Pretty useless the way it's packaged

Pretty useless the way it's packaged. Very sticky and hard to get out. What I was able to plant never grew.

Thankfully, I bought this item on sale on Amazon but I still tossed it in the trash. The directions were basic, but I figured out how to put it together pretty quickly and the idea is pretty good. It is just ridiculous and can't accommodate my 60 lb. dog's poo.  Since that is what I purchased it for, it has zero use for me.

Lame. My kid saw this in the store on display in a box looking all massive and fun and impressive so I jumped on Amazon's lightening deal.  The box just came and inside is a clear plastic bag containing a bunch of jumbled brown plastic pieces.  I guess I need to add assembling this to my "to do" list.  It's not going to be very cool to open on Christmas. I guess I'll just stick it in a gift bag.  It'd be hard to give this as a gift with no box - looks like you're giving a used toy.  I know it's a "deal" but I definitely expected more for the $$$. Not cool, Amazon.

First things first, the packaging for this is not good enough to hold up to being shipped. There's no protection inside the box for even mild bumps in transit and the box arrived slightly dented which chipped a corner of the organizer.

Beyond shipping damage, it looks like the drillbit for the holes was dull which cracked some of the particle board rather than making a clean exit. Apparently parts were also dented and dinged before being painted. When I assembled it, several screws stripped the pre-drilled hole before even driving in to flush. Even if the design was good, all that suggests poor quality control at manufacturing.

In a horizontal position there is no support for the top other than the poor screws mentioned above. If the screw strips, the top will be loose. There's nearly no side to side stability, again because it depends entirely on ill fitting screws.

I'll use it for a while to store lightweight clothes, but I wouldn't count on surviving being moved or even holding up to books or photo albums. This gives all the impression of a disposable product.

If anyone from closetmaid qc is curious about the factory defects, the label indicates it was manufactured in Mexico 2/17/15, #57, with the barcode 10075381015759.

Box doesn't close properly. The latch is permanently dented inwards, making it difficult to put in the clamp again. As seen in picture the metal guide rods snap into place on the cover, but it's an extremely tight fit and will take some effort to remove. Honestly, the case itself is pretty useless. I keep everything in a shoebox now.

I would have given this a zero star if I could. The package arrived on time, yet the package was open and the item I bought was not in the package.  Now, it does not look to be  forcibly opened. What it looks like is that is was poorly sealed in the first place, which in turn allowed my item to either be removed, or fall out on its own. Not overly happy. While it was not a lot of money, it is still the holidays and I could have bought the same thing elsewhere.

Very cheap packaging. It's not exactly a piece of crap, but it was a very underwhelming when I got my hands on it.

as most of the other reviews have already stated, this item is pretty much useless.  there are no instructions for how to use it, so i assumed i would just open the valve and it would inflate.  i opened the valve and waited... and waited... and waited...  it did almost nothing.  the pictures on the box show a product that clearly works differently than what is inside the box.  i'm going to return this lousy product.

Received just the wrap without the brackets making it useless. How hard is it to make sure all 2 parts are there?

The 9 yo I bought this for doesn't use most of the stuff because it's pretty useless stuff:

-"Charging dock" just holds the DSi, but you have to use a wall charger (not included)
-Screen protectors are very cheap and are quickly used, scratched, and disposed of
-Headphones are very cheaply made and old by now, so don't expect them to work
-tote bag is made of flimsy, throwaway material
-case barely fits the DSi
-wrist strap is too bulky for a kid; he tried it and said it was just in the way
-screen cleaners - he thought they were tags and accidentally threw them away

The only thing he actually uses are the styluses and the cases, which can be purchased for a fraction.

The packaging is HUGE -- it's a little over a foot, in a transparent blister pack. Exciting to look at, but doesn't deliver.

The instructions are unintelligible; the diagrams to not accurately reflect the product itself. Some of the plastic parts are defective and assembly is not possible. It is useless as received.

Item was received like others, with just shipping labels on the product packaging. I'd understand if this was done to a regular release product that is aimed at kids who throw away packaging, but this is one of the rare occasions that a toy product was produced (in very limited numbers and at a high price) just for the adult collectors. Which means on this occasion, the packaging (that is rather fancy for a toy) is part of the product itself.  This is the first time in hundreds of items I've bought from Amazon that this has happened, so why would the shipping warehouse suddenly decide to do it on the one item that should have had it's packaging most protected?  It just doesn't make sense.
Now I have to post it all the way back from Australia at significant expense (due to its weight), or, buy a new one and sell this one at a loss. Either way, I'm paying more in the end for this item.

This was so disappointing in every way. First, the Amazon packaging was just fine, but when I opened it, to get to the box that the product was packaged in, I saw that it was really poorly packaged. Upon opening that package, I saw that the bag that the anchor was in was covered in mildew. The anchor seemed fine and so did the yoga mat (which is shrink-wrapped in plastic) so I decided to give it a try anyway to see if it would be worth exchanging. GLAD I DID! First, the anchor was fine. Very similar to my friend's anchor, only the lead was shorter- which was okay since she rolls a lot of hers up anyway because it's too long. The mat was completely useless. It was no better than a yoga mat 10 years ago that you could get at the place that rhymes with BallCart. First of all- the description claims: "Mat attaches with suction mounts for a fit that stays in place, experience a calming workout without worrying about slipping" Nope- no suction mounts included. Instead it was just a board-shaped mat- nothing to secure it to the board. Then- it's slippery once it gets wet. Why on Earth would you want a SUP yoga that gets slippery?! The grips on my friend's board were far better for this purpose. At one point, I practiced a tri-pod headstand and the top of my head flattened the mat down and it wouldn't spring back. Not at all worth the money at all. I've opted instead for the best selling anchor on here- which is around $30. I wouldn't pay $30 for this mat. I wouldn't even use this mat if it were free. NOT WORTH IT.

Looks like it would work great if they actually put some effort into the shipping. The metal is very flimsy and the package that it arrived in have very little protection, therefore, the main body was all dented up. The lid won't fit on top of it, and trying to reshape the body hasn't gone well. Keep in mind this doesn't ship from Amazon, it ships directly from the manufacturer. I suggest they invest some money and time into their packaging. I highly recommend no one purchase this product until they do.

Not sure how it works, because it arrived broken and unusable.

first, packaging was TERRIBLE. i know it's a large item, but it was put in two boxes (side to side) and taped with clear packaging tape. just for that they should get 2 stars. a kid would be able to package it better. just terrible.

- the edges always seem to have more paint left over than the middle. not sure if it's my roller or the design
- why is there a trough at the top? what's it for? maybe the brush, but i don't use it.
- holds a lot, easy to apply paint on the roller
- no liner available (that i know of), so it's a pain to clean up (see tip below)

one tip - leave more than a THIN film of paint when you are done, so that when it dries out, you can just peel it off in one swoop. if you try to get every last bit of paint, it's almost impossible to clean the next day (without water or solvents of course). when you don't see the green plastic and it dries out, it will be a piece of cake to take the latex paint off.

i'd buy it again.

I like the packaging, but the product is not good
