Perfect for kids toys and craft tools, the Koloro-wagon is a mobile storage unit made up of three stackable boxes.

Each plywood storage box has a set of handles, so that the boxes can be separated and carried around like shopping baskets. When the handles are set straight, they form the upright structure for the stack.
