Stacking TipsThese are great baskets for light weight items such as snacks, paper towel rolls, cleaning supplies, linen etc. They fit very nicely in my pantry.
Proper stacking of the baskets is a 2-person job and is very difficult if you try to do it alone. You will end up with 3 legs in and unable to put the last leg in without dislodging one of the other legs. However, if you have a helper that can hold the 2 back legs in place while you maneuver the 2 front legs, they go in to the holes very easy with slight adjustments.
Most of the bad reviews are complaints about the legs not lining up with the holes to allow proper stacking. To be honest, these baskets are meant to be stretched slightly to allow the legs to click into the holes so that baskets stay together and don't fall apart with daily use.

Can’t stackI purchased four of these baskets to organize my kids toys and the holes do not line up for them to stack. I’m disappointed in these. Don’t recommend if you want to stack them.

Does not stackI bought 3 of these in the mint, grey and blush colors. The colors are pretty but they are poorly made. The legs don’t match up with the holes. I would not recommend if you want to stack them.

Cheap and not worth itSupposed to be easy and stackable... can’t even get the legs to line up with the holes because they are cheap and warped plastic. Spend more money on another product instead of these

These little storage bins are great and so affordable. I didn't want to get a large dresser and for my closet so I used these and they hold a lot and work perfect. The only reason I deducted one star is because making sure the holes all align can take some massaging. I would just recommend when at the store making sure they all work stacked before taking home.

I would really have loved these if the the holes lined up with the legs! They aren’t even close to lining up and it takes forever to try to manipulate the hard plastic which doesn’t even work. They would be perfect If it wasn’t for that which is the whole point of getting them because they are supposed to be stackable.

Warped and junkyIf you need storage just pay the extra money and buy something more long term and sturdy. Ours are a little warped so they pop out really easily and are very hard to fit back together. They tip over easily. (Three high) if I lived in the same town as a container store I’d definitely get my money back

nice colorful and good price but not as sturdyI like the fact that it is colorful and very easily accessible as I used them to store my daughter's toys and books. I stacked three on top of each other but I felt it would not withstand my kid pulling on it to stand up so I tied it on the back and side just to give me some safety feel.

Great Weekly OrganizerI bought these to organize my kids clothes for the week. Every Sunday we layout their clothes and place them in the appropriate bin (Mon-Fri) in order to make the weekday mornings move smoother. It is a great way to keep everyone organized and it also gives a great visual of the week ahead.

Ok Product, Not Easy To TransferI bought these bins to house t-shirts for my registration company to dispense to guests as they check in for events. So, when I am done with an event, it would be a product improvement that the bins stack together in a compact manner to transport. I need to have 8 bins, so this is taking up a lot of room in my van when I go to events. If that flaw was fixed, these would get 5 stars from me. The bin capacity is just perfect for the products I store in them. I would also like to see more color options, but I am one that loves bright, bold colors when I organize.

Great alone but they don’t stack well.These work great for my kids bigger toys. They are supposed to stack but almost everyone is uneven. I can’t only get 2-3 legs to line up enough with each hole leaving them unsteady when stacked. If you’re looking for something to stack I wouldn’t recommend these. Great alone though!

Slightly larger than imagined but good toy sorter!We bought three of these (gray) to sort some toys in our family room. They stacked without too much heartache. I don't think they click together super securely, but our little guy isn't too rough, so I don't see that being a problem. If yours may get tackled or toppled, you might want to secure them some other way (add glue, zip ties, etc.). They aren't as nice looking as the painted wooden toy bins, but they are much cheaper and have a smaller footprint. We aren't committed to always keeping toys in this spot, so these will be easy to move around, as needed. Wish the mint color had been available in store. :)

They’re okayI bought these online and loved the look of them stacked. The colors are so nice. However, they don’t fit into each other well so if they are stacked they can just pop out easily. I bought them to use in my 2 yr old son’s playroom and if he even leans on them slightly they pop out of place. I still love their look and they are big enough to fit a good amount of his smaller toys so I’m keeping them but I will just be annoyed at having to put them back together all the time.

Worth the hassleI purchased these at my local store to help organize my 12 inch rolls of vinly and other Cricut supplies. I am pretty sure I received a set that was defective due to the fact that it was hard to align all the holes/legs without the lower basket not staying connected to the other lower baskets. With the help of one other person and a small amount of elbow grease I was finally able to get all baskets aligned and I could not be happier. The baskets are simple and yet so functional. I plan to get more tomorrow for other organization projects.

Great for storing grocery bags at bottom of pantryWe're using two of these (one large, one smaller) to store both re-usable grocery bags and paper grocery bags (which we re-use for the recycling.) You can shelve the paper bags neatly like books in the basket. Very tidy! They look sharp and keep things off the floor.

Not what they used to beQuote from the site: "The original - the one that started it all. Our most popular and affordable Basic Stack Basket is made exclusively for us to our specifications. It features more plastic than other look-alike baskets, which makes it much stronger. And, our plastic mold is specially designed to reduce plastic flashing which can cause snags if used for clothing storage."
This is simply not true anymore. I have the "original" baskets from 8-9 years ago and they are fantastic. I need more for my son's clothes, so I went to the website and was so pleased to find they appeared to still carry "the original." So I drove more than 30 miles to pick up some more. However, the quality has gone downhill. I knew when I got to the store that they just were not the same, but I bought them anyway. Side-by-side, you can see the difference. The newer ones are much thinner, with edges that snag and can cut your skin. They are warped and do not fit together easily. The part of the legs that nests into the holes of the bins below when they stack are less than half the length of what they were on the original. I envision having to re-nest them constantly as my son loads and unloads his clothing. You can also see how much thinner they are and how much less plastic is used on the newer ones (green) than the much sturdier ones of the past (black). I'm pretty disappointed that these are touted as the original when they are clearly a lesser product. They are a dollar or so less per basket, but less than half of the value.
I have always been pleased with the quality of products from The Container Store, but this one is a real miss.

Great for the shower, too!We have a long shower (which fills a former tub space) and I put a stack of three baskets at one end. It holds all the hair products, razors, shaving cream, etc., etc., for the whole family! And also provides space for hanging used washcloths, on the edge of the basket front.
Much cheaper than most shower towers, and I can replace my tower of baskets (recycling the used ones) when I wish.
Also, much more space! I don't like the baskets provided with most shower towers, because they aren't deep enough to keep tall shampoo bottles upright.

Would you consider making lids for these?
I use these stacked in my pantry. It would be incredibly helpful if you also sold a solid top that fits over the opening of the top basket, so I had a flat surface there.

At this time, there are no plans to add a lid/top as an option for Our Basic Stackable Basket.
