IRIS USA 4-Pack Storage Bins with Lids, 15 Quart, Shoe Boxes Clear Stackable Containers Organize Shoes Closet Shelves, Classroom Organization Teacher Tools, Game Storage – BPA-Free Plastic

Great for light but not heavy items, lids not snug, easily cracked
I’m giving these a 5 star rating which is actually a 5 star rating with the caveat that you need to realize that you get what you pay for – – – these are fantastic if you only store light weight items in them, don’t need a tight fitting lid, and don’t need to move or carry them around from room to room.They are great for storage but I definitely would not recommend for toys or supplies that kids would be reaching for daily. If I had my kids’ Lego’s or art markers in them and my kids were pulling these bins off the shelf daily, the Lego’s and markers would probably spend more time scattered on the floor than they would contained in the bins. These bins and lids are just not secure or sturdy enough to contend with anything other than careful handling.After a major renovation of our kitchen, pantry and laundry room, I was on a major re-organizing binge.I ordered 2 sets of these bins, and also ordered two sets of the identical, but tad larger 7qt (13.75″ long) bins (also by IRIS).The 6qt & 7qt are almost the same size (the 7qt are just about an inch longer) and they stack on each other well.I needed both sizes because not all of my cabinets are 14″ deep. The 7qt bins are 13.75″ long and for 14″ cabinets, they are perfect. If you have the cabinet depth, the 7qt makes more efficient use of every inch.Think about what you need these for, realize these are lightweight storage before ordering and you will be happy with them.These are very thin and flexible and though the lids do sort of click on, as soon as you pick up or handle the bin, the Iid pops right off.Also note that the bottoms are not completely flat. There is a slight ridge (no more than 1/8″) that runs about an inch in around the perimeter and crosswise in the middle of the bin.I assume this is there to help to reinforce stability and strength. In most situations this doesn’t matter at all. The only time it matters is if you’re standing small diameter things in the bin because unless the bin is packed full, those will topple over.I’d thought of using this in my pantry to stand condiment bottles in, but the uneven bottoms don’t allow smaller bottles to stand up straight.I was previously using empty salad mix clamshell bins for storage and would double them up to give them more strength. One of these IRIS bins has about the same rigidity of a doubled clamshell bin.I’m using these in my pantry and laundry room to hold things like tea bags, coffee filters, sponges, plastic utensils, napkins, band aids/gauze squares. They’re absolutely great for these kinds of light items. I can reach for a bin with one hand, pull it out and not need to support the weight of it with my other hand.If heavier items were stored in these bins, you’d need to definitely use two hands rather than just grasp a side or end.They fact that they’re thin also makes them great for using as organizers in deeper drawers because they abut each other efficiently side by side without handles or thick rims taking up space. I’m using them without lids to corral Rubbermaid food storage lids, immersion blender and mixer/food processor attachments. I’m ordering another set of the 7qt to use in my dresser drawers for socks, sports bras, undergarments etc.In my experience so far, every order I’ve received came with cracked bins and/or lids. Outer shipping boxes were fine, but it seems that shipping damage is to be expected because they just aren’t packed very well.The items are nicely nested in the packing box however there is no padding or protection around or between them. They are packed in 2 stacks side by side and all the cracks were on the inside corners where the two stacks butted up against each other. A simple sheet of foam between the two stacks may have prevented this damage.I kept a couple of orders that came with cracked lids since I used many of the bins without lids anyway and there were enough in-tact lids to serve my needs. I did need to return an order that came with cracked bins though.Of course Amazon was amazing in letting me return the one set, but that also meant I needed to order a replacement. For some reason, I was only given the option to return . . . not return and replace. I had to place a new order and (dang it) the price had gone up from my original Black Friday sale price.Overall, very happy with these. Know what to expect and you will be too.

Broken lids
I’ve ordered these once before, no issue! But the second time I ordered them, a lot of the lids were cracked. The box was fine and in tact and the base containers were all fine and in tact. Seems like the lids may have been broken when they were placed into the box. I like these boxes, so I’ll give them another chance and order again in the future. They’re easy to use, stack, they safe space at the top of my closet, and I love that I can see all my shoes.

Stackable storage
I used these storage bins in my classroom. Very dependable for small toys, pencils, pen and etc. The lids fit perfect and the boxes to not take up a lot of room. They stack easy on one another and do not just fall off of each other. Get you some of these they are great.

Cheaply made, but adequate – 2 of 20 arrived damaged.
I got the 6qt 20-pack for $33. Two of them arrived damaged (see pic). They were the two on the bottom, so packing needs to be better to protect those two. It’s isn’t really worth the hassle of returning, but if the mfg wants to send me a couple for replacement (and they aren’t cracked) then i will up the stars and make note here.As for the product itself, it’s very cheap, thin plastic, but fine for small, light things. The lids don’t seal very well for extremely dusty environments but should keep things clean enough for storage in-house.

Belle scatole, arrivate in perfetto stato. Materiale in plastica leggera di cui non ho testato la resistenza. Ognuna dotata del proprio coperchio sono utili per riporre oggetti di piccole dimensioni, e grazie alla loro trasparenza si individua subito ciò che si sta cercando. Acquistate per raccogliere mattoncini lego ma le utilizzerò anche per altre cose.

Great just what I ordered

Excellent quality plastic storage. Perfect for all of my kids arts supply to fit into and store away.
