Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good looking but not very functional

CONTEXTI bought these to replace the usual (and unattractive) black mesh/wire commonly found in offices. PROS: They are very affordable! It was only $6 a tray compared to $10 or more! They are beautiful and modern. I like that they are white and look very modern. Excellent quality! They are made of very thick plastic (or other material), very strong and durable. I like it. minuses. Aside from looking good, they really aren't very functional, at least to me. I use these compartments for my bills and when the bottom compartment is full it becomes a chore to get all my bills out. What usually happens is that I end up pushing all the bills to the background. The plastic is slippery, so I only take a few bills at a time. Trying to get your fingers under the paper is a bit tricky without hitting the top mailbox. So I usually just remove the top tray and then save my bills. Some might not think it's a big deal, but I've gone from an easy-to-use basket to a difficult one, that's all. The only other downside is that the tray doesn't have rubber feet so they slide around a lot on my very slick desk. The OVERALL value of the product is definitely there. You can always add your own rubber feet to keep it from sliding around on the table, but in terms of functionality I'm not sure I would order again. Regardless, they look good, so I guess they are?
