Ticked off

My order arrived yesterday and 2 of the 4 totes are unusable by me.

High quality bins with gaskets

I truly love these storage bins; I just wish I could find more sizes. Had I seen these two years ago, I would have gladly paid extra to have when moving, instead of the ones I have which are still good bins. Only these by Sterilite and another brand have the great extra sealing latches and gasket to keep your valuables protected from dust and mildew.

Gasket and latch design protect items in storage

The Sterilite 80 qt Gasket Box is a great storage choice. I love the gasket and latch design so I can feel good knowing that my items are not being exposed to dust, moisture, and insects in my Florida garage. The bin seems to be holding up well in the heat of the summer and I appreciate the squared design to allow for easy stacking. The clear sides make it so much easier to see what I needs and get to it faster. I will be purchasing a few more to complete the shelf after receiving this bin in exchange for opinion.

Don't buy these bins, latches are trash

Save yourself the hassle and find something else. The latches' quality is poor and will last you about a month with normal daily use even if you're being gentle. My first latch broke off within a week and the latch was only used a few times, the second latch broke off weeks later with minimal use as well and 5-6 months later a third latch broke. The blue latch is made with plastic that breaks off easily with repeated use. Without the latches in place, these storage bins are useless since there will be nothing to keep the lid closed.

Look elsewhere for storage bins....

Love the boxes, shipping was problematic

I love these gasket boxes, perfect for protecting yarn from bugs and dust. I ordered 2 sets of 4, and unfortunately one box and one lid were damaged. I thought I could just exchange the broken box for a new one at Walmart, but found I would have to return an entire set of 4. So I am keeping the broken box, trying to sand the jagged edges and glue any pieces I find. Overall I love these boxes, I just wish the boxes were protected a bit during shipping.

Great to keep stuff out of!

I have been buying these for 12 years. They do a great job at keeping things like moisture and cigarette smoke out of whatever you're storing. I love them for that reason. The thing with these is; the latches constantly break off so I'm constantly having to buy new ones or save all old latches and continuously switch them around. I guess if you store things you don't open weekly, they're perfect.

A good product but came broken

I love these products, but one of the lids came shattered in the corner. There was no availability for item replacement, and if you wanted a refund you would have to return the entire items. I had 8 perfectly fine bins and 7 perfectly fine lids, but to be able to get 1 good lid I'd need to return all of them and repurchase 8 more. With a very inconvenient method of replacement, and the risk of them being damaged during shipping again, I just ended up keeping them all. Not sure if I will re order from here if I need more...

Great product, poor packing...

I have recently purchased several of these on Amazon, and overall, I love them! Great to store things away and not have to worry about bugs and dirt getting in (got rid of tons of cardboard boxes)... AND I can see what is in the boxes. UNfortunately, almost every order came with a cracked tote... usually the bottom one. Contacting the sellers and getting things straight is sometimes a pain... and I feel like they are probably thinking I'm looking for freebies or money back. NOT... I just want a new product for what I am paying. I contacted Sterilite and suggested a layer of bubble wrap on the bottom of the box. I was told that they don't ship to individuals, just distributors, and that's their problem. But... the totes ship out to the distributor in a Sterilite, so the distributor just ships to the buyers in the same boxes. Unless they open them and do the padding themselves, you're going to get a cracked/busted tote, almost every time. And then they eat the cost on replacement.

Great Size and Easy To Open And Close

This is the container I purchased to store items that I only use while baking or decorating. Piping tips bags, etc. and certain gel coloring, pans, and icing spatulas. Perfect for my use. I have very arthritic hands and this container is easy to seal and open. This container helps me stay organized and know where all of my specialty baking items are. I recommend.
