Hi there! Thank you for your feedback on the 70 Qt. Ultra™ Latch Box. Our product mix is very diverse to meet the many different storage needs of our Consumers. Many of our products last for a long time and the lids and colors change thus making it very difficult to maintain a stock that would fit all items for our Consumers. Retailers do not have space to sell and stock the lids separately either. We plan our production for items with the number of lids needed to fit the number of bottoms. Even if we were to pull a lid from production it is not designed to travel through the mail or UPS. Our products are nested and packaged to withstand the rigors of shipping as a full carton. Please contact us directly at Consumer-Team@sterilite.com for further assistance.

Brittle with age
No, I'm not talking about me, I'm talking about the containers. These have been a longtime go-to (we probably have 15-20 of them), but I'm realizing what I thought was 1 damaged container is now multiples. Some of these have been stacked for years under medium loads, and as I've moved a few of them the latches have pulled away and pieces of the actual container have shattered. Brittle is how I'd describe it.

Very weak lid and latch
My lid and latch also cracked and broke into smaller pieces. I tried duck taping them, but they are kept deteriorating. I was also hoping to find a stronger lid but not sure how that works.The stores sell them together but I just need a stronger lid. Today, the latch also broke. Not good.

Lid easily cracked, but good size
Great size box and good design. However, lid design is not good. Easily cracked. Bought four bins and two lids cracked (quickly and just with removing them - not stacking or anything). I came to this site to see if I could replace them but it appears that I need to buy a whole new box?

Lids crack easily, container is sturdy
Trying to purchase replacement lids for these containers that are practically brand new, with negative results from manufacturer Container is useless without the lid.

I've used these for more than 20 years.
When I first moved out of my parents house, more than 20 years ago, I like everyone else started with cardboard boxes and miss-matched plastic bins. I went through a few iterations of brands and bin sizes before I found this 70qt at a local store. Over the years I've gotten rid of any other storage container I have and replaced them all with these. I've purchased over 100 of these bins and they have moved across the country and to multiple houses. Both the older design with the bubble on top and the flat top design stack well and don't shift around while transporting them stacked. I went with these for all of my storage needs because I found that fully loaded with metal, or cables, etc I could still manage to get enough leverage on one to pick it up and I could stack them as high as I could reach. The tops can take about 5 more heavy bins worth of weight on top of them before they start to buckle noticeably. If I really need to stack something higher I usually put an extra lid on the bottom bin. I've never had a bin fail on its own under load, however I have had them break because they were dropped off a truck, or rolled down stairs fully loaded. I'm sure Sterilite does not recommend this, but I've also used them to stand on for various jobs, to hold up props, to barricade windows for a hurricane, and as a saw horse. I think every review should have some negatives listed so If I could change anything I'd go back to the old lids with the bubble. They weren't clear, which I really like from the new ones at some retailers, but they could take a little more weight and that extra bubble of space was often needed. As I've aged I've needed to stop carrying really heaving loads, so I've started dividing up some of my 70qt bins into the smaller 30qt and 18qt ones. I love the smaller ones just as much and they have brought much organization to my life.

Weak latches that snap off!
The storage box is quite useful but unfortunately the latches are surprisingly fragile. One would think that the latch hinges would be sturdy enough to withstand carrying the boxes or stacking them but they snap off and break instead. The worst thing is that you cannot buy the latches separately and the only alternative is to buy a new storage box since they come attached to the box and not the lid.

Great for storage!
I love these storage boxes and use them to store all of my holiday decorations. I have several for each holiday, but the most for all of my Christmas goodies! They hold oodles of stuff and you can see what is in each box. Makes it easy to locate that "one" item that you are looking for! They stack nicely, so they take up less room. I use many of the other sizes for many different types of storage too!
