What about laying it horizontally? Is the bottom finished so that I could lay it on its side, or is it for vertical use only?

Hi Corynn, I'm the CEO of Way Basics. The product is used right side up because of it's stacking construction. If you are interested in laying it on its side, you can achieve the similar look with 6 cubes also available on Amazon.com Let us know how we can help! Thank you.

You could set it on the floor in you like. It's a little small for the floor. It's really made to be wall mounted. It does have a flat bottom. I have one sitting on the floor until I get some time to wall mount it with another one.

The holes are pre-drilled. It has been several months since we used it so I'm not sure if it can be used horizontally but I'm sure the would be way

Yes, you can. It is advertised as being able to be used either way, and also says so in the manual. I have two that are mounted vertically and have no issues with them. :)

I do not see why you couldn't. Assuming you mean on its side so the grill is facing forward still. If you mean lay it on its back, then obviously air flow would be restricted and I don't think you would get full use. the only thing to keep in mind, is the air is ejected from the top. So if you put it on its side it's now pushing air along the floor which might affect the way it circulates air within the room.

you can only fold it so it sits horizontal. it does not stand up vertical by itself

It should be mounted vertically! It won't work well horizontally. Sorry for the late response---we are visiting relatives in Sweden.

If you use the hook, it hangs vertically. Because it's gravity driven, it cannot be used horizontally unless you build a special sheath for it. Hope this helps.

It has a flat bottom so you should have no problem with laying it on the ground and using it!!!!

The unit only has legs at the bottom. But, I don't assume it would hurt anything if it was laid on its side. I would not lay it on its back since that's where the exit vents are located.

This unit was a gift to my son who now uses it in his business so I do not have an answer. I do know there are rubber feet used while horizontal. Also, there is a need for cooling that may be affected by standing it. Sorry I could not have been more helpful.

I never considered mounting it vertically, but I don't see why not. The base of the paper roll would rub against the bottom, but it still should work just fine. Good luck!

Definitely. I placed mine on it's side, rather than upright, but it's pretty heavy duty. One side of mine cracked during shipping (USPS did a crappy job), and the company replaced it for me with no hassle.

You can do both. It is a solid piece of wood, like an old platform bed. You can put up against a wall or center of room. It looks fine.

Yes it can lay on its side although the stand is as shown in the picture a triangular shape. It may be awkward but I don't think if left will fall over

You'd have to lay it on its side. The top trays can be adjusted for length only.

The edges are curved, which would work against it standing up easier in a vertical configuration. The base is also made of "impact-resistant tempered glass" and I'd personally not want to "test" it too much. In theory, if it were carefully leaned against the wall of a cabinet under a sink, maybe tilted back a bit, or held in place by something... generally speaking, vertical storage probably wasn't considered in the design. EDIT: I will concur with Jennifer though, it is thin. I just set in on top of something else when I store it.
