A revolving shoe rack makes a lot of sense if your closet has a small floor area but some extra height. These racks, which are designed much like a carousel, can hold anywhere from a few to a couple dozen pairs of shoes, depending on the model.
The ones that hold the most are necessarily going to be taller so clearance in the area will be critical.
Most revolving racks are made of metal and have numerous finishes available from chrome to powder coated steel in a satin nickel finish. They’re made to be strong and the good ones will have a substantially weighted based to prevent the unit from tipping over when loaded. Usually each tier will accommodate six pairs of shoes. Three and four tier versions are most popular, lending room for the storage of either eighteen or twenty-four pairs of shoes.
The tiers in these units are typically adjustable and can be made to fit just about any size and style of shoe, whether it be sneakers or four-inch stilettos. Most models are shipped to you unassembled but assembly can be accomplished in just a matter of a few minutes and often without the use of any tools. It’s that easy! Each of the tiers operates independently of the others and usually a handle will be built in for ease of transport. These ‘shoe trees’ make a very nice and stylish addition to any bedroom, closet, mudroom, entryway or foyer.
A revolving shoe storage tree is a unique solution for storing footwear and in reading some user comments on some of the sites selling this item I learned that most people who have done so are happy with their decision to make this purchase. This is a handy and convenient method for getting rid of the clutter that usually accompanies a large number of shoes residing without the benefit of organization.
I must say (and with no sexist bias intended), the women I know LOVE shoes. I live in the Philippines, the land of Imelda Marcos and, you now, she had, like, ten thousand pairs of shoes in her collection when ousted from the country. The other Filipinas I know like shoes just as much… they just don’t have the unlimited budget Imelda seemed to command.
I wonder if she has a revolving shoe rack. She probably has a hundred. They really ARE the easiest way to store and access your ever-growing collection of shoes.
