To find out how to best help people with issues like this, Paul and his colleagues visited different homes on three continents. They took pictures and bombarded the homeowners with storage-related questions. “We got to see the hard truth, and it wasn’t always pretty,” smiles Paul. “Many have closets with just a shelf and a rail underneath. It’s simple, but not very functional. They stuff the shelf and hang as much as they can on the rail – the rest ends up on the floor.”

Donatello shelvingClayReasonably solid construction. Simple to assemble.
Great little shelf unitJean-FrancoisAttractive, small and sturdy shelf. Bought to go in a fairly narrow corner. It's a clean solution.
Keeping shoes tidy ThereseI am very happy with the Jonaxel shelving unit. Fits perfectly in my wardrobe as a shoe storage unit.
Good item Anonymous reviewerI got this for under our sink cabinet. Unfortunately due to our sink I couldn't fit it in its usual configuration so I left off the top shelf but it worked fine and given much better use of sink area
Great addition to any office spaceBrendaNice looking unit. Easy to assemble. I purchased 2 units and placed one on top of the other. They are perfect for displaying items but also for my hard drive and printer. I added castors, so they are able to be moved around the room when needed.
Poor designDilipI don't know who decided it was a better idea to hammer in the top and bottom pieces instead of affixing them with bolts. Incredibly bad design compared many other Ikea shelves. I do not recommend this product.
Paint could be improved Ting YanPaint at the contact point easily crack and fall off when installing.

Do not like this productChrisPlastic shavings generated when the joining plastic pieces need to be forced into place. Disassembly would be impractical if not impossible. I do not like (my) nor recommend the Jonaxel Shelving unit.

Story
Put your closet monster on a diet
Do you know what’s hidden in your closets? Probably some might-fit-me-later-clothes, sports equipment, shoes, umbrellas and stuff that don’t belong there. But in every closet there’s also valuable space. JONAXEL storage system makes it easier to use it in smarter ways – from the forgotten corners to the void up to the ceiling.
When we want to tidy up at home, it might make sense to throw things into a dark, confined space and then forget about them. But there’s a downside to it. It can transform your closet into a monster. “In the long run it becomes hard to keep track of your belongings, things disappear and you get a clutter that can feel stressful,” says Paul Hughes who’s been involved in developing JONAXEL.
Home visits revealed the truth
Save time and space
It’s quite common that other parts of life get in the way for a clutter-free everyday, either we don’t have the energy, time or interest to fix it. “That’s why we had to come up with a simple solution that’s easy to put together,” says Paul. The smallest JONAXEL unit fits almost anywhere, and you can create more storage by simply stacking units on top of each other. “It’s a system that lets you take control of the spaces you have. Help on the way to a more organised life and a strategy for keeping closet monsters from growing too big.”
Material
What is steel?
Steel has unique characteristics when it is stretched and shaped since it remains strong. It provides strength to everything from skyscrapers and cars to bed frames and outdoor furniture. The steel industry is moving in the direction of more energy-efficient production and stronger steel qualities. It doesn’t lose any of its properties when recycled and today steel is one of the most recycled materials in the world.
