Nice! My wife and I love creative uses for IKEA furniture, and I'm a big fan of the EXPEDIT series. Take a look at http://www.ikeafans.com/forums/search.php?do=process&query=expedit&showposts=1 for some other ideas of what people have done with them :-). We ended up putting BONDE in our daughter's room, because we figured the CD drawer would be a BIG need in the future ;-), but the EXPEDIT is a wonderful cost effective solution, esp when combined with some of the pullout baskets/cubes.

I loved the way the top photo has it up on top of the table to make space below it, looks like it just *about* clears the ceiling too.

Apartment Therapy San Francisco | Roundup: Ideas for Ikea Bookcases

Hey Alex!

Ironically I have a 6 year old son named Alex who just graduated to a full size bed (took awhile to convince him to give up the toddler bed ;-) ) and after looking around for a bit we decided on the IKEA SULTAN ALSARP. Mainly because the bed *is* a bit big for his room, and getting all that extra storage space would be a major plus for him.

Anyway, we've got a brief writeup about the process at http://www.ikeafans.com/forums/assembly-installation/10646-alsarp-box-spring-hidden-solution-storage.html

and made some comments about some potential snags in the assembly process at http://www.ikeafans.com/forums/ikea-instructions/10441-sultan-alsarp-box-spring-instructions.html#post74949

Hope it works as well for you as it has for *our* Alex!

James
