http://www.papercraft4u.co.uk/index.php?id=17 If so what do you think about it? I have been contemplating buying this for some time, but can't seem to find any reviews on it... I am fed up of having boxes cluttering up the corner of the living room, and wasting so much time looking for things. I would be grateful of your opinions. Sheran x

If you read further down Linda it tells you it is flat packed for you to put together.

Same here. The thing is I know I could fill it but to justify the expense I would have to sell
an aweful lot of cards. But if I won the lottery!!! it would be on my list. Jen |

Saw it at the NEC a couple of years ago prior to UK launch.Thought it a good idea & brought a leaflet home.It actually sticks out 3ft when its folded
up.you also need a lot of space width wise for when its opened up. I also thought that if you used the work table you would be working with your back to the
light which would'nt be any good for me. So i did'nt buy.

I've seen it lots in various mags and drooled!!!, but I've nowhere to have something like that. If you've got space Wow what a way to get
organised.

It looks great, but the price put me off. I just keep thinking how many cd roms and stamps and other goodies I could buy with that money.

My flat mate just said that if she bought one at that price she would want a team of nicely oiled young men to put it together for her!!
My shed didn't cost as much as that! |

I've dreamed of one of these for ages but no way could I pay the money. But I'm thinking it would double as a study corner for OH doing his open
university as well. Now he's just finished building some nice raised beds for the garden, surely a craft corner wouldn't be THAT difficult - would it
 I would get back my dining table and all that "stuff" under
the stairs. I'll put it to him.

A few peeps on docrafts have them and are pleased with them. I didnt fancy the desk area, didnt seem big or sturdy enough for me so used a welsh dresser
filled with those clear a4 & a5 boxes. Worked perfectly until eldest moved out & I pinched his room |

I'm put off by two comments:
Portable - think of turning up at your craft group with this on a roof rack
Collapsible table - probably when it's covered in every glitter pot you possess minus their lids

A few years ago I shopped around and got myself some specially made fitted wardrobes for half the amount in the shops, I think I
would prefer to get a craftsman in to build something that looks like a peice of furniture and is nice and sturdy then all could be behind closed doors and
blend in with current furniture which is all mahogany,unfortunately most furniture these days tends to be the lighter wood which is the trend for now,that is
a good idea but too bulky for a smaller room.

I think it looks nice, but big. We have some units at work that I have my eye on. They are tall. thin beech units, and if one doesn't become available soon
I am going to have one purpose built. The top half is divided into 3 columns, and has 9 'pigeon holes' per column, each pigeon hole is slightly smaller
than A3 paper and could easily store two reams of A4 card. The shelves are removable. There is then a very sturdy slide out shelf that could act as a desk top.
Underneath is a large cupboard with two doors and two shelves. I think it might be a piece of mail room equipment, but it would be ideal for storing most of my
crafting goodies. This unit would just look perfect in my home and I am really hoping one comes up soon!
