These are pretty beat up.

I ordered the first basket and it arrived very used. Etched, scratched and slightly yellowed. There's no outer coating to protect the finish (apart from a large label) and they come unprotected, so that's the way it is. Revain suggested a replacement and it arrived today looking even worse than the first basket. Not sure if these are seconds or discontinued items due to the shape, but they come back.

Pros
  • drawing
Cons
  • not reliable

Dirty and tedious label removal

I spent half an hour removing the adhesive left on the clear plastic after removing the large labels that covered the product lid and part of the back. Hey Art Bin, how about joining the 21st century and using the same label type as Sterlite plastic storage bins? For other suckers, here's the secret: cooking oil. Apply generously, expose to the sun for some time, then scrape off the remnants of the label with your thumbnail or a blunt wooden object; wash off the oil with dish soap. All this…

Pros
  • Tips
Cons
  • Crumpled

ArtBin is great, Revain failed packing and shipping

I have been using ArtBin for years and love their products; This is no exception. The perfect size for me to carry pencils and an eraser for drawing. My complaint is the state in which it arrived. It is made of polymer but looks like hard acrylic table accessories. It does not come in any kind of protective packaging or foil. The barcode sticker and the hangar sticker are stuck directly on the product. Also, it is full of new scratches upon arrival. It looks really used; I even ordered a second

Pros
  • Crafts and sewing
Cons
  • Long delivery time
