• Removable cup compartments in 3 different sizes

• Unique lid design locks all compartments in place

• Built-in wide handle for easy and stable portability

• Heavy-duty latches ensure the lid will not flip open

• Comfy-grip handle

The bins are held very securely by protrusions in the lid when the container is closed. I can carry it and store it vertically without anything getting out of place and without fear of the lid popping open (it locks very nicely and securely). Only the bin's contents move within the bins, the bins stay put. The lid is very clear, so I can easily see what's in it. It seems quite tough, not fragile.

Ever since I bought one at Sears I have been looking for more to buy, until now without success. I cannot tolerate any other organizer anymore. I am delighted to see it at Amazon now, so I will buy one or two more! (I am also considering the deep version.)

Stanley 25 Compartment Organizer - Great Product  May 03, 2008 By Mark "Technology, Music and Movies"
Stanley Consumer Storage 014725M 25 Compartment Professional Organizer

The Stanley Professional Organizer is a great product. This 25 compartment model has a variety of different sized compartments, including several sizes smaller than the one included with the 8 compartment model Stanley Consumer Storage 014708R 8 Compartment Deep Professional Organizer. They are both great.

This one is a little better for storage of smaller quantities of small parts. If you need to store larger pieces or need bins for large nubmbers of similar items (such as nails) you really should get the 8 compartment model instead. That goes as well for people using this for tech part storage.

I have plumber friends that also use this to store fittings. Just about every pro or hobbiest could find a use for this. In fact, there's probably a million uses, and depending on your needs the other styles may suit you. All of these are really good so you can't miss.

Love the durable feel, much better than most flimsy organizers I have tried. The compartments are all seperate, much better than the Workforce organizer which only has flimsy tabs seperating the areas.

I hope Stanley expands to this line of organizers because they are all really good.

Definitely try this.

Enjoy!

For people who understand quality products  Dec 16, 2001 By Hedge "The Engineer"
I really appreciate this design. It locks the seperate bins in place when the top is closed. It has a clear and durable lid. The snaps on the front are very solid but may be a bit aggressive for those with less strong fingers. However releasing the snaps is done with minimum edges hurting your fingers (so you don't cringe too much when having to open it). The snap closures will definitely hold the lid shut. The handle is very strong and not sharp as are many, many plastic handles. The units interlock when stacked. You can label the handle with a decent degree of certainty that the label won't come off due to texturing. The only complaint I have, and it is a persistent one with almost all storage MFRs., is that the bins should have a radiused front walls for easy removal of smaller items.
I am a mech./plastics design engineer and for what it's worth, this is a very nice product (no i don't work for Stanley). Get 3 or 4 for that special someone. I'm stocking up as you read this :-)

perfect  Feb 18, 2008 By R. Brome
This is a really great product. When I ordered, I thought it was just one tray with movable dividers. Actually, it's a bunch of individual bins of different sizes. That means you can re-arrange them at any time without emptying them. I ordered three, and I love being able to shuffle the little bins around if I need more large-size bins in my electrical case, for example.

The thin profile, clear top, secure latches, and comfortable handle are all excellent. The variety of bin sizes is also perfect for most uses I can imagine (or least perfect for anything I've needed so far!)

I have three and will probably order more. One for screws, one for electrical, one for misc small hardware... I'm pretty sure I can organize my whole shop with these. Suddenly these kinds of small parts "cabinets" seem ridiculous: Plastic Drawer Cabinet - 27 Drawers ...who wants those tiny bins that are hard to see into and aren't portable? Now everything is "at my fingertips" instead. Highly recommended!

I have a lot of these  Mar 22, 2009 By bektek
I have a lot of these organizers for work, holding everything from heavy hardware to light plastic fittings, and several more for my kids' toys--legos, knex, and magnet sticks and balls. Stanley got a lot right with this one. I read some of the other reviews, so a couple of comments...The only time hardware and parts fall out of the top of the bins and down along the lid when you're carrying them is when you are REALLY loading the bins up with some heavy shim washers or stainless steel BBs, etc., so the weight of the hardware pushes against the lid when it is closed and in the carrying position, but it's REALLY gotta be heavy for this to happen. The other time it can happen is when a screw or something is sticking up above a bin, not letting the lid seat properly when you snap it shut. Molded on the inside of the lid are small channels in the shape of crosses that seat across the lips of multiple bins, allowing the lid to close down flush against the tops of the bins, and holding them in place when moving about. Like many other reviewers, I love the mix n' match aspect of the small yellow bins that fit these organizers, especially when you have a lot of them--you can move them from box to box, orient different sizes in different arrays, etc. If I had a gripe, it's that the organizers don't sit too stable when you set them down in the upright or "suitcase" position, which is handy when you are moving them about a lot. They kind of want to fall over to one side fairly easily, especially as they become heavier toward the handle with loading. Stanley could've molded some very inconspicuous "feet" in the bottom to solve this, but it's a minor thing, given their sturdy performance as organizers. Or just forget about standing them up altogether, my guys throw these around like luggage handlers at JFK and they stay shut, never popped open yet, and haven't cracked or chipped, even in cold weather in the van. Another minor gripe is that the same plastic nubs molded into the bottom that allow them to "nest" well and stay put as a vertical stack also make them a hassle to try to slide out, when you store them side by side by side, they grab on to each other--but once again, it's more my problem, not a problem with the unit. A little habit you might want to adopt is that you either leave the lid open, or you close AND snap it...if you close it, but don't snap it, invariably there will come the time when you pick up the organizer to happily put it away, but are startled by hundreds of screws, nuts and bolts, carefully sorted by size, material, lustre, sentimental value, cost, weight, inherent possibility, karma, scarcity, silliness...however you organize...as they hit the deck with an impressive metallic splash...2 minutes of sheer delight for everyone else in the room ("Hey, just put those anywhere!") and two hours of picking up and reorganizing for you, and you'll never get the lustres the same way you had them before. So open it or snap it shut, no in between. As far as removing the sticker, it's a zen thing--take a deep breathe, carefully peel up a corner, and S-L-O-W-L-Y start to peel it back across the diagonal. Did I mention to do this S-L-O-W-L-Y? Never had a problem with any of my hinges, and as far as the price goes, well, what's a good tool or product worth? You want an organizer that's far and away better than similar models but only want to pay 10 bucks? Well, me too. But I'll happily pay what they're asking because it works and I don't have to put up with poor-performing crap every day when I'm working. Home Depot and/or Lowe's has the large bin models, and sometimes Target has the small bin models, if you need one today. Get going.
