When we got together here at GBHQ (that's Greeno Bambino's
International Headquarters, of course!) to discuss what to look for in
a non-toxic kid's furniture company, there was no shortage of ideas.
In fact, we had so many gripes with the options we'd encountered that
our wish list started out more like a wish not list.
We all
agreed that most kid's furniture was either too cheap, too expensive,
too ugly, too toxic, too uninspired, too environmentally irresponsible,
or too difficult to put together. So we went in search of something
that was the antithesis of all these qualities, and our wish was
granted when we found Ecotots.
Ecotots is everything we could
have asked for in children's furniture: thoughtfully designed with a
playful yet timeless aesthetic; built to last a lifetime (and
guaranteed to do so); designed and made in the USA (and sourced
completely from within North America); non-toxic; eco-friendly; and
literally a snap to put together. Plus, though more expensive than the
nearly disposable furniture you'll find in big box stores, it's much
more sensibly priced than most other high-end furniture options.
The Big Kahuna Bookcase features a durable, 100% non-toxic, water based
UV-cured finish, and
assembles in minutes with a patented no-tools/no-hardware method. It
is constructed from six pieces of formaldehyde-free, Forest
Stewardship Council (FSC) Certified, environmentally friendly Birch
veneer plywood - not that particle board junk with which you've
probably become all too familiar. Cleverly built with each shelf slightly shallower than the one below it, your kid will have no trouble finding her favorite stuff quickly. And like all Ecotots
furniture, it's extra-wide at its base to provide for stable, safe,
anti-tip storage.
Whether you put it in the playroom, the bedroom or the family room, Ecotots is such sweet goodness that you'll probably wish
you had some for your room.
Available in 4 smart colors: Cocoa, Fire, Leaf and Natural.
Ecotots
