Been looking at storage boxes and this caught my eye.
Sadly abit far away from me but could be useful if you have a Poundstretcher near you.
This practical clear plastic storage box is perfect for toys, books, baby accessories, towels and linen, school work, magazines, toiletries, shoes, or any other household items which you need regular access to but which create clutter in the house! Keep this big 65L storage box in cupboards, bedrooms, lofts, airing cupboards or sheds for a practical, cheap, and easy way to keep everywhere spruce- because a well-kept home is a happy home.

I have these and have to admit they are the worst buy for storage boxes. The lids are so flimsy they don't actually stay clipped on, any amount of weight on top of them causes it to crack which means you can't put another box on top. The box itself is fine but the lids are terrible and after only having them for a week both my lids snapped. You would be better off investing in something more sturdy. (Not trying to put a dampener on it but wanted to warn people about the flimsy lids)

Horses for courses. If you plan to fill these with books or magazines - be ready to pick up the pieces. Attic storage? They wouldn't even go through the opening in my loft. Stuffed soft toys? Should do nicely. I'd say that if the distributed contents <10kg, they'll be a great buy. Half the price of the best discounted price I've found for a 64 litre "household name" crate. The latter you *can* fill with books - but not necessarily be able to lift..

Agree, mine now have soft toys in with a broken lid on top. About as much use as I'll get from them lol

I half-filled one with photograps (in sleeves, not folders) - one end of the box totally shattered when I then went to lift it up.
Good deal if you collect and store air samples.

sorry people. Looks like a bad product to post from the review here.
I was going to get them but too far away from me so probably saved some
money.
