I LOVE IT! I've always loved organizing, but walking through a store like this really just does it for me. I spent some time there yesterday working with a closet specialist to design some closet shelving for Shelaghs room. With the baby coming, Rory will move into Shelaghs room, but we don't have room for any more dressers and hers is full. So, we have a guy coming in today to widen the closet doorway for us. I went to the Container Store to figure out the Elfa shelving inside the closet so I can fit both kids stuff mostly in the closet (and then hopefully get rid of or replace Shelaghs monstrous long, low dresser with something better suited for the space in her room...eventually). It was so easy to figure out and it looks beyond easy to install (remind me I said that later). I'm not going to put doors on it, but rather got some curtain panels and a curtain rod to put up instead that match her current window treatments. Poor Rory will be surrounded by pink!
Also, I ordered a new Dyson vacuum and I'm insane waiting for it to arrive. I purposely haven't cleaned so that I can do amazing things with my new vacuum. Dyson is a client of my company so I get 45% off which made this an affordable option. I'm so pumped. A friend at work got hers, vacuumed with her regular vacuum and then vacuumed with her Dyson and had to empty the container 4 times!!! You should see the dust bunnies floating around my house and accumulating in corners (on my stairs, under the radiators, cat hair everywhere!).

My closets are all Elfa and I LOVE them. I don't have doors on the kids closets either. It actually makes their rooms look bigger and the closets aren't messy since it is all organized.
And you'll love your Dyson. I've had one for a few years. I did the test when I first got it. Used my old one on a rug, then used the Dyson. It was disgusting how much junk was still in that rug!
