. In addition, the shelves started sagging, even though we only put a few normal baby items in them (a box of wet wipes, a bottle of lotion, a bottle of baby powder, and a few small odds and ends).

Rather than go to more lengths to get the organizer to work in our space, we just decided to return it and buy a sturdy wooden shelf instead.

I would only recommend it to someone who has the right space to make it work easily, such as a changing table with a bar from which the straps could hang around, or a beater dresser they don't mind destroying.
