Review on πŸ” Portable Rolling Organizer by Stalwart Storage: Optimize your Searchability! by Scott King

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A big step up from the box so I'm happy!

I was actually looking for a heavy metal garden cart/wagon but they seem to be out of production - or I don't know where to look. All I could find were instructions on how to assemble my own - it required welding equipment - and plastic, some of these are really expensive so after reading the reviews I got two of these, one for the 'inside' " Mop and so on. and one for "outside" rakes, shovels, trimmers and so on. They were inexpensive, right sized and big enough to actually hold long handles, many other racks were too short to hold the handles upright. They last until I find mine made of metal or start welding (grins). They are plastic as expected and are therefore thin due to the nature of plastic and over time the plastic becomes brittle and warps and breaks. However, they will serve their purpose of tidying up the broom closet and tool shed and keeping long handled items tucked away and better organized. The instructions are minimal and it is not clear what is "front" and what is "back". until you examine the Revain image, or until you assemble it (wrong in my case), but it's pretty easy to analyze (is that good?). "Front" is the bottom of the tray and the U-shaped brackets are the top. This allows you to store heavy, thick-handled objects with the working end down in U-shaped holders - shovels, garden rakes, street brooms, mops. As the heavy ends of these items are lowered and lie in the tray. it keeps the holder stable and prevents it from tipping over. This rack is not heavy or strong enough to store heavy shovels and rakes upside down, it may tip over and fall, which is very dangerous! My "hard push" wasn't enough to snap the legs into place (per the instructions), a rubber mallet did. I wouldn't use a regular hammer as it's still plastic and can break. It has wheels on one end and a handle on the other so you can pick it up and roll it around. It's not designed for riding in the yard, it just makes it easier to shift its location a bit. It has holes on the back both top and bottom so it can be screwed to the wall to make it more stable. It's clear that "40 tools" includes all your small hand tools - pruning shears, wire cutters, feather dusters, gloves and not 40 shovels and brooms. There are 5 "large" U-shaped long handle holders and 5 "small" O-shaped long handled holders for long-handled rags, bulb replacements, fan blade cleaners, etc., and 4 small round holes - my feather duster in one of them. In my case my electric edger fits in one of the U holders but the handle sticks out and covers the next U holder so I only have 4 available so look at your tool handles to find out how many of your items . it will really last. This is exactly what I thought and it will work for now but not forever but it's a lot better than the cardboard tote boxes I used so I'm very happy.

Pros
  • RUGGED CONSTRUCTION. Constructed of durable plastic, this durable garden tool and tool shed organizer will last for many years. The tool stand on wheels is also ideal for brooms and mops in the office.
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
