'I cannot tell you my pleasure in looking at this': The storage solution Nate Berkus uses to restore order in his pantry
There's no reason why the most effective organizational methods can't be beautiful – here's Nate's secret to an effortlessly tidy space


Mastering the art of a tidy home is the goal for many, but in the case of Nate Berkus, it is essential. The designer, who lives in Greenwich Village with his husband (and TV counterpart Jeremiah Brent) and two children, has found a way to make urban family life seemingly organized – but he's not scared of showing how he makes it more seamless. And it often starts and ends with his home organization range.
Nate, who designed a collection for mDesign, often shows how he uses his favorite products in his city dwelling, and among these is his 2-Tier Turntable Organizer, which he says 'might actually be one of the most useful home organization items ever.' And, when we see the turntable in action, we are not inclined to disagree.
The designer took to his white kitchen to demonstrate what makes the turntable a must-have, and after seeing it in action in his pantry, we're convinced.

'This is a super exciting moment for me because I have my spinner, which I assembled in two seconds, and now because all my labels are done in my pantry... I get to put everything away,' Nate comments while arranging bottles and jars on the two shelves.
'The crazy part is that this has never been super wonderful as a pantry because it's not very deep, so the fact that now I get to do a good job and put what I need in here, and it spins around and makes it easy to see, makes me very happy.' And naturally, it's not long before Nate shows us the organizer at work in his pantry. 'I can not tell you my pleasure in looking at this,' he says alongside the newly organized space.
The best part? Our own organized pantry is only a click away, but be warned, Nate's mDesign collection has a habit of selling out – and honestly, we're not surprised.
This turntable, designed by Nate Berkus, reimagines the classic Lazy Susan – providing subtle sophistication and natural elements to any pantry. It's the perfect size to fit inside any cabinet or nest on any shelf where contents are hard to reach, while the trays provide easy visibility, making everyday usage seamless.
'I live for moments in life when I get to leave a space more organized than I found it. That is why the Nate Home 2-Tier Turntable Organizer might actually be one of the most useful home organization items ever,' Nate adds.
