54-Qt Clear Plastic Stackable Storage Bin w/ Gasket Latch Lid, 16 Pack
Product Details
Web ID: 21043565Strong, durable, amazing seal, easy to clean
I love these. I work with a lot of bugs and reptiles and use these often for them so you know they have to be 1) secure and 2) durable. They’re amazing for the bugs I keep because the seal is the best I’ve found and they’re easy to clean and modify. For reptiles I use them for quarantining new animals in my collection. I’ve never once had a “escapee”. I see some people complain about them breaking but I’ve never had them break out of the 5 years I’ve been using them and I’m frequently moving them around, cleaning them, bumping them around and opening the lids. I’ve never had a problem with them breaking or the latches breaking/malfunctioning. You’d have to have a lot of weight in these and drop them from another level directly on the corner (which is doom for almost any tote) to break these. I’ve also never had a problem with the gaskets aligning. Yes they can be removed but I’ve never had that be a complication and that’s why I like these, because I’m frequently opening and closing lids quickly and I heavily rely on the gaskets to always be lined up and not malfunction. I highly highly recommend these and have even done tutorials for other bug/reptile keepers.

Latches break easy and no replacements
I have 4 of these 54 Qt Boxes and the plastic nubs that hold the latch to the box breaks easily. Very poor design!!!

Not as durable as rubbermaid
Have had for less than a year, bought 3 to store camping equipment. I dropped an empty bin about 2 feet and the corner smashed out. Definitely not as durable as Rubbermaid but I wanted it for the seal-ability. I don’t think I’ll buy again.

Easily damaged
As much as i love the concept of a nice seal and strong latches; unfortunately the fragility of the material is disappointing. I give it a 3 out of 5 stars. That is the biggest and really my only complaint aside from the price. For how much it costs you would expect a much sturdier product.

Excellent product
I love this product. It is a perfect size to store all of the things that I keep in my garage. I must have at least 18 of them. From sweaters to baby clothes, to my fancy dishes and computer parts - they keep my things clean, dry, and ready to use. They keep my stuff easy to find and my storage areas neat. I do wish you could buy tops separately when you need to (like I do, when I lose them or step on them - sigh).

Keeps contents dry.
I live in a hurricane prone area and these with the gasket keeps the water out. They are the bomb.

Very Useful Container! Great features!
This product is great for my storage needs! 54 Q. is a great size. It's no too big so I didn't have any trouble trying to fit it in my closet for storage. I really like that both the lid and the box are clear so I can easily see the contents of the box from any side or the top of the box too. I don't have to pull the box out to see what's in it! The gaskets give it a really tight seal which is what I was looking for to store some wool sweaters to protect them from moths or moisture. Having 2 gaskets on each side makes the seal tighter all around the whole box. I love this container and would definitely get more! I received this product as part of a My-Take research study."
