Product description
The essentials
If you want tidy shelves without committing to rigid storage, these SONGMICS storage cubes are built for that middle ground: they’re colourful fabric bins with a fold-flat design, so they’re easy to store away when you’re not using them. The set includes six boxes, each sized at 33 x 33 x 33 cm, making them a practical way to organise books, accessories, CDs, or craft items.
On paper, the biggest draw is how straightforward they are to live with. The bins are described as using moisture-resistant, odourless PP sheets (2 mm thick), and they’re also said to be stable and durable. That’s the sort of detail that matters if you’ve previously had flimsy organisers that collapse, smell a bit odd, or look messy after a while.
Before you buy, though, it’s worth being honest about limitations: as fabric collapsible cubes, they’re not designed to replace hard-sided drawers if you need maximum structure or heavy-duty storage. And because the set is based around cube units, measuring your shelf space is non-negotiable.
Key specifications

What you’ll notice day to day
The design aims to make retrieval easy. Each cube has a convenient grommet handle, so it’s simpler to pull a bin out from a cube shelf and carry it around when you’re sorting. That small touch can feel surprisingly useful when you’re doing quick “tidy-ups” rather than full-on organising sessions.
The foldable approach is another practical win. You can set the cubes up by placing the base panel inside, and when you’re not using them, you can fold them flat to free up space. If you’ve ever had spare baskets taking up cupboard room, this should appeal.
In use, they fit naturally into a living room or bedroom routine: for example, you could dedicate one cube per category—books in the study, art supplies or CDs in the living room, and clothes or accessories in the bedroom. The rainbow look also makes them more than purely functional storage, which can be a plus if you don’t want everything to feel hidden.
Where it shines (and where it may not)
Where they shine: If your goal is soft, flexible organisation that fits cube storage units, these are a sensible pick. The bins are described as compatible with IKEA cube storage cabinets, or cube shelves that are 33.5 cm or larger—so you’re less likely to end up with boxes that barely fit or buckle in the frame.
A couple of realities to keep in mind: - You’ll want to check your exact shelf openings. While compatibility is mentioned for 33.5 cm or larger, your unit needs to match that spacing. - Because they’re foldable fabric cubes, they’re best suited to everyday storage rather than something like heavy, sharp, or extremely weighty items that would demand rigid walls.
What matters most before you buy
These are the things to double-check so you don’t get caught out:
First, dimensions and fit. The cube size is clearly stated as 33 x 33 x 33 cm, and the guidance says they suit cube storage cabinets, or cube shelves that are 33.5 cm or larger. Measure your available space, including how the shelf frame affects usable width.
Second, how you plan to organise. They’re ideally suited to categories like books, CDs, craft supplies, clothes and accessories—items that are easy to store in fabric bins. If you’re trying to store something that needs stiff support, you may find these come up short.
Third, odour and moisture resistance expectations. They’re described as odourless and moisture-resistant thanks to moisture-resistant PP sheets. That’s helpful for day-to-day home storage, but it’s still worth using common sense if your space is particularly damp.
Final verdict
Is it worth it?
Worth considering if you’re building a tidy cube-based setup and you like the idea of collapsible fabric bins with handles, especially for everyday items like books, accessories, CDs, and craft bits. The set of six is also convenient if you’re filling multiple compartments and want a consistent look.
It may not be the best match if you need rigid structure, plan to store very heavy items, or you don’t have cube shelves that can accommodate the 33 x 33 x 33 cm size (with the stated 33.5 cm or larger guideline).
If you prioritise flexible storage that’s easy to pull out and fold away, these SONGMICS cubes make practical sense for a bedroom, study, or living room where you want order without clutter.
