Discontinued Ikea item - any ideas on the name?

clearingout

Not sure where to post this- this it's most appropriate here!

I have a small wooden storage box from Ikea with 6 drawers, just plain, light wood. I have made it more interesting for my Star Wars mad 6 year old using some left overpaint and a couple of sheets of wrapping paper and a ton of PVA (decoupage). Trouble is, my 4 year old is now demanding his own Ben 10 version and having looked on the Ikea website, it would appear they no longer carry this item.

I have looked on ebay and googled but without the name of it, I'm at a bit of a loss. Any ideas, it's about 12 - 14 inches high, 6 drawers, 3 on each level. Would sit on a desk top without too much trouble.

I dare say I'll find one at a car boot sooner or later but could do with it to be sooner as am feeling a bit guilty!

thanks for any ideas!

yep! that's exactly it - only with 4 more drawers! He doesn't want that one (tried him with it), he wants the same as his brother! I have found a few things suitable on ebay - one is a treasure chest so am trying to talk him into it but he's a stubborn little chap at the best of times!

will have a look at hobbycraft website.

thanks for trying!

isn't that always the case? I google and come up with something but not quite and then someone else finds it (or as near as damn it) straight away! I'll see what he says!

I agree on the name though, I have one of these little chests too.
