Makes a Good ToolboxWhen my daughter was in college I bought her a small set of tools that came in a cheap plastic box. The hinge on the box broke and I was looking for a small toolbox to store the tools in. Surprisingly I couldn't find anything suitable at hardware stores or online. This box works perfectly. The compartments are the right size and the tiers makes it easy to find things. It is also lightweight, easy to carry and takes up little space when stored. I would have preferred a different color but the tools have pink handles so it works.

UsefulThis item has definitely given me my money's worth. I bought it around five years ago, and it is still going strong with a completely different use than what I originally bought it for. It has moved with me to many different apartments, been banged into by other items on the shelves next to it, and even so the closing and latching mechanism has never faltered, and other than some superficial scratches on the top and sides (probably from the banging), it still looks the same as when I bought it.
I really appreciate the versatility, since at different times I've used it for jewelry and watch repair supplies, hair supplies, and cosmetics. I have one small suggestion that would make it even more versatile: I wish the trays were just a half inch or even a quarter inch longer from the front to the back. All of the compartments on the lower tray, and the compartment on the far right on the top tray, are almost, but not quite, long enough for the average pencil or retractible pen. I have a large stationery collection, and this tacklebox would be perfect for it, if the trays were just a tiny bit longer. As it is, if I wanted to use this for stationery supplies, most of my pens would only fit on the two long horizontal compartments on the top tray, which isn't convenient for me (then there is nowhere for scissors!).
But this makes it great for makeup, since I can use the two longer compartments for eyeliner and makeup brushes, and fill all the other sections with concealer, lipstick, primer, etc. And I realized that the 1 5/8” Amac boxes that the Container Store sells fit perfectly in the bottom section if their lids are removed. I happened to own three of those little bixes, and I now use them to keep hairpins easily accessible.
For anyone who is interested, the shorter compartments have an interior length of 5.5 inches. After a brief check with the pens I have laying around, the items that fit perfectly include Sharpies (not the retractible kinds), Pilot Hi-Tec C pens, Pilot Precise V-5 pens, and Uni-ball Signo DX (those are the ones with caps). The items that don't fit (unless you put only one or two pens in each compartment at an angle), but come frustratingly close, include Bic mechanical pencils, Uni-ball Signo UMN-155, Uniball Signo 307, Pilot G-2, and Pilot Juice up pens. So a large Sharpie collection would look adorable in this, but if you like retractible pens and pencils, I think it's better for items that aren't stationery.

Very nice for sewing kitI needed something to store my sewing stuff in. I have buttons, threads, needles, and small things here and there related to sewing. I mainly use this to fix buttons and rips in clothing, very bare basics. This is very easy to use and store. I have a ton of buttons in the bottom drawer and keep rolls of threads and needles in the top drawers. I keep this inside at the top away from my kids, and it is super easy to take out as-needed. I looked at many other such containers to store these items all in one place, but I didn't want to spend crazy time organizing buttons by color or too much time organizing things because I don't use it as often. This lets me dump all the buttons in one place and is wide enough to see all the colors and styles easily. I highly recommend it!

Okay for the priceI bought this box about 5-7 years ago. One hinge broke this past year. Then, suddenly, all the other hinges are breaking. I use it for math blocks and so it's used often. It fits the blocks PERFECTLY and for under $20, it does the job, but once the hinges start going, they all start going! The plastic hinges are not strong enough I guess

Perfect size kitI needed something to put my pottery tools in to tote to class. This fit the bill perfectly. Just the right size. Roomy enough for all my odd shaped tools with room to add a few more, too. Love it. Also a big fan of the curb side pickup!

Great quality - Terrific valueThis little hobby case is exactly what I was looking for. For my specific needs as a musician, I needed a small "toolbox-like" case with compartments that wasn't heavy. I had seen other similar plastic boxes but the quality was very cheap. The quality of the plastic is sturdy and it closes and latches very well. I love how the lid opens a complete 180 degrees and rests on the table. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a similar product.

Kid's Art BinI used this to organize my daughter's art supplies. Before they were in a large caddy, which got messy quick. This way they are tucked away and she can carry them around easily. I do wish there were more larger compartments, but it has proven to work well so far.

Great for Art SuppliesI am amazed at how much this small hobby case holds. I travel back and forth between my home and my daughter's home, and wanted something to hold supplies for my art journaling. This holds pens, brushes, acrylic paints, small watercolor and colored pencil sets as well as a small ruler, pair of scissors, erasers, and more. It was just what I wanted!

Great little organization boxI bought this box to organize my son's base 10 block set for school. I absolutely love it!! It has the perfect amount of space for all the counters and it is neatly separated for convenience. He can open the box by himself and tote it around if necessary. Also looks great!

Not long enough for our needMy daughter has a "billion" rubberbands for her new hobby (bracelet loom). We were looking to condense and organize them into an easy to carry hobby kit. Unfortunately, the loom was an inch longer than this case would carry, so we returned it.
We wound up buying a different solution at another retailer because, surprisingly, the solutions at Container Store didn't really meet the need in terms of size and use for a 7-yr-old.
It should be noted that local "craft stores" did not have a suitable solution either (even though they sell the rubber band loom and supplies).
We wound up buying a solution at a hardware store.

Great for toysI bought these to store little toys. There is enough storage and dividers to put the tiny Disney Princess figurine magiclip clothes, tiny accessories/shoes/etc. It does not have enough space for my child's dolls, but at least it has enough organized space for all the accessories and dresses.

Great For Math U See!!!I bought this after seeing another mom use it to organize her child's Math U See manipulatives. It holds all of the starter set *and* the completer set with the exception of only a few 100's blocks which I stashed in the back of a drawer. It is a sturdy box, much more solid than I expected. The clasp stays put and the handle doesn't bend when you pick it up. It fits much better on a shelf than my wooden boxes that I bought from MUS about 4 years ago and keeps everything in one spot (rather than needing 2 trays from MUS).

Perfect for sewing supplies!I bought the hobby case to organize my sewing supplies (needles, thread, scissors, etc.), as I was getting frustrated with keeping all those items in a small box all jumbled together. The case is perfect, and my supplies fit nicely in all it's little compartments, making it easy for me to find what I need.

Awesome Little boxGreat box for my Math U See manipulatives. Now I can also continue to teach my children to take care of their stuff and to be clean and tidy with their school work. They are very well build and sturdy. I almost did not purchase because of the price. Being a mother of four children 6 and under with a budget has its limits but nothing else was working in my area for storage. I think more people would purchase this if it was a little bit cheaper. Love the box.

Useful for Many ThingsI have two of these - one for small office supplies and another for sewing supplies. I only had trouble because sometimes I'd put items in that were too high, so the shelves couldn't close on one another so that the lid could close. This was mostly a problem with the bottom bin because it looks like a lot of space, but the shelves actually nest inside a bit.

Good way to corral little craft thingsI bought this for my daughter, who likes to do craft projects, and this works great for keeping all of her things together - it's easy for her to use, she thinks it's fun, and now we have less stuff laying around the house! Mission accomplished.

Perfect Fit, But a Counter-Hog When OpenedI bought this case to house my collection of (mostly) Bare Escentuals cosmetics and brushes. The case is the perfect size for the job. The space between the shelves offers enough clearance for items that are just slightly taller than the dividers, and the bottom of the case easily holds anything that doesn't fit in the shelves. The see-through shelves help me identify the contents quickly, too. When opening the case, it does not feel as sturdy as I expected (the sides fold open somewhat independently so you have to pull very even-handedly), but it's not flimsy either. The biggest drawback is that, contrary to the picture shown, the box does not have a catch for the lid -- it must be opened completely flat unless you hold the lid with your hand or prop it against something. That means that you have to have enough counter/desk/table space to accomodate twice the size of the closed case if you want to leave it open while you access what's inside. Overall, this case is just what I needed to organize a much-neglected part of my morning routine.

Great for Mineral Makeup StorageI needed an inexpensive case to store my mineral makeup. This keeps all of my powdered makeup from being shaken and getting everywhere. Any messes are easily cleaned. There's also plenty of room for my tools (brushes, eyelash curler). No digging through a makeup bag; it's all there. I open the box and have everything at my fingertips in three tiers.
