Amazing for the price!

As a 1st Grade Teacher, durable book bins are of the highest priority! These are the perfect size to fit tons of books, and they never tip over! I have some students that fit up to 10 books in their bins and they show no "wear and tear” on them 8 months into the school year! I absolutely love these bins!

Pros
  • Front and rear handles for easy gripping
Cons
  • The bins are not hygienic

Too small for most cans

I purchased then to use for canned goods storage. I got the large size and even measured the standard can which is 4 1/2" which should have fit. The bins are actually 4 1/8 inches on the outside!They are study and we'll made in Canada. Using them for other items, just not what I intended.

Pros
  • Nice, sleek. A little snug for file folders though.
Cons
  • The bins have sharp edges

Sturdy and colorful

They're sturdy but every once in a while it tips over holding 20 students folder with work. It does look presentable and keeps the folders/work organized.

Pros
  • ‎70113U06C
Cons
  • The bins are not comfortable to touch

Not as strong as I’d hope

These are a little more flimsy than I’d expected. I received PTO money for this, or id return them. I’m only expecting them to last a year or two.

Pros
  • Filing Products
Cons
  • The bins are not suitable for a classroom

Great for heavy testing kits!

I work as a Speech-Language Pathologist in the schools and I am fortunate enough to have a generous testing library. However, storing these testing kits has been an issue. I had used paper boxes prior and they often ripped and teared when I would pull them off the shelves. I needed something stronger and these large book bins did the trick! I love how big they are and also how sturdy they are. I feel confident pulling them off the shelves now. I used some stickers and chalk markers (not…

Pros
  • Creates a neat, uniform look in any setting
Cons
  • The bins have no emotional benefits

Big and durable good for me

These are so spacious and fit perfectly in the cubbies in my classroom! I am able to fit many workbooks, notebooks, and pencil pouches inside.

Pros
  • Comes in assorted colors for easy color-coding
Cons
  • The bins are hard to organize

Great bins on my review.

Large and durable. Do tip over with too many books but very stable when hooked with another book bin. I loved them enough to order more. Didn’t care for the small pocket they come with but the remove easily and cleanly.

Pros
  • Perfect color and sturdy
Cons
  • The bins are not fire-resistant

Sturdy, but tippy!: my feedback

I bought these for my classroom. They have held up great this year (not a full year because of COVID, just 3.5 months. The biggest annoyance is that they tip over sooooo easily! My kids keep a pencil box, a folder and a spiral notebook in there, but they are always falling off the desks. I’ve seen them too over when a kid isn’t even at their desk, lol.

Pros
  • Fits well into small spaces and bookshelves
Cons
  • The bins have no learning benefits

Not the color in the picture

I am trying to color coordinate my classroom this year and unfortunately I didn't check the color of these before leaving town for a month so I missed the return window. I received darker green bins and will try to resell these to another teacher.

Pros
  • ‎Storex
Cons
  • The bins are not attractive to look at

Nice book bins! good for me

These are very nice, sturdy book bins. I have a lot of books in them and so far (after about 2 months of use) they are still in perfect condition.

Pros
  • Can be used to separate materials by subject or reading level
Cons
  • The bins have no mental benefits

Fit nicely together!

These bins sit nicely next to each other because of a little overlapping ledge! Look great on the book shelf and that overlap saves space!

Pros
  • Provides a visual reminder of what books need to be returned
Cons
  • The bins have no philosophical benefits

Perfect for Classroom

Larger than anticipated. That's my feedback. Perfect for storing books in the classroom. I loved them so much that I bought 3!

Pros
  • Office & School Supplies
Cons
  • The bins attract dirt

6 bins, only five different colors

Bins came in great condidtion, but when I bought the set of 6 I assumed they would be 6 different colors like the picture shows, however I got 6 bins but only five different colors. Not a big deal, would have liked for them to all be different so they could be easily distinguished for my reading groups, but again, it's a small thing. They are otherwise a great product for a great price.

Pros
  • Stackable design saves space on shelves or in closets
Cons
  • The bins are hard to store

Won't ever buy again

These buckets broke way too easily in my kindergarten classroom. I thought it was a bad batch, but the replacement buckets broke and cracked just as easily. The buckets I had used in previous years last 3 years.

Pros
  • Love the trays. Love that they attach to one another. Very sturdy and thick.
Cons
  • The bins are not long-lasting

Great size, good quality, but no label holders included

I like the bins a lot. The size is good and they seem fairly durable. I like that they link together. I purchased two sets of 6 for a total of 12. I didn’t get any label holders in either set though. I was disappointed by this and will have to find my own now.

Pros
  • Holds letter sized paper, folders and books upright
Cons
  • The bins have poor color quality

Inaccurate description

Good sturdy bins, but disappointed that there were no "label holders" as the description said. I am temporarily using sticky notes to ID the category of each bin until I can buy repositionable labels.

Pros
  • ‎8.5 x 11
Cons
  • The bins are not user-friendly

SCHOOL PURCHASE - my new review

I order Walmart for a public school district. This must be okay to recommend b/c I didn't hear any complaints (and believe me I would have.)

Pros
  • Good purchase
Cons
  • The bins are expensive

Bright colors, serve purpose to organize

We really like the assorted colors, bright and vibrant. The only con is that they aren’t as sturdy as I thought they’d be for holding workbooks, etc for my 1st grader (all remote school).

Pros
  • Provides ample space to store a variety of materials
Cons
  • The bins have no physical benefits

No more misplaced papers/books

These came in quicker than I expected. Exactly what I needed to help my kid stay organized with distance learning. I miscalculated the size - I intended them to fit in a rolling cart, but I made it work.

Pros
  • Provides an affordable solution for classroom organization
Cons
  • The bins have no motivational benefits

So great! I am a teacher

So great! I am a teacher, but I bought these for home to organize my (many) picture books for my son by month/season/author. We take out only those tubs for the current month, and then we get a new set every month. Books correlate to our weather, season, holidays, etc. They stay organized, and we don't get bored reading the same books all of the time.

Pros
  • ‎Assorted
Cons
  • The bins attract dust
