What Toy Storage Do You Have?

[BabyHill]

I'm thinking of getting this for under the stairs and the longer one for lo's room but still undecided... what toy storage do you have?

 

[Mummy May]

I, sure these used to be called something else, but this is what we have https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/20275814/ I know a few others on here have them too xx

^^ we have those above but ours were called expedit x

 

[BabyHill]

They're really nice I did look at getting the 4x4 kallax (the expedit were apparently the same but thicker edging or something) but my son loves these, took him to ikea last night but they were oos so ended up queuing for 30 mins for an £8 train track set. I'll be ringing before I drive another hour there!

Same as mummy may with the blue boxes, they fit under his midi sleeper bed too, all toys are under his bed with a tent around he thinks it's his den x

We have the trofast and the expedit. IMO the expedit hold more, are more sturdy and more versatile. The trofast are more 'fun' though and great for 'light' toys in the kids room x

We had some trofast and I don't know whether it was down to bad building or what it was, but the baskets kept falling off the runners and drove me mad! It could have been us building it wonky though!

We have the old expedit and they are great and very durable

Expedit that's it!! Xx

Do you mean that? Loved it so took a sneaky photo last night. I'm getting that lo when hes a bit older I didn't even think of storing under his bed

I'm pretty undecided now I may just go for the kallax as I was wanting storage for his duplo, playmobil and train sets mainly with some of his bigger vehicles and the babys toys and if it won't be strong enough theres no point

Or may get the trofast but also get the two cube kallax and turn it to a duplo table. I'm too easily swayed.

Hehe they must of changed the name! this is how LOs playroom is laid out with them
We also have the lack coffee table used as a play table xx

 

[BabyHill]

It'd help if I attached the pic

Yeah they're mostly the same I think, but they don't seem to do the 5x5 ones. X

We have lots of ikea storage in the playroom too, the expedit/kallax range is
fab, I added the trofast boxes to ours.
The taller units we used to make the dress up area & then we used the besta unit
for all her craft bits, I love this as you can easily adjust the shelves to the boxes.

Isabelle's got the kallax (sp) system with boxes in her room... I'm thinking about getting the one with the drawers though for under the stairs x

I may just be a little bit jealous! I LOVE that room, although its as big as my ENTIRE flat!

 

[BabyHill]

Wow loving all the pictures, just gorgeous and makes me really want a playroom!

We went for the trofast, measured up and because its under the stairs the kallax wouldn't have fit. I'm really impressed actually, its roomy, easy for him to access and looks really cute too. Ikea had some cute flower and balloon like solar lights that also take a battery on clearance too so got some sets for the kids rooms... and some candles before I came home and ordered the large baby powder yankee. And kinda bought a couple of shelves for the lounge... and the ikea kitchen! I only went for the trofast too I've spent a small fortune this week. X
