Popped into Aldi today, not really go there as other side of town.

Anyway we were looking for a Shelve system to get things off the floor, not really expecting to find anything in there. And what do we find? A folding wardrobe, I must admit we were a little concerned being from Aldi, but we got it home and seem to be the exact one from Moutain Warehouse.

It is well made, loads of space and under £30, seems better than the branded stuff we looked at Go outdoors.

I bought one a couple of years ago but found it difficult to erect so I bought another that just folds up/out instead.  However, the one like yours now resides in the shed and holds all the bbq gear and other stuff.

We use one similar as a larder unit but I have re-enforced the shelves with 6mm ply wood glued to the existing shelves.

Do be careful with the plastic corner pieces as they can break easily. Also the tags at the base are forever pulling away from the seems.

However they are good units, if a bit basic.

Yeah I probably jumped a little, as I don't shop there. It got stigma attached to it, but seems alright.

We off to Europe in summer, so ALDI and Lidi will be our main shopping targets.

We bought one in grey at the end of the season last year (reduced to £20). When we built it up at home, we noticed that some of the material was coming away from one of the zips, but for £20, we didn't bother taking it back. It's been on 3 trips with us; invaluable, although it's now coming away on another part.

Is yours made from canvas, or polyester? Ours is canvas.

canvas, as I say seems a good build quality. If in doubt get the duck tape out :P

I agree, it's good quality Biff0r. The material hasn't come away any further and we loaded ours to the hilt this week. Due to it's height, we also found the top very useful for keys, lights, etc. and the side pockets are very handy indeed!
