If there’s one thing most of us can agree on, it’s that you can never have too much storage, especially as the years go by and our collections of ‘just in case’ items seem to multiply.
Whether you’re downsizing, decluttering, or simply trying to make the most of every square centimetre in your home, finding affordable, practical storage solutions is a must.
And according to thousands of happy shoppers, one item might just be the answer we’ve all been searching for.
The SKUBB storage case has become a cult favourite among IKEA fans, and it’s easy to see why. Priced at just $15, this unassuming storage hero has racked up more than 1,600 five-star reviews and an average rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars.
‘SKUBB is the ideal storage solution: lightweight yet sturdy, it keeps stored clothes and textiles fresher for longer with ventilation nets in each corner to allow air to circulate,’ Helen Longford, IKEA sales leader, explained..
So, what makes the SKUBB so special? For starters, it’s designed to fit perfectly under beds, on top of wardrobes, or inside closets—making it ideal for stashing away seasonal clothes, spare bedding, shoes, or even those sentimental keepsakes you can’t part with.
Made from 90 per cent recycled polyester, it’s also a win for the environment. It comes in several sizes, but the 93x55x19cm version maximises under-bed or wardrobe space.
It has integrated handles on two sides, so you can easily slide it out—no more awkward tugging or heavy lifting.
There are ventilation nets in each corner that help keep your clothes and linens fresh, reducing the risk of musty smells.
Available in two neutral colours, SKUBB blends seamlessly with most décor, and its clean lines keep your storage looking tidy, not cluttered.
The sturdy design also means you can stack them on top of each other, making the most of vertical space.
The reviews speak for themselves. One commented, ‘I’m storing a wedding dress in the storage case. I trust it more than the cardboard boxes the experts recommend.’
Another customer shared, ‘I purchased six of these to put on the top shelf of my built-in wardrobe for seasonal clothing and handbags. They’re sturdy, look good, and sit beautifully on each other. My built-in has no doors, so it’s made a big difference. Highly recommend if you need more space with aesthetics in mind.’
One shopper added, ‘Fantastic for shoe storage under the bed. I can fit up to 10 pairs of sandals or six pairs of runners. Also great for jumpers. Fits perfectly on top of the wardrobe. Best storage ever.’
‘Love this solution for under the bed. The drawers are roomy. I use them for my out-of-season wardrobe and couldn’t be happier. The price is fantastic. I bought four and they fit under a queen-size bed,’ another said.
With the cost of living on everyone’s mind, it’s refreshing to see a retailer like IKEA lowering prices on essentials.
The SKUBB’s recent price drop has seen sales jump by 16 per cent, and it’s just one of over 200 items IKEA has discounted to help Australians stretch their dollars further.
