Sometimes we have to wait just a little longer for the things we truly love. We told you back in November 2010 that the Leander change table was due to hit our shores this month but a slight delay has pushed the delivery date back to late April this year.

The fab news is that you can secure one of the very first to arrive in Australia through Urban Baby, who are taking pre-orders right now for this fabulous piece and its accessories. Here’s what we said about it in November:

Height has always been an issue when it comes to baby gear but Leander has triumphed over this common problem with a height-adjustable platform. This is an innovation new to the change table world and is sure to convert many to the Leander way.

It has a drawer as well as a shelf for hiding the not-so-attractive objects of baby care and later, when the drawer and shelf are removed, the table becomes a very attractive desk under which the Leander chair fits perfectly. Talk about vision!

Waiting just a few more months is nothing when you’ll get a lifetime of use from a true designer piece – it’s $1099 from Urban Baby. The storage baskets come in black or vanilla for $119.95 for a pack of two and the change table towels are $59.95 for two. The Leander change table is available in whitewash, white or walnut, to co-ordinate seamlessly with the Leander cot or bed.
