Akro-Mils 30120 12-Inch by 4-Inch by 4-Inch Plastic Nesting Shelf Bin Box, Red, Case of 24

These are long and narrow just like the description. They hold things well. If needed, they could hold size C batteries, gravel, or even oranges. They are a good size. The front has a spot where a label could go. I do not need to label mine because they are clear and easy to see the contents. These bins can nest when empty which is a good feature for me. The sides are thick enough to hold up well and not so thick as to add to the overall weight.

The quality of the product is not great, can I see those boxes crack and break after a while. It also doesn't come with label holder, or anything like that, so you will have to add another 1 dollar for this to put a sticker on the box. I could get better things at the $1 dollar shop I think.

I have used several thousand of this series of Akro bins over the course of 20 years with hardly any failures, even after ridiculously overloading them, ie 10-15 # per bin. I bought 24 of the sandstone, recycled, ones here for $28.00 very recently. It seems to me that recycled ones should be cheaper than the regular ones, ie typically about $1.50 each from Grainger. I had no failures out of the box as previously reported in comments and tried to rough up a few of the new (old) ones. I see no difference in quality at the moment. On reviewing my purchase, the price on Amazon has now jumped dramatically to the point where recycled ones cost more than new ones. This is absurd. I'll bet the marketing department at Akro thinks the Green market for recycled items is bloated with cash and is stupider and more out of sync than they are. Faskinating, qv.

These bins work great! The plastic is a little thinner than the usual Akro bins that I've used, but not too thin as to be worried about storage in general use. They don't feel cheap. I also like that this seems to allow them to be more compact in footprint. I'm using them with the 30101 small bin cups and these work really well also. There is a little "slop" between the bins, but it does allow for them to be easily removed.

pas très rigide mais de qualité
