If your room is about the size of a cupboard, it’s important to keep everything spic and span so you can still see your floor.

Promising review: "Purchased this for my daughter when she went away to college and she said that it’s been very helpful in carrying her laundry to/from the dorm laundry room. It seems durable and has held up for a few months so far. Also convenient because it can fold flat for storage, so it won’t take up too much space in a small dorm room." —Hawaii customer

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyer has to say about it: "I have this organizer and I love it! It holds a good amount of stuff, keeps the dust at bay, and looks much neater than my old organizer, which just had slots with no lid. Because I regularly try a ton of beauty products, I paired it with a set of stacking drawers from another seller, which aren't a perfect match for the shade of green, but look good together on my vanity!"

Promising review: "This organizer is hanging from my daughter's lofted dorm bed. It was easy to put together. She has all kinds of things in each pocket/section: first aid items, toiletries, bottles of over-the-counter medicines, etc. Everything is at her fingertips. I could see this being very useful in several places around the house...a baby's room, a kitchen, etc. The best thing is that when she needs to come home at the end of the year, we can disassemble it, fold it up, and easily get it home. I wish all of her stuff was that easy to transport." —Andrea Thomas

I've had a full-size fern in a terracotta pot on it, and it hasn't bellowed or buckled. It has many different slots, so I could keep all my sticky notes, notecards, paperclips, etc. within arm's reach. It was very easy to assemble and even came with a screwdriver to put it together. I highly recommend it, especially if you're a college student or work at a desk frequently." —Breanna Jones

Promising review: "I used these in my dorm so my charging cables would stay on my desk and the top of my cabinet. I really liked the shape and size of them since they didn't take up any space on my desk. They lasted the entire year and the back was still sticky when I removed them (which was really simple and easy to do). I had used one on a wall to put a cable up behind my bed which made it convenient to put off to the side." —M

The personalized touch was a hit, adding a sentimental value that made the gift extra special. The color scheme is tasteful and adds a touch of elegance to her dresser.

It feels sturdy and well-made, reassuring me that it'll last a long time. Honestly, I couldn't find any downsides to this tray. It's stylish, practical, and well-crafted — all at a reasonable price.
