UPPDATERA Boxes (White & Antracite) (33.5 cm W x 24 cm D x 14.5 cm H)

I love all the Uppdatera boxes due to the range of sizes and elegant functional design and colour. They're made of very good quality plastic (Kmart's imitation isn't half as good) with rounded edges, two handles (which make it easier to carry them) and lower front wall to facilitate access. I have two large size and two small ones both in anthracite and white colours. I use them to hold containers with painting brushes and tools, small tubes and bottles of paint and other craft tools. They hold ton tons of stuff, even the small sizes, and they are a great way to organise my desk in a way that is both stylish and practical. I love the fact that  I can repurpose these boxes for other uses in the bathroom, pantry or kitchen if needed. They clean easily from paint splashes, as well.

Kmart Large Wire and Wood Shelf

I bought this to add storage space on my kitchen bench, but it turned out to be more of a nuisance. It's a good idea, but my shelf was wobbly and one of the screws would not go in properly. I thought of using it inside my pantry, but, again, it was a bit of a nuisance. I've used it also as floor stand to put my home office cable box . It helped with that. It doesn't stand much weight and, especially in the pantry, reduced the space instead of creating more. 

 

Perhaps it was a faulty item, and other pieces work perfectly, but I found that using a bed tray on my kitchen bench is way better, more stable, and more stylish. 

 

I would not recommend this.
