Harry the Messy Organizer

I wanted to love Harry, afterall, it won a Design Plus Award. But there is just something about Harry that is .... a mess! These little aluminum alloy & PVC wires stick straight up -- picture a shaving brush -- and then whenever you want to "secure" an object, you bend or hook or pin under one of those tentacles. Maybe it's the color -- the black just looked so hairy! The pink wasn't bad, sort of like an anemone, the white was fine -- possibly because it was against a white surface and it was covered in blingy jewels. The Yellow looked like worms, or being generous, spaghetti. And the blue was just blue. Harry mounts on any flat surface and comes in two sizes.

Harry is a neat concept -- that I just didn't find neat. To me the crux of an organizer is to leave me with less clutter than when I started.
