Review on Sterilite 20738006 Small 3 Drawer Unit - White Frame with Clear Drawers (Pack of 6) by Ashley Ray

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great storage solution for K-cup coffee!

I have needed a coffee cup organizer for a few months. I found one that I liked because of the style, except I wanted the sides closed to keep dust out. I didn't like the price either. The large 90-cup capacity is $35 and the 72-cup capacity is $30, and they didn't even have perfect reviews. Some customers have complained about drawers or slide rails getting stuck. I thought it was too much $$ to risk. I've been looking at all the holidays hoping there might be a Black Friday or Cyber Week special, and also after Christmas. Recently my 48k cup strain is no longer available to subscribe and save. I replaced it with another one at 100 and also added another one at 72! what was i thinking Now I really need an organizer before they arrive towards the end of April and I definitely don't want to spend $70 for two! When I was looking for other options, I came across these storage boxes. I really like that it's fully enclosed and protects K-cups that don't immediately come in handy from dust. Based on K-Cup size, the large size should hold 30 per box and 90 per unit. I would have the same capacity in 2 units for $22 as another that would cost $70 for two! It was definitely more in my budget. I ordered a set of four mugs and was happy to retrieve all of the individual K-Cup boxes from my kitchen cupboard as soon as they arrived. I've found that if I alternate the cups backwards and front up, they fit a lot better, but also bigger! Each box holds 35 cups, 105 in total! Wow! The boxes slide very well. I haven't had any jam yet. One odd thing I noticed is that the bottom of the drawer curves up slightly, but a slight push on it bends it and I had no problem popping it back out. Maybe they are made that way in case they are used for heavy items that might otherwise cause the drawer to tip down. I am very satisfied with these coffee storage boxes in k cup quantity and at such a great price! It also works to store tea. I cut off one side of the box and trimmed it short to fit inside the box. The tea bags should be in the box as they are too tall to stand upright, but they also need to be tasty and still well organised, much better than a bunch of boxes scattered all over the kitchen cupboard! I'll try to upload a photo of the tea later. I would highly recommend this to anyone who needs functional K-Cup storage, especially on a tight budget.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful
