Akro-Mils 39120GREEN 39120 Industrial Plastic Storage Tote with Hinged Attached Lid, (21-Inch L by 15-Inch W by 12-Inch H), Green, (6-Pack)

This is the only thing I buy for storage at home anymore. Drop one of those cheap tubs from the store from waist high, even with nothing in it, and the brittle plastic breaks apart, and you've got a useless tub. Not so with these guys. They're tough, durable, and convenient. I built a shelving system in my garage around these bins, and now have room to store a whole bunch of them. I use the colors to categorize contents. Gray is general storage, red is emergency supplies, green will become holiday decoration this year. Not sure what I'll use blue for yet.The only thing I wish was different was the ability to mix and match colors in a single order. I understand that this isn't geared toward the home user though, and commercial or industrial buyers aren't going to need one or two, so I buy them 6 at a time, and inevitably find uses for them later. In fact, I really like having at least a few empty ones on hand, so I always have one when I need it.You get what you pay for. These are awesome bins and absolutely worth the investment.

The bins themselves are strong, heavy duty, and well designed. I use them almost exclusively in my home projects and storage needs. This is the first time I have ever had any problems with them, but it really is all down to rough shipping and handling by UPS, coupled with somewhat loose packing protocols.The company needs to review their packing practices and rethink how they package and ship their product. In my observation, shipping the bins stacked inside each other with lids open [except for the top unit] contributes to damage risk when coupled with very rough handling by UPS. In my last order, 3 of 6 bins had pretty severely damaged lids, all of them being those with lids open during shipping. In addition, the units are shipped in a pretty loose box with no packaging materials to keep them from rattling around inside or cushion them when dropped or banged around during shipping. This seems to me to be a simple precaution that needs to be taken.Couple this with UPS handlers/drivers who literally toss or drop these boxes and damage is almost a certainty. I have personally observed and *heard* these boxes being tossed or dropped onto my concrete drive outside my door, after which the driver runs back to their van.Other than the above issues, I enthusiastically recommend this product and the company that makes [and distributes] it. Customer Service was kind, polite, and immediate in responding to my complaints. Communication was clear, prompt, and considerate. I received replacement items *very* quickly.I am deeply appreciative of these qualities, which are sometimes sorely absent in today's world.

The tote is great, I have a couple of dozen; they are very well designed and made. The description is wrong though, this is single tote, NOT 6.Amazon does this ALL OF THE TIME! At least half of the commercial/industrial multi-packs are actually single items. They really need to fix this problem … it’s a huge waste of my time and money to deal with the hassle of handling a return and then re-ordering from another vendor.

I bought 6 of the grey totes to organize some of the clutter in the garage and they seem sturdy enough for most of the items I want to store. I like the moderate size because they're easy for me to manage and carry. These totes aren't cheap but they are built much better than the hinged lid totes found at my local big box stores.My one complaint has to do with pricing. I bought my case of grey totes in mid-August 2016 for a project that ended up being put on hold. I paid $133.98 + 9.04 tax and today when I looked them up thinking I might buy more I was surprised to see that the price is substantially lower now - $115.30. Great if I decide to buy more today but still can't help feeling like I got ripped off on my original purchase. I watched these for a few weeks before I made my August purchase and they held steady at $133.98. Now I'm wishing I'd held off on buying since my garage cleaning/sorting project was delayed and I plan to begin this coming weekend.On a more positive note, I can save even more if I decide to buy additional totes and choose red or green (they were either the same price or even more expensive than the grey back in August) since they are now down to $80.07!

I ordered 6 of the blue and 6 of the gray as part of a Woot deal through Amazon. Unfortunately the bottom blue in the stack of 6 had a chunk of the bottom shattered out of it. The rest look good, and I am impressed with the quality. Unfortunately it seems I cannot get ONE replacement so I'd have to send all 6 back for a credit, then pay a lot more to reorder. At this point I'd rather just keep the 5 good bins for the price, since they are still very nice.POST MOVE UPDATE:These held up incredibly well to moving, even when heavily loaded and stacked up to 5 high in the truck. Everything in them was in perfect condition with just a thin layer of bubblewrap used. Very, very pleased with them. I had even ordered 3 or the taller model for my collectable photography books and they were great.

The product by itself is quality. Seems to be a fair value for the price and I would buy again. The problem comes with the documentation. I feel this is critical and needs to be accurate, especially for online sales. Amazon does not list the inside dimensions and the manufactures published inside dimensions are not accurate. If one is wanting to purchase a storage container, correct inside dimensions are rather important. In my case, I was needing 11 3/4" in interior height for storage and transportation of industry standard packaging that consumers would commonly have. The manufactures documentation for this container says it has 12" of inside height. The reality of it is there is only 11 1/2" of inside height if you're expecting to close the lid.These will not work for my intended use and returns, though free, are of a great inconvenience as there is not a drop off location near my work or residence.
