Size and Fit

Pros:

  • "If you are thinking of a decent size for underwears or socks I got large for me and for my husband I got the jumbo large!! Fits great in our closet shelves!"
  • "I love how deep the storage containers are. Fits perfectly on shelves of changing table, 3 fit on one shelf of changing table."
  • "These are a perfect fit for wire closet shelves (when turned sideways)."
  • "I also fit nearly an entire case of printer paper into the one in my office."
  • "These fit in my closet just perfectly."
  • "They are the perfect size to hold just the right # of books to keep the weight manageable."
  • "Perfectly fit under our bed, they’re super cute, the rope handle makes them easy to pull in and out."

Cons:

  • "Not as big as you would think, I got the jumbo, they are not as big as I was expecting."
  • "I was expecting a much larger box but the large seems small. I think the sizing is way off."
  • "The pictures make it look like these are generously sized, so I was shocked (and disappointed) when I assembled these. They are not as large as I expected."
  • "I ordered these thinking they were were taller than they actually are. I wanted to put them on top of our hall tree, but they look too short, and jut out too far."
  • "The dimensions of the Jumbo size are inaccurate. It is about an inch wider than listed."
  • "The large is listed as 10 inches wide which would have been perfect. They are not 10 inches wide - they are about 10 and 3/8 inches wide."
  • "So friggen annoying. How hard is it the measure your product. These are not 8” high they are talker by 1/4 inch so I have to send back amd start over."

Assembly and Handles

Pros:

  • "Love the look of the basket however you do have to tie all the handles on yourself which I didn’t realize. Super easy but does require some self assembly."
  • "I like the rope handles, and you attach them yourself so can adjust the length if desired."
  • "You do have to tie in the rope handles (which, by the way, are super-super-soft!) yourself, but that's not difficult."
  • "The handles are so easy to grasp onto."
  • "The pull rope is a nice touch."
  • "These are very well made, the material is great, durable and sturdy, unlike others that are flimsy or get flimsy with time and use."
  • "You just follow the instructions and put the rope through the holes & tie it."

Cons:

  • "Only thing that was effy was the handles You have to tie them inside and they are a bir bulky."
  • "These are super cute and good, but they are a bit flimsy. They aren't super sturdy."
  • "I didn’t see any instructions for the giant ropes that take up half of the inside of the container."
  • "Also the cord handles were different lengths from one batch of 3 to the other. Seems like there's little quality control."
  • "The ropes take up such a sizeable portion of the storage space. I just don’t love that."
  • "The only drawback is that the rope handles (which don't come attached -- you'd have to put them through the holes and tie a knot in each end), while nice looking, would have taken up a decent amount of space inside the bin where I couldn't stack books, so I just left them off and stored them in a drawer."
  • "The rope handles are knotted in the basket which is clunky and takes up space."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

  • "They are very sturdy and easily stored when not in use."
  • "They stay in shape as they show pictured. Sides do not flop down like I seen in other styles."
  • "Absolutely love them! It’s well made and the materials that were used feels like it will hold up well."
  • "They are sturdy and seem like they will last a long time."
  • "These are very well made, the material is great, durable and sturdy, unlike others that are flimsy or get flimsy with time and use."
  • "The quality is amazing! They're sturdy and well-made."
  • "They are durable - not flimsy."

Cons:

  • "I don't think they would last long in the hands of children, but for my purposes they work."
  • "Ordered a 3 pack and box only had two boxes and was short 3 rope handles."
  • "When putting the bottoms in on one of the 6 I received, about 2” of stitching ripped out of the bottom of one."
  • "The material lining the bin and keeping the bottom in place is made of that cheap fabric that falls apart after a few years, making it pointless to use long-term."
  • "But then 5 months into using them they have fallen apart (ALL OF THEM)."
  • "I used my bin to hold hand towels and when I brought it down to put more towels inside, the bottom completely fell out from underneath."
  • "I was so excited for these storage bins but when they showed up they were ALL rust stained."

Appearance and Style

  • "I love that they are pink. Not a color you find very often in storage bins."
  • "They look lovely on my shelves and have really leveled-up my craft room."
  • "The striped pink fabric is cute."
  • "The color is absolutely stunning, makes any room look well put together."

Cons:

  • "Not White color as indicated, which is why I ordered these and disappointing."
  • "It is more of a light beige color. However I am keeping them....I think the description online with Amazon should be more accurate."
  • "The color shown in the pictures looks more like a light gray. This product is tan and off white."

  • "Nothing 'cheap' about these boxes except the price."
  • "These are so good and worth the money!"
  • "Great value! I will be clicking 'Buy it again' in the very near future for other organizational projects I have planned."

Cons:

  • "I also feel like they are about seven more dollars than one should pay."
  • "Now they are $25. Please go back on sale so i can buy them."
  • "I would mention that there is an Amazon Basics Storage cube set 13x13x13 that currently offers 6 slightly larger cubes for just $2 more than the cost of this 3-cube set."
  • "Not worth the price at all."
  • "Original order didnt have lids. Asked for a replacement or to just send the lids, and i got ANOTHER ORDER WITHOUT THE LIDS!"
  • "I think my so-so review is just based on personal preference for hard plastic boxes, rather than cloth ones."
  • "Really feel Amazon should have made it right and saved the trouble."

Smell and Chemical Concerns
