Perfect for storing freeze dried mealsI bought the 19 qt. size to store packages of freeze dried meals, both for backpacking and for emergency food storage. They fit perfectly! Two photos are attached. One photo shows two boxes filled. One box contains 13 dinners (2 servings each). The other box contains 15 breakfasts (7 are 2-serving sizes; 8 are 1-serving). The second photos shows 4 boxes stacked, with a tissue box to make it easier to understand the size. I will add labels so I can clearly see what's inside each.

Great tote!I ordered two totes in this size to use for storing holiday decor outside in our shed, they work amazing! We live surrounded by woods, so mice are always a concern, these totes have done their job and keep everything fresh and mouse free.

Faulty latch and foam sealThese totes are extremely expensive and the latches are of extremely poor quality. On each of the 2 totes we purchased, one latch has a defect -- it does not stay in the latch's hole, nor does it clip on correctly. You can tell by the feel of the latches that any of them will pop off or stop working.
The foam liner is too long and also defective. It was separated from the lids at arrival, and will not go back into the slot correctly as the foam is too long. No matter how you press it in, there is extra foam which creates a gap and it pops back out of the lid.
Considering the price of these totes, I am extremely disappointed in the quality and the defects. We waited so long for them we cannot immediately return them as we are in the middle of a move.

Looks good, except decals do not come offEverything seems fine with these storage bins. Size is good. Most importantly, the foam seal looks like it will do a great job sealing. But I was really bummed to find when I unpacked and cleaned them, that the product decals do not peel off well, leaving 50% of the decal - just peeling off the top paper. The adhesive is also not water-soluble. So unless I take further measures (oil soak, risk goo gone, etc), the residue will be there and get gross. While I understand just how first-world this problem is, we're talking about a fancy storage box, from a store that specializes in containers and organizers. Among the first-worldest categories ever. And I thought we were over this label thing like 10 years ago, except on the very lowest quality products.

No longer watertightI purchased two of these boxes to.keep items dry in my humid outdoor storage. After stacking the two boxes for a few months, I noticed that the lid of the one on the bottom had settled lower or warped in such a way that the latches were no longer tight. So, without the pressure of the latches on the seal around the lid, the box is no longer watertight, and the latches flop open.

Great weather tight binsI first bought them to store my seasonal clothes and then went back and got more. I love the idea that are weather tight and very durable. I use the black ones so it doesn’t look messy from outside. It is nice that they have different size options for different storage purposes. I am gradually replacing all my bins with these.

Great storage for safe keepingI love these clear weathertight totes. I've moved a lot of very old papers and photos from my mother's house to my own home, which is in a more humid climate. These are perfect for keeping everything dry and safe. I also appreciate the fact that they are clear so I can easily identify the contents in each tote.

Love These ContainersI purchased these containers and replaced all of my other plastic bins that mice, bugs and condensation were able to penetrate. So far, nothing has gotten into these! They are on the pricy side but well worth the extra dollars. After all, if something is worth saving, it's worth protecting!

Perfect Christmas Storage!I used a combination of these boxes to completely re-pack all of my Christmas onto garage shelves.
•The Weathertight File Boxes worked perfectly with The Container Store light reels, & were sturdier than the storage boxes they were originally paired with.
•The record storage boxes with coordinating plastic ornament trays were perfect for ornaments
•The other varieties of boxes were ideal for all of the other indoor/outdoor Christmas decorations & cords
Please forgive the bad pic! I finished at 1am & was too excited to wait until morning to post :)

Nice bins that do NOT stop high humidity entryMy home has limited closets so I have built some shelving in the garage as well as a separate vented outdoor storage unit (attached to the house). The garage humidity can get high but the storage unit is frequently very high - often times 80% - 98% RH.
Mold can grow above 55% RH and thrives in 70%+ RH.
Two times in the past year, I have pulled standard non-weathertight bins out of storage to discover mold on clothing, Christmas decorations, and SCUBA gear.
Then I found myself here looking at this product. Ordered a couple dozen bins. Placed a temperature & humidity sensor in a Weathertight storage bin and placed the bin in the storage unit. Placed a second sensor in the storage unit but not into the bin.
I was hopeful - during the first four days of having the Weathertight storage, the RH stayed between 57% and 68%, despite the environment being 63% to 90%. The bin was a bit higher and more volatile than desired, but that was a dramatic improvement and could probably be addressed with appropriately sized silica gel packets.
The next day, it rained and the storage unit went to 97.5% RH for the night, dropping to 72% 16 hours later. Soon after, it dropped to 64% RH.
Once the environment exceeded 90%, the "sealed" Weathertight bin RH skyrocketed from 68% to 91% over the next 16 hours.
Despite the general environment in the storage unit dropping to 64%, the Weathertight bin has been holding onto the humidity it collected. Two days above 88% RH, despite that being higher than the original level and the surrounding environment much of that time.
Day 3 - we are only down to 84%.
These bins allow moisture in and don't seem to want to let it out.
They would likely be fine for storage in a climate controlled or dry environment - but do not trust them in a high humidity environment - the one and only reason I chose these bins.

Sticker WarningOK, first of all, there is nothing wrong with these storage containers. They are well made and work.
Unfortunately, they have a major problem with their stickers. Bottom line, they will not come off, especially in the 30 qt. size. Come on. It's 2019. This is unacceptable.
Seriously, I timed myself. It takes 15 minutes to remove ONE sticker. I tried everything. First, you need to soak the sticker with VERY hot water. That helps to remove the outer layer. Then, the goo be gone has to come out, soak again, and scrub, and scrub, and scrub to get the label off.
NOT WORTH THE TROUBLE.

A Great ValueThese containers are a great product!! The price is only a portion of the value of these totes. They are the perfect size for so many things. They fit under some beds, stack nicely in closets,and for us they are perfect for storing any and everything under our motorhome.That's really a plus! Airtite and leak proof, can't get any better than that!!

Missing wheelsI bought this a earlier this a number of months ago for transporting bulky costumes. Fast forward to last weekend when I went to load it up for my first event and realized....there's no wheels. Didn't even notice when I purchased it since I carried it out of the store (vs rolling it), and at this point I can't imagine trying to return it after so long. Super disappointed because as far as size/durability/function it was exactly what I was looking for....unfortunately made non-functional by missing the key element.

Great for moving & storage!I wanted totes that I could use to pack, move, and store a large collection of vintage pottery. I looked at several other retailers before deciding that these were the best option. They worked perfectly! They are sturdy and light and the closures are secure. And they are stackable, another feature I needed as I had so many.
The customer service at The Container Store was great, too.

I love that you can see what’s in the container as well being able to move it easily because of wheels and handle. It is made of very heavy materials that won’t be cracking over time.

Can I store baby clothes in the basement in these bins?
Can I store Christmas decorations in the attic?
Asked by: newport2
Yes, but I would suggest you take precautions to prevent things like mold and mildew. I would put a moisture absorber into the container. There are two main types: disposable and reuseable. Disposable you obviously just toss and replace. Reuseable you put into your oven or dry to dry them out and reuse. Do your research to figure out which is right for you. Follow the instructions to figure how many you will need for your container and your environment. Monitor them as instructed to make sure you keep moisture levels low.

How many wheels does this have? 4 or 2?
Asked by: Phk1
The picture clearly shows TWO (2) wheels on one end and a pull handle on the opposite end to enable the owner to pull it behind them like a piece of luggage.
Stephanie and her family (husband John and kids Allie and John) are fortunate enough to have a sizable Houston basement- nearly 2000 square feet! However, the frequently used space was very unorganized and had become a dumping ground for a myriad of items. Also, Stephanie and her family suffered a terrible flood in the space recently. Because precious items were stored in the space and not in weathertight totes, she was very intent on making sure the space was organized, and precious treasures were stored and protected on higher ground.
