Great Storage!
I am in love with these storage bins! I use them in my closet to storage blankets, pillows and seasonal clothing for my daughter. It comes in a 6 pack with the kids included. It has great gribbing on the sides. The bins are clear which I think makes them even more cute and stylist for my closets. I highly recommend these. They are a great size, 4.25 gallons is no small (i thought it was). You could also use them for Christmas decor etc.

Poor quality control
The product description was correct however the shipment or quality control was a problem. 3 of the boxes were broken and damaged but due to this Coronavirus situation I just threw them out. Also it isn't a tight seal at all.

    Arrived Cracked and Broken
    These bins are the perfect size for organizing and storing baby clothes. I am disappointed however that one bin is broken and these are not sold in store or for single unit purchase. I have to buy six more to replace the one broken item.

    Perfect size and just as I expected
    So I ordered these just right after I ordered the multi-level shelf I got from Walmart as well. Their dimensions fit perfectly in the shelves. The quality of the containers are good for its price and they stack well on top of each other. I would definitely but these again if I'd be needing more. I highly recommend these. Such a good deal! Needless to say, they were delivered on time!!!

    These are sturdy and are perfect because they hold enough but not so much I can't pick them up. Use them in my craft room.

    Not as big as the photo
    This picture is very deceiving! These storage boxes are much smaller. Though the description says 17 quarts, I had no idea what that actually meant. They're about the size of 2 shoe boxes. Even so, they're okay for what I wanted. The lids aren't very tight, but I'll tape them to secure them.

    Good buy on sale
    I think these were good only to buy on sale. We are redoing our kitchen so these were a big help. Wide enough for small pots and dishes.

    Going to want more!
    I am loving these clear Mainstays 17 QT plastic storage boxes. I bought this pack of 6 storage boxes and when they arrived I started reorganizing a closet and immediately ordered more. These are perfect to use on the upper shelves in our closets. They made the area's look so much nicer. I plan to order more to use in my bathroom and hall closets.

    Incorrect size posted on Walmart image
    The size of this item is misrepresented in the posted images. Although the posted measurements are SHOWN at the BOTTOM of the tapered bin, the actual measurements are taken from the LID/TOP of the bin. A small detail, but great consideration to size was given before purchase while attempting maximize footprint on an 18 inch shelf. They were no larger than what we already had in place. The height is accurate and nice.

    see through storage
    these 17qt totes are a great addition to your closet, or your own person items you want to store in the attic, or under the bed. the dimensions for the 17qt are 14 inches long, 9 and 1/4 inches wide, and 9.75 tall. they are the perfect size to store toys in, or shoes. they are see through which is always great, because you can see what's in them without opening them. the lid locks on tight and does not pop off or fall off just carrying it, like other totes I've had in the past. you get six in the case and the plastic is pretty thick and durable. they are also stackable and when you stack them, the fit nicely into the lid of the pervious one. a real great tote, and I will definitely check out other sizes.

    Great For Closet Organizing
    I received the Mainstays 17 Quart Sweater Box Storage, Clear, 6 Pack for review. The boxes came carefully packaged, no cracks or scratches. The boxes are a great size for storage and I love transparent boxes. It is so much more convenient to be able to see what is inside a storage box. I have a large yarn collection and think this would be perfect for the smaller skeins and remnant balls. I'm also using one of them for organizing small purses and clutch bags. The boxes are designed for stacking with each other. The lids seem sturdy enough, but I wouldn't trust them with anything heavy over an extended time. I have not had this brand before, but I have had similar items and that was an issue. The lids for these boxes do not lock. They pop in place, so are not difficult to open or close. They also allow for air flow. I would not use these in a garage or storage unit due to that. They would not keep the smaller pests out. Perfect for helping maximize the space in my closet though.

    Shoe heads
    For people who collect shoes like me...these are ideal. I always wanted to buy some, but didn't know what size to order. Now I know these can hold even hight top basketball shoes...size l11 in mens and I would say up to size 13. They aren't that heavy duty but shouldn't matter since the shoes don't move and I only will open then sparingly. I have many shoes that don't have boxes so these will be put to use for sure. They can obviously can be used for anything...but for me...it's the kicks

    Great everyday storage
    These Mainstays sweater boxes are great for everyday storage. Since they are clear, it is easy to identify what's inside. They fit a lot of items and keep everything organized and neat. You can use them in the closet, crafting area or anywhere. The lids snap on and off very easily, and although they are lightweight they seem very durable.

    Great storage containers
    Storing things is a big issue in my house. My six year old has more toys and clothes than me and my husband combined. I was looking into vacuum bags, folding boxes, etc. I was exited to receive these containers. I like the fact that they are clear so you can see what exactly you have in each one, so that you do not have to go through all of them to look for something. They are perfect size to store clothes, toys, books, whatever you like. They can be easily stacked on top of each other for maximizing the storage space in your closets, basement, garage, etc. It is made out of pretty durable plastic, the lids snap tight. The containers are not flimsy at all and pretty light-weight. The size is perfect that way it is easy to carry a container filled with stuff. The container package comes with six boxes and six lids. The containers are 17 quart or 4.25 gallon. Surprisingly six containers were enough to organize my daughter's room. I was able to fit all her small toys, like legos and shopkins, numerous Barbie dolls and their accessories. And the best part is that she sees what is in each box, so she doesn't empty all of them to find that one toy she needs. I highly recommend these containers.

    Great Totes
    Wow, will these come in handy. My wife has a ton of clothing that could use organizing as she switches from summer to winter clothing. These will make a world of a difference. They are see through and stackable and can be stored up on the shelf in the closet. The totes will be a nice change from the clothes being just piled up on the shelf and help keep them from falling down when she needs something. Then lids on them feel like they will stay connected and not pop open on their own. One of our fears when we buy totes is will the lids stay on tight. These felt secure and well matched. The material feels stiff and yet a bit flexible. I have had other totes that were so rigid that they broke easy when they were hit or pushed on. These feel like they can take a bit of abuse and still function as they should. We have 6 of these totes and they do stack easy on top of each other and if these work well we may have to go pick up more to suit our storage needs. I would recommend these to anyone needing a nice storage unit that stacks well and does not take up a ton of room.
