A lot of people don't realize this but.. you can put your Harry under there. Any more question, I'll be in the back sleeping.

[–]NathanExplosions 8 points9 points ago

I was thinking Spot from The Munsters. Fuck I am old.

[–]ZoidbergTheThird 0 points1 point ago

Didn't even need to Ctrl+F Harry.

[–]botgimp 17 points18 points ago

I guess. Unless your house is set up like most and you need that room to access the basement. :/

[–]tomyownrhythm 8 points9 points ago

I have a space under my (finished) basement stairs that would benefit from this. I'll have to figure out how to make it happen!

[–]leechsucka 5 points6 points ago

A closet would be much easier to do. Although, alot of space is wasted for walking room.

[–]EquinsuOcha 20 points21 points ago

You should save alot of space.

[–]tomyownrhythm 0 points1 point ago

yeah, I've been debating. Though the stairs are narrow, so it might end up being a closet with shelves all the way from back to front.

[–]clouds12 6 points7 points ago

I've never been inside a basement in my entire life.

[–]revoopychris 1 point2 points ago*

I'm from Texas and I once looked down into a basement but it was full of garbage to the point where you couldn't get down there.

Edit: That's my only experience with a basement in person ever.

[–]philge 1 point2 points ago

Where do you people live that you don't have basements?!

[–]revoopychris 2 points3 points ago

In Texas we have a lot of vertisol which is super shitty soil for basements and foundations in general because it expands and contracts a large amount based on moisture and in texas we have a super dry season and a fairly rainy season and this causes the basements to spring leaks and shit.

You can counteract vertisol by watering it year round but it's more economical to just build an equally big room above ground since land is generally cheap here and basements are expensive.

[–]BurningKarma 5 points6 points ago

Unless your house is set up like most and you need that room to access the basement

Well that depends entirely on where you live.

[–]FataOne 2 points3 points ago

Like most? In a certain part of the country maybe. Basements are few and far between in the south.

[–]NottaGrammerNasi 1 point2 points ago

I ripped up a few of my steps to replace the boards and I know there's no room under mine for this very reason (to access the basement). However, there were two stairs that could be made into a pull out drawer-steps.

[–]kuvter 1 point2 points ago

Except in states like Florida where if you dug down 2 feet you'd sick the whole state.

[–]cometparty 11 points12 points ago

We had a closet underneath our stairway. Storage underneath the stairs is not a new or innovative concept.

[–]kk_Broseph 16 points17 points ago

True, but you have to admit that this is maximizing the efficiency of that space unless you want to put larger things in there.

[–]abasss 4 points5 points ago

Yeah, my house has storage underneath the stairs, but this looks more organized.

[–]angryPenguinator 2 points3 points ago

I have other stairs under my stairs... this is just a tease.

[–]kuvter 4 points5 points ago

You could still build this under your basement stairs. Unless every set of stairs you have goes on infinitely, in which case I doubt you need the extra room for storage.

[–]SirAuron 1 point2 points ago

And you could also Assassin's Creed your way up to the second floor by running up the shelves instead.

Fuck you, Mind_Virus.

Don't upvote this serial reposting karma whore.

[–]philge 0 points1 point ago

This is the most ridiculous novelty account I've ever seen! Do you really reddit-stalk Mind_Virus and leave these comments?!

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

I don't stalk him, but every time he karma whores on a subreddit I frequent I post this, and I'm not the only one who does it to him. I wouldn't bother if he didn't do it with such frequency, he reposts ~100 links a day.

[–]philge 0 points1 point ago

The fact that he is getting upvotes shows that he is contributing to the community. If the community didn't want to see it, they wouldn't have upvoted it. Why are you so butt-hurt?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

I'm not butt hurt per se, like many redditors I can't stand serial reposters. I downvote him and comment on his submissions because I don't agree with what he does. Other people may do the same or they may upvote and defend him. I'm just getting the information out there.

[–]philge 0 points1 point ago

This isn't even a repost. Checked Karma Decay. It was posted 9 months ago on a different sub!

You shouldn't mass downvote someone else's posts, it's part of reddiquette. Downvote or upvote based on the quality of the submission, not because you have some kind of strange vendetta against the poster!

I'm glad that I got to see this post. I really like the idea of that kind of storage under the stairs. Thanks for the cool post, Mind_Virus!

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Fair enough, you can upvote him then. I wish you would reconsider and look more into his history and what he does, but you have the right to your own opinion. I'd rather not have someone constantly spamming my favorite subreddits.

[–]philge 0 points1 point ago

Then downvote the spam and move on! I wouldn't consider this post spam as it has not yet been posted on this board. I don't give a fuck what he does honestly. If a post is interesting, upvote it. If it's not, downvote it.

You are making reddit a worse place with your little crusade.

[–]bluemirror -1 points0 points ago

it'd be extra cool if the panels were transparent.
