Review on Elf Stor 40 inch Tall Green Wrapping Paper Storage Box - Model 83-DT5518 by Lexi Mastandrea

Rolls don't last long

I was thrilled to find something to put wrapping paper in to keep in my workshop cupboard. The case makes a high-quality and durable impression. However, I am sending it back due to poor engineering inside. The cardboard grid needs to be larger both in length and width because it needs to be at the bottom to hold together, but it doesn't provide stability at the top where the windrows tip over; and width because it needs to fit snugly in the box to keep the rolls from sagging. The individual compartments that each roll fits in are also oversized unless you're storing brand new large rolls. In the photo, the roles stand nicely and are separated. All of the design flaws listed above contribute to the reels not being able to stand up so they all collapse and this makes the whole thing unbalanced so it tilts and is likely to tip over when heavier reels are placed in it. The ones I have are mostly light but still don't stand up. Too bad I didn't take a picture before packing everything back up!

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
