Board gamers around the world are united in their love of Ikea’s Kallax range as the go-to option for board game storage. The cubic compartments are the perfect size to store the modern square boxes favoured by most publishers, stacked either horizontally or vertically as you prefer. And the subdivisions, alongside options for compartment doors and storage boxes, mean you can also tuck away more oddly-sized games with ease. And of course, like everything else from Ikea, it’s reasonably priced and comes with that Scandinavian sense of effortless cool.

If you’re a big board game player or collector, then very often you’ll want to store stuff that’s related to games but isn’t actually games. A collection of baggies for organizing pieces, poker chips, little pots or cups for components at the table, that sort of thing. And that’s where this cabinet comes in especially handy, with shelves in the main unit that are big enough for board games, and smaller compartments built into the doors for all those little knick-knacks you want to keep together. They’re a great size for small-box card games, too.
