For some reason I can't find anything with the specs I'm looking for.
I'm looking for bins with lids to fit on shelves in a unit I have. The openings of the shelves are 11 in wide x 11 high x 10.7 deep.
Ideally I would want to find something cube shaped but the cube bins out there are too big.
If not cube shaped it would fill the space as much as possible.
Clear or solid is fine.
Would anyone want to help out ?

Can you put other items in that storage unit?
Bulkier toys such as trucks or books that don't need a bin?
I browsed Ikea but it looks like everything is bigger by an inch or 2.
Can use it for clothes instead? shoes and piles of sweaters would look pretty in that. Can it be moved into a closet?

I have the ikea kallax units and use the target Sterilite 15q clear bins. I can pile two on top of each other in each cube. Love how neat it looks and they’re cheap compare to others bins on the market. The width for those bins are 11 1/8

Thank you so much! Using some of the shelves for books and other toys.
Yeah basically all bins are 1-3 inches too wide in one direction.
I did find these on Ikea and trying to visualize what would actually fit in these...

That would be perfect if they would fit!

Nothing really. Sorry
I can't see a decent amount of legos or magna tiles fitting in there. How old are your kids. I feel like you will outgrow the bins in a minute.
Your shelf is a Montessori sort of idea. It is meant for open play, easy reach. Not bins.

Still toddlers.
Thank you for your help!

Another option - also no lid but this should fill up the cube all the way so you wouldn't see a gap between the top of the bin and the frame of the cube
