Box4Blox LEGO storage units have been around for a while, but as so many of us continue to stumble over (or, worse yet, step barefoot on) stray pieces from the holiday LEGO sets that've long since been broken down, these handy little boxes are worth revisiting.
Think of each Box4Blox as a strainer for LEGO bricks: Shake the top tray, and the smaller pieces fall through to the next level. Do the same with the second tray, and the next-smaller-sized pieces drop yet one more level. And so on. When all is shaken and sorted, you've got four neatly organized trays' worth of bricks -- or more, if you buy additional units.
Unfortunately, there's no Box4Blox solution for those odd-shaped, geometrically challenging pieces that seem to be standard in so many modern LEGO sets -- but if you can quickly put order to the gazillion other pieces that are littering the playroom, such quibbles seem minor.
$29.95 for one four-tray storage unit, or $59.90 for a double pack, at Box4Blox.
