Attachment A: TROFAST mesh storage box, which has hundreds of five-star ratings on the IKEA website. It’s designed to be used with the popular TROFAST storage systems, but honestly, I think they’re great on their own.

Steel mesh storage boxes are exactly what I have been looking for for all my belongings. At 16.5 inches long, 11.75 inches wide, and 9 inches tall, it’s roomy enough to hold everything from children’s toys, bedding, and bath towels to pantry items.
It has an extended lip and is designed to fit into the TROFAST storage frame and slide out easily. But it also makes the box easier to access wherever it’s placed, whether it’s in the refrigerator, closet, or bookshelf.
The most important thing is that the TROFAST box is very stylish. Not only does the steel mesh allow you to see what’s inside, but it’s also finished in a beautiful pink powder coat that adds instant interest to any room. Unlike fabric bins that stain or tear easily, these bins are more durable and can withstand spills, bumps, and bumps without any fanfare. Plus, it’s not plastic, which is always a win.

The takeaway here is that the TROFAST Mesh Storage Box will be the MVP of your next organizing project. Therefore, I recommend you buy it at a discount before it sells out.
