If you are on the fence about investing in a Nilo, don’t be. It will last. You will get your money’s worth.

We’ve had our Nilo table for 11 years. Still in perfect shape, played with every day, plus an overseas move and three stateside moves.

Frequently asked questions

How long does shipping take?

Orders placed Mon-Thu by 3pm PT ship the same day. Most orders ship within 1 business day. Most orders arrive in 3-5 business days via FedEx Ground from the Ernst family workshop.

How much can a Nilo toy chest hold?

The rolling toy chest holds roughly two large bins of toys and tucks under the large play table. The full-size toy box holds about twice that and works as a bench.

Are they safe to sit on?

Yes. Both the rolling toy chest and the bedroom toy box are rated as seating. Solid hardwood lids with safety-slow hinges so they will not slam.

What if my child outgrows it?

These are heirloom-grade. Tables we built in 1992 are still in homes today, being passed down to grandkids. Optional taller leg sets let the same table grow with your child.
