IKEA have asked us to find six MNers able to try one of their storage solutions and to add feedback on Mumsnet.

There are six products available for testing and we need one MNer per product. If you are selected for this product test you will be sent the product and will be able to keep it. Everyone who adds feedback will be entered into a prize draw where one lucky winner will receive £100 cash.

Here are the products, links, value and brief description by IKEA:

EKTORP BROMMA footstool - worth £101.10 in "Idemo light brown" - this footstool has a storage space under the seat for magazines, toys, etc

RATIONELL VARIERA plate holder - worth £5.10. "Adjustable in width according to the size of the plates. Can be placed in a deep drawer or on a shelf, or be put directly on the table".

GODMORGON bathroom high cabinet - worth £158.30 in "high-gloss white with adjustable shelves; adapt spacing according to need. Adjustable shelves of tempered glass; extra heat- and impact-resistant and high load-bearing capacity".

STUVA storage bench - worth £76.59 - in "white/ pink - doors, drawers and boxes are both protective and decorative. Low storage to match your child's height; makes it easier for them to reach and organize their things".

TJUSIG bench with shoe storage - worth £61.17 - in white

ANTONIUS frame with wire basket - worth £33.72

If you'd like to take part please add your first and second choice and details here

The products will be sent out directly in week commencing 18th April so please only apply if you are around that week for the delivery.

After you've tried the product we'll be asking you to add feedback to a thread on Mumsnet.

If you already have one of these items (or indeed another storage solution from IKEA), you will be able to add your own feedback to this thread - there will be an additional prize draw for non testers adding feedback where one MNer will win £75 - look out for this later this month.

Thanks and good luck

Done.Am decorating my Goddaughter's bedroom in pink and white--she only has a little room so the pink storage box would be perfect,!

CoffeeGoneColdAgain · 06/04/2011 22:41

Done.

prisonerofazkaban · 06/04/2011 22:47

So its not just me who needs storage then. The kids are much more likely to tidy up after themselves if that have brand spanking new storage to put stuff in. They would think thmselves very important if they were "the IKEA testers" lol

toomuchmonthatendofthemoney · 06/04/2011 23:32

done, happy to test any of them frankly if it helps clear up this bombsite house! ;-0

solo · 06/04/2011 23:51

I've been trying to save up for Antonius x 2 for ages so that when I swap rooms with my Dc's so they get their own space, I'll have something to use because I'm losing one of my wardrobes due to space issues! fingers crossed!

noodle69 · 07/04/2011 06:45

Pick me please! I live with my husband and daughter in a flat and the Ikea Trofast collection has already helped me organise a lot of my daughters toys, and been a lifesaver. I could do with anything that will help with the rest of this place!

Done!

DriverDan · 07/04/2011 10:54

Done! DD would love this her bedroom furniture has literally fallen to pieces!

mohara · 07/04/2011 11:57

Done.......my top two would be ideal but willing to try any of them-anything that stops our house looking like a toyshop would be fantastic! I love having kids, AND having generous family and friends, but I used to have such a beautiful, adult, home........Grin

Mothigail · 07/04/2011 12:06

I'd be happy to! I have a spare room (= junk room) that needs some serious storage solutions.

brookeslay · 07/04/2011 12:26

Done my fingers are tired from entering the product threads and my mouth is
permantely downturned from always losing out.. take pity !!

SoupDragon · 07/04/2011 12:32

God, Morgon, I really need a bathroom cabinet...

BornToFolk · 07/04/2011 13:37

Done!
We already have the footstool and it's marvellous. I put all my knitting gubbins in there and DP and I fight over who's turn it is to rest our legs on it.

DramaInPyjamas · 07/04/2011 15:28

done. I NEED that footstool.

mozette · 07/04/2011 15:29

done!

JumpJockey · 07/04/2011 16:14

We already have the Stuva bench thingy for dd's room (plus the matching drawers) and it's brilliant, can take tons of stuff and is also handy for sitting on. Only criticism is that the 'handles' are a bit far apart for a nipper, she ends up pulling on one only and then it gets wedged, you really need to be able to pull on both at once. Then again she's only two so it's hardly their fault!

PigeonStreet · 07/04/2011 16:17

Done, fingers doubly crossed.
