Thought I'd revive this thread, as I'm now the proud owner of a Box 4 Blox. It has transformed my life, if you see me walking down the street smiling it's because my Lego problem is no more. The children think I'm mad, as does my husband, but it is the most satisfying piece of kit I've bought in a long time.

Not only does it make tidying up "fun", it has really encouraged the kids to play with their Lego in a more creative way, as the pieces are more accessible. I have spent the last two afternoons sitting with them and helping build things from their books and really enjoyed it too, and up until now Lego has been a complete no go area for me.

Highly recommended!

Excellent, I have been waiting for our collection to expand a bit but will most likely go this way. Am very happy for you... ;-)

I remembered this thread from ages ago and actually looked it up last week now that we are in the (early days!) realms of Duplo and playmobil - found it hilarious! Don't quite have the need for this hallowed box yet but did finally get an Expedit for our open plan downstairs and it had changed our lives already! It's so much better having the toys in easy, ordered bliss - I agree it makes them easier to play with for both parents and children alike!

Really recommend compartmentalising over massive toybox of junk! So much better all round and turning untidy me into someone who quite enjoys tidying up my son's things now!!

I agree. We got Box 4 Blox at Christmas and it's great and makes tidying and playing sooooo much easier :)

I also feel like I am winning the war with lego.

I went to Poundstretcher and bought some of those clear plastic drawer unit things for about ?2.99 each. I then spent a few very boring hours the other Saturday night sorting out flat pieces, bricks, people, weapons etc etc. I used to go clubbing on Saturday nights!
