I love these little bins. They are great for organizing my greeting cards and mailing envelopes. Lightweight and durable. A good value.

I was looking for a cheap, easy and attractive storage solution for my video games and I found it.Just so everyone is aware, right on the sticker with the UPC (easily removed from each crate) it says "Holds CD's & DVD's". After reading some of the reviews prior to placing my order, I was a bit concerned that although these little crates (seemingly made to hold "miscellaneous items") might work for my games, that they might also be too slightly odd sized to do the job. Needless to say, I was relieved to find that they were made to the perfect size to specifically hold video games and movies, therefore anyone complaining that they can't store their miscellany with these shouldn't disturb those of us who are looking for more DVD/game shelf space.I did find the dimensions in the product description to be misleading though. Here are the actual interior dimensions. 6 3/4" wide, 5 3/4" deep and 7 15/16" tall. That holds 11 video games or DVDs or 13 Blu-ray Discs comfortably. The space even holds my PC game boxes.There are two problems that I had though, with both the order and this product, and there happens to be 1 solution for both problems. First of all, the order total is just shy of qualifying for free shipping and the second problem is that the crates fit together nicely but don't "lock" together so they can be a bit tricky to get into position and stay that way. The solution I found is to order [Velcro Reusable Self-Gripping Ties, 0.5 Inches x 8 Inches, Black/Gray, 50 Ties per Pack - $3.38] which will bring your order to just over $25 (and give you a ton of extra velcro cable ties). Both items qualify for free shipping and the velcro straps can be used strategically and sparingly to lock the crates into place. If you use one or two of them on the middle, they will not show when DVD/Game cases are in the crates nor will they have any adverse effects to storing your items. Alternatively, I found that just one strap holding each of the stacked columns together does the job. Once items are in the crates, everything is held in place.

I bought these to hold some of my CD collection. it looks great and holds the Cd's nicely. They kind of snap fit together for alignment but really don't hold them together so i used black tie straps to firmly connect 4 of them together. The plastic is not brittle and is good quality!

So I bought the 12 pack and to be honest once you get to using them they can be great for a multitude of things, the slight minus of the durability is it seems that one of them the corner chipped off in shipping and is not a big deal. These are great for storage of a lot of small Items as well as have them sideways on the desk and you can use them kind of like shelving with different figurines, office supplies and more on your desk, Vanity or other areas where you may need to stack items. only other thing I can say if the items are really small though you might want to think of getting a piece of cardboard to cover the holes. it helps keep some things from being wonky inside of the crate, I also have a larger version of these that I have turned sideways and use for organizing some of my clothing Try them out, Im sure you will enjoy them!

This was exactly what I needed to fix the mess in my trailer cabinet.Durable, well made, inserting together making them fit really well together.

These small crates are much flimsier than I anticipated and I would not have purchased them had I known. I had previously purchased similarly sized crates from a national chain that sells stuff for below 5 dollars. Those were very sturdy and made of heavier plastic but of course they’re no longer available. These Sterlite crates are too lightweight to use in my shop as I had intended, but I will find other uses for them around the house.

wrong item...1695LAB86 received (newer edition????).. these are not the ones pictured... they DO NOT attach to each other...Hard to believe they are a Sterilite product; as they are so poorly designed. Very frustrating that they will not attach to each other. I will have to use'zip ties' to use them as wee shelves.
