Tabs inside were broken, but this could slow down the dog from eating a poison block. Better than a cardboard box I guess.

I should have kept the cardboard box inside the canvas case.  Balls don't stack well in the case without it.  Lots of fun game though.

While this box is nice-looking, the cardboard is not as thick as you'd think. As with everything made these days, the manufacturer uses the bare-minimum grade cardboard to still be able to call it "cardboard." At what point is the material really "thick paper"? If the cardboard were much thinner, the box would collapse. If you're looking for durability, don't get this product line--I don't think these boxes can get knocked around much. Heaven forbid, the box gets wet--hasta la vista, boxy. A plastic--a durable plastic--would have been a better material choice. If you're looking for a showy box, which will hold light items, and which is not get moved much, it's an okay box. I feel the boxes of this product line are worth half of what they cost. The box is expensive for an "somewhat showy average" box. I may start "crafting" my own boxes.

thicker plastic with hinged lid. feel like the hinge may not be the strongest thing tho, and the lid will probably get broke by younger kids if they use it. the size is about what i expected, not that big. but big enough to hold crayons as in the pic, or some legos or other small things. not sure i would be that happy with it if i had paid full price..but i received this at a discount in exchange for a review. i think theres probably better/cheaper options out there for "kids storage"--this would be better used for adult storage...maybe to hold qtips, cotton balls, jewelry or something like that...

I wasn't expecting anything but a cardboard sorter, so not disappointed in that. However, trying to figure out how to put the darned thing together was a real PITA. I can't believe I needed a YouTube to figure it out. The instructions for putting it together that are printed on the product are those "universal" pictures (no words), which I generally find difficult to understand.  I'd be OK with the product (even with the assembly challenges) but the top and bottom pieces are creased, for easier shipping I guess, which makes the completed project less sturdy. It'll serve its purpose (to hold colored paper), but it's not very impressive.

For MRE style stuff in a box, this is not half bad.

I am not alone in thinking that the display box is a complete waste of time.  I was expecting something more sturdy then cardboard, and maybe with a metal clasp/lock.  Is that too much to ask?  The books are shrink wrapped, and the whole package came in a fairly good protective shipping box.  The display box was nothing more then a dissappointment though.

Well constructed and looks good, but seems pricey for essentially cardboard.  I've been looking for a purple inbox for my desk for quite some time, so it works fine.

It doesn't hold as much as I would like, but I like that the storage looks like fun versus just a plastic case. I bought this to hold all of our legos but it was not quite big enough. It does look good though in the play room. If you are just looking to hold a few sets and want it to look better than a cardboard box than by all means purchase this product.

Only complaint - CHEAP-ASS BOX!  The tin case wud of been way better, then the cardboard holder. I'll have to find another pencil holder, the one provided won't last too long.

the cardboard was thick and supportive, except when I kind of knew I was overloading the bar length-wise.  I knew I was trying to squeeze in too many hangers, and the heavy metal bar started crushing one side of the box.  maybe I needed more of these or maybe I needed bigger ones or maybe I should have less clothes.
we set aside one box and used it as a temporary closet.  due to timing issues, we had to live in temporary housing that was very affordable and clean, but less than ideal.  since we needed work clothes during this time, a few pieces were hung in the box during our stay, as a closet-type space.  the lower part of the box kept dust and pet fur off the clothes, because when assembled the bottom part is entirely enclosed - which would seem 'cleaner' than a regular closet where the door/s open the entire height of the space.
we are done with the boxes and 'temporary closets' for now, but because of their heft and quality, we are saving the metal bars for possible future use.  not sure what exactly, but it seemed like a waste to just throw them in the recycling bin.
we are also saving some of the clean wardrobe box cardboard, possibly the makings of an excellent backyard fort.

It's a fun activity, but without a doubt, needs to include the cardboard box, or else it will never look quite as nice as the picture.

Knowing the item is basically thick paper, I don't know why they even attempted to ship this item to me in the condition the box was in.

People are describing this item as cardboard, but its more like the thickness of card stock folded once.

Damaged corners and I'm still going to try to make it work I guess. I would not recommend

I wanted something better than the cardboard box Google sells. I used the Google box and it works well.
I wanted something sturdy and more permanent than the box. I thought this was it. I was wrong. It looks good on the outside but too many moving parts inside that will not adjust properly. inside parts look poorly made. I think the best thing about it are the straps. Returning.
back to cardboard.

I bought this used off Amazon Deals (inner packaging was sealed), and it was not the same specs. I got four smaller 16x10x10 boxes, and some other sizes, and different tape labels. The tape gun is cheap and the tape likes to stick to it/jam it, and it's a pain to load, but don't expect much at this price for all you get. The boxes are sturdy, the tape holds them shut, and as a whole it's still a convenient way to move.

These are MUCH cheaper at Ikea, but I didn't have time to get there before I needed these. They definitely have a cardboard look, so they don't look as smooth as I was expecting, but even at the more expensive Amazon price they are still better value than what you'll find in office supply stores for $$.
