Is Amazon's No-Tool Solution For Cabinet Organization As Good As It Sounds?

If your lower cabinets are filled with shelving instead of sliding kitchen drawers, you know firsthand how much of a struggle it can be to keep things organized. Lowers are hard to keep tidy since you have to stoop down to grab what you need, but if you only have shelving, you also have the unique downside of not being able to see all the way to the back. This will force you to messily shuffle things around as you try to find that one thing you need, whether it's a rice cooker or a mixing bowl. This can get annoying pretty quickly, but installing custom drawers might not be in your budget for the time being. However, that doesn't mean you can't have the convenience of sliding drawers. Enter Amazon's Pull-Out Adhesive Drawer, which is a drawer that sticks to the bottom of your shelf with adhesive, requiring zero tools or cabinetry knowledge. But is it as good as it sounds?

If the reviews are any indication, then yes. These drawers have 4.3 stars out of over 700 reviews, 65% of which are five stars. Reviewers love its functionality, sharing that it holds a good amount of weight and that the adhesive doesn't come undone, making it a perfect staple for those who are uncomfortable with power tools. Intrigued? Here is a closer look at these DIY pull-out shelves. 

A closer look at the adhesive pull-out drawers

These adhesive pull-out drawers are great because they can be added to many places in your kitchen, whether it's your lower cabinets, pantry, or a tall cabinet you want to transform into an appliance garage. They're handy because they're a one-size-fits-all type of product since they're able to expand. Whether you have a wide cabinet or a skinny one, you can compress or expand these drawers to perfectly match your cavity. However, you want to choose the correct depth size as that part isn't expandable. You can choose between 17 inches deep and 21 inches deep.

They are also made out of metal rather than plastic, allowing you to put heavy items on them like pots, pans, and small appliances without the drawer bending or tipping over under the weight. To install it, simply pull off the cover from the adhesive attached to the gliders, place it on your shelf, and firmly press down on the drawer, ensuring it sticks. And that's it! And for $29.99 per drawer, you can't beat the price. "The installation is super easy and took less than [five] minutes. The adhesive strips have held well," one reviewer shared. However, another buyer noted that the adhesives are "no joke," so be aware that they might slightly ruin your cabinets if you ever want to remove them. It's something to keep in mind, especially if you're renting.
