IRIS USA 20 Gallon Lockable Storage Bins with Lids, 6 Pack - Made in USA, Heavy Duty, Stackable Containers, Garage Organizing Bins Moving Tubs, Rugged Sturdy Equipment Utility Box - Black

The containers are perfectly molded with a flawless, smooth interior (I was surprised). The lids are just as nice, and they fit the containers with a precision feel. They have two locking latches that are easy to use, but lock the lids down tightly. Together, the containers feel surprisingly strong. Stacking them also has a precision feel. Over the years, I've noticed Rubber Maid products seemed better than the run-of-the-mill stuff you can find. However, these containers are a step-up, even for Rubber Maid. They are considerably better than what I expected. I only needed two, but had to buy a set of five. After having received them, now I'm sure I'll quickly find a need for the other three. (Wife's spontaneous reaction: Wow! These are really nice!)

Works well to store small parts, nails and screws in seprate container.Eorks well for a stoVery well maderage container.

These are great, exactly as described. Mine items came in clean and undamaged. I was nervous ordering based on the other reviews of damage but that was not the case. No parts were missing, not cracked and full assembled. I think the reviews for damage is more of a shipping transport issue than a manufacturer issue.

Well I originally ordered this product (6 of 20 gallon all black storage totes with lids) because they are made in the USA. I actually didn't even look at the Iris brand name or research it at all. I just placed my order.Once the big box arrived my roommate let me know and I just unboxed the bins in the living room then immediately started ripping up the cardboard box they came in. We are required to cut cardboard into foot by foot pieces just to recycle it. I did notice little black plastic triangle pieces in the box but thought maybe those were produced during manufacturing of the bins. So I had a stack of kids and a stack of totes and three loose handles and destroyed shipping box.When I went to grab a bin from the stack the handle literally came off in my hand. I then realized that the totes all have issues with their handles. The small black plastic triangle pieces were actually broken tabs that retain the lockable handles. I will add images later.I imagine the bins were manufactured and assembled like any plastic items sold. Plastic products are ejected from the mold cavity after the injection cycle and while still warm snapped together. It's just easier to do when the plastic is still warm. So the handle might have all went on to the bins as designed and shipped out in good condition. And sure the colder winter temperatures might have played a role in this issue. But every tote has at least on handle/lock mechanism that is broken off and no longer usable. So none of my six totes latch completely and three the lid just sits on top of the bin because both sides are broken. These are 20 gallon good size, they look great in all black, but as far as transporting goes. Not that good on transporting them back to Amazon because I recycled the box. And the bins with no handle pieces or one handle only make carrying them awkward. I've added one photo that doesn't show much but the two red arrows point towards an indented area, if you look close the black plastic has turned to a grey color indicating stress was there. The Blue line is just the broken edge of the plastic. I will get better images.So to clarify, a return would require me shipping these bins back to the manufacturer. I can't do that so I am stuck with them.There are a lot of factors that cause plastic products to break. During manufacturing of the molten plastic can't flow through the mould and completely fill the cavity then certain areas of any product might not be as strong as designed. The mould temperature is important in that it helps the molten plastic flow everywhere it needs to go. By looking at the bins I can see that the area that supports the handles/latching ability and mounting is the furthest point the plastic has to travel to fill the mould cavity. This might be the issue idk. I just know that returning requires shipping the item back in a box and I no longer have the box.Thank you.

Rugged, and made in the USA. At a good price as well.

I recently purchased these bins, expecting durable, heavy-duty storage solutions. However, upon receiving my order, I was extremely disappointed to find that some of the bins were completely shattered and broken into pieces—making them entirely unusable. Given that these are marketed as “rugged” and “sturdy,” this level of damage was unacceptable. I immediately reached out to IRIS USA’s customer service, providing photos of the damaged bins and requesting a resolution. Despite my efforts, I have yet to receive any response from them for some reasons. A company’s commitment to quality doesn’t end with the sale—it should extend to customer support as well, especially when their product arrives defective. If you're looking for reliable, durable storage bins, I would advise caution before purchasing these. Not only was the quality disappointing, but the lack of response from the manufacturer only made the experience worse. I had high expectations, but unfortunately, this purchase did not meet them. Would not recommend at all.

The media could not be loaded. These black storage containers are exactly what I needed to get organized. They’re sturdy enough to hold heavy items, and the handles make them super easy to carry, even when fully loaded. The best part? They stack perfectly on top of each other without wobbling, saving tons of space.Each container is generously sized, so I was able to fit everything from holiday decorations to bulky winter clothes with room to spare. Plus, the sleek black design makes them look neat and tidy in the garage or storage closet.TL;DR: Durable, easy to stack, and great for organizing large items. Highly recommend!

Well made in the USA. Bought for a container garden. Black plastic should heat the soil well.
