How do you all like those toy organizers? Its a rack that holds rubber cubbies to store toys in,?

Question

They are on sale right now at Target and I was just wondering how you all like them????

Answer 1

I personally love them. So do my kids! I have had them since my kids were about 2 and we still use them. It is easy for them to see what they have and then when they are done they just throw it back in the cubbies. I recommend them.

Edit...Just to let you know we have the heavy one anchored to the wall.

Answer 2

I haven't tried those ones but I've always wanted to try one.  I use the plactic drawers they sell for toys.  We have lots of them around the house and I couldn't live without them.  We are so organized, especially my son's room with those thousands of pieces.

Answer 3

Well, there is one similar to that on display at a local hardware store and I thought (from a distance) it looked awesome. But when I pushed and pulled on it like a child is likely to, it was not very sturdy. I don't know if this is the exact same style as you're thinking of getting but just be aware (and save your receipt).

And as someone above mentioned already, they can also be strangulation hazard. Apparently the unit fell over on a child and the wooden rod that holds the bins pinned him down at the neck, strangling him.

Answer 4

They are nice,just be carefull with them.A few months ago I read a story about a toddler who had one fall on top of them and their sibling couldn't lift it and the child died.Scary,but I don't know how old your child is.

Answer 5

I have one that uses the fabric type basket bins for use in son's play area.  I love it!  It is so easy for a toddler to keep organized this way with a bin for blocks, one for cars, one for puzzles, one for leap pad stuff, one for mega legos, one for balls etc....   It's easy to see where things are and easy to pick up and keep the area clean- a big plus with a toddler in the house!!!
