Stokke change table in good used condition, including the desk kit.
The change table sits at a comfortable height, with tall side rails so your baby can lie facing you, with ample storage in the shelves below and the side caddies.
Using the desk kit, the change table can be transformed into a desk which will last for your family long into childhood. We've been happily using it for ten years.
The fabric of the change mat and covers are both a little stained.
There's a small amount of rust on some of the screws, and it's missing some plastic washers.
It arrived with some of the screws in the wrong size, but we haven't had any trouble assembling it. We have been able to get replacement hardware from Mitre 10 when needed.
Over $1000 new.

Price: $350

Ballroom dancing and bowls are among the events coming up at Te Rauparaha Arena, as Porirua’s popular facility welcomes back visitors. After a difficult two years due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Porirua Mayor Anita Baker says it’s fantastic to see the Arena booked for a wide array of events.

Something a bit different this week. I am not sure where Chilli is from but her owner Joy is very proud of her.
"This is my 25year old Chinchilla called Chilli. She is a Standard grey colour, and she is the sweetest wee girl, who loves her cuddles and snuggles with Mum, and loves pats and tickles from all of our family. Its very very rare to have a Chinchilla who loves to be touched as much as she does. She is a rescue who came from people who didn't know how to properly care for her. Her favorite treats are dried Red rose petals, dried rose buds and most of all, her Apple sticks. I love her so much."
Remember if you want your pet featured on Neighbourly, email us on yourpet@dompost.co.nz with a recent photo. Please remember to say which suburb you live in.
