The Cyxphion 3-Tier unit provides a hybrid storage approach by combining 12mm MDF panels with injection-molded polypropylene (PP) bins. The melamine coating on the frame is designed to resist staining from crayons and markers, offering better durability than standard paint. The removable bins are impact-resistant and can be cleaned in a dishwasher at temperatures under 60°C, which is a practical feature for maintaining hygiene in a playroom.
Specifications indicate the bin height is optimized for children aged 2 to 5 years. While the unit is structurally sound for light toys, the front-facing bookshelf tier has a weight threshold of approximately 15 lbs. Exceeding this limit with heavy hardcover books can lead to bowing of the shelf. The assembly relies on zinc-alloy cam-locks; care should be taken during setup to ensure parts are aligned to prevent hardware damage.
To assist with home safety, it is recommended to use an L-bracket for wall mounting if your home has baseboard molding. This ensures a flush connection, as the unit does not have a deep recess at the back. Initial assembly may release a noticeable scent from the materials, so ventilating the room for 24 hours after setup is a helpful practice.
- Use the plastic bins for smaller, sorted toy sets like building bricks or cars.
- Keep the heaviest items in the bottom tier to maximize stability.
- Clean the melamine surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent for best results.
If you are looking for a unit that offers more cubby-style storage without bins, the 5-Cubby Toy Storage Organizer with Bookshelf might meet your needs.
Efficiently managing a mix of books and small parts is easier with the systems found in our low toy shelves department.
