forgot to mention ------someone else said that 2 15 qt Sterilite bins fit in the cubby too. (Stacked). Similar to the sweater boxes, but not as great of a fit.
Of course cheaper though.
something else to consider.

Thanks for your time!
We don't have a container store nearby, and I already had the Sterlite 15's in the house. I love them. Sorry it is sideways, I can't figure out how to rotate it right now.
Sorry everyone, I meant 27 qt. I really suck a posting pics, my DH had to help me last night to sent them to PMJ, so let me see if I can get them to post...

(note that in the top right corner of the above pic on the shelf is one of those fabric target boxes, I got one to try it out that I feel is too flimsy for anything more than a few stuffed animals)

(This is a close up and I personally feel that these containers are pretty perfect. I don't want them to be an exact fit, since I think it's harder for the kids to get them back into the shelf. A little wiggle room is ok for me. They are also extremely sturdy. My boys have broken MANY plastic toy bins, it is ridiculous, and so far I have had these for 2 yrs and none of them have been broken).
Oh and yeah, as you can tell, I do not have a blog worthy playroom, lol. Sorry for the mess!

"Someday, I am going to go to bed without toys on the floor and sippys in my sink. Things will stay where I put them and I can have nice, fragile items on display. But when I do, I will look around with a wistfullness in my heart and miss the days where vibrant imaginations ran wild and there was evidence of life happening around me all the time!"
Here are the Sterilite Ultra baskets (image found on amazon)

The three drawers are used for puzzles. The large alphabet/number puzzles from m&d don't fit so I put them on top.
