Internet retailer Ergo in Demand offers a great storage system for the education market. The Spin n Store square carousel has a capacity that beats a standard 27” bookcase by almost 100%. With four sides to accommodate books, binders, or supplies, the carousel increases your storage exponentially. Of course, it turns, which makes finding what you need a convenient pleasure–especially if you opt for the casters, which add mobility to the two- and three-tier units.

Durable Square Carousel Multiplies School Storage

Available in graphite or maple, the Spin n Store square carousel comes in units ranging from two to six tiers. Its aluminum reinforced edges make the versatile piece durable—a great incentive for schools and libraries. With a weight capacity of 132 pounds per tier, the Spin n Store won’t topple over due to heavy reference books or weighty binders. If you want to maintain the sleek look of the Spin n Store, choose to add a square, powder-coated cover to conceal the four-pronged base. If you want to add color and function, you can also add snap-on magnetic panels, available in six colors: red, green, blue, black, orange, and pink.

While the Spin n Store isn’t meant for residential purposes, I think it would make a great addition to open-plan apartments. If you really don’t have any walls, storage pieces like this can help to delineate spaces and keep stuff in reach but out of sight. In graphite, the Spin n Store is a good option for industrial lofts.
