Space is at a premium in many British homes, and children's rooms often feel it most, needing to hold a bed, a wardrobe, clothes and a growing pile of toys within a modest footprint.

Choosing a toy box sounds simple until you see how much sizes vary, and getting it wrong means either constant overflow or a box that dominates the room.
