Review on πŸ“¦ Efficient Storage Solution: STANLEY Organizer Box with 25 Removable Compartments and Dividers (014725R) by Jamonte Hamilton

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Well-designed trash cans that almost everyone gets right. The variety of basket sizes available can be frustrating.

I have a few of these to store and organize small items for my shop. The build quality is pretty awesome, and the boxes do a good job of preventing items from jumping between containers when the container is rotated to carry. They fold well and the body is designed to make it easy to assemble a shelving system for them. A clear plastic lid is really invaluable in my opinion as you can either see at a glance what is in each basket or print double sided labels for each basket if for example you stock multiple lengths/sizes of one and the same Type of items (let's say nails/screws) that wouldn't be obvious at first glance. The complaint is that the large Stanley sticker at the top is likely to make everyone want to remove it right away, but it's stuck down with a very aggressive adhesive that's very difficult to remove and requires a little scrubbing to get the residue (and possibly some bits of it) off remove the torn sticker). It's annoying, especially considering the sticker covers multiple containers, but once you remove it the entire lid becomes beautifully transparent. It's like an oversight like they only had some kind of glue in the factory and they just used it. Another potential problem is that there aren't many different containers for this system. There are 3 sizes for a shallow container (this one) and a matching deep container, but that's about it. You can find them on the Stanley parts website where they are listed along with other replacement parts. They're around $1 plus shipping, but you just don't have the same array of options as some of the more expensive fine detail systems. For my purposes I find this Stanley system very valuable, but it may not be ideal if you are building a professional environment.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
