Playroom Storage Question...

We are in the process of making a little room in our house into a playroom for Alex.
I'd like to get some organizers in there to keep the little toys organized (I know, yeah rightChat Icon ), & am having trouble finding things I like.
I bought something at Target the other day, and as DH was about to put it together today, he though it might be unsafe for Alex, that perhaps she may use it to climb & stuff...Now I'm having second thoughts about it, what do you think?
This picture isn't the exact model, but something similar I found on Ikea's website (when looking under Children's storage)...

I think you're right. I was looking at the ones on Wal-Mart.com and I have to say I didn't even think of that.

But (for example) this one has holes so there would be nowhere to climb...

I LOVE the Pottery Barn Kids set - but maybe for when they're a little older.

That's cute too, but I was looking for more wood-colored ones, just so if one day (in the DISTANT future) if we have another child & it's a boy it will be neutral, ya know?

I would not go too high. I think a row of 2 would be the max I would go to prevent the storage to fall on the child. Unless you can secure it to the wall.

I have looked at those units and really don't like them for the reasons you posted. I have great looking Yaffa crates, in a bubble pattern , in neon colors that match my playroom. Many, many years later they are still going strong.
