Really Useful Plastic Storage Box 3 Litre Clear

Takes 104 DVDs (or CDs) in individual paper or thin cardboard cases, along with a dozen label/index cards; can take slightly more but that number allows for room to move the contents slightly to read labels or move items in/out.Well-designed. It's study and hefts well. When closed it's dust-proof or as good as. Of the 12 boxes bought so far, only one has been less than perfect in that one of its handles pops out of its housing from time to time and needs to be put back. What's good is that the handles close in as flush as poss to the ends of the box to make the footprint as economical as poss. You can also invert the lid and stand the box in it to keep the lid nearby. The lid's deep enough that it can be used for shallow storage in its own right. I've just remembered I bought more than 12, and those store things in the attic - the capacity size is good for that kind of thing - and the boxes stack neatly. The boxes aren't transparent but aren't so opaque that you can't make out roughly what the contents are. Recommended.Read on only if interested in using the Really Useful Box to store DVDs or CDs. Since 2017 I've bought 12 of these boxes to store entertainment DVDs. As a result I've saved nearly 5 feet of shelf space, simply from getting rid of the DVD cases! Yes, the cost has been the price of the boxes and the work of transferring the discs, but the initial effort saved me loads of space and had the unexpected side benefit of the charity shop selling hundreds of empty DVD cases and using them to replace the cracked or chipped cases of donated DVDs/CDs. If you don't mind losing at least some of your DVD cases and info inserts, it's worth considering if, like me, space is far more important than cost. As indexing labels I use "50 CD DVD 140mm x 135mm CARDBOARD SLEEVES MAILERS PEEL & SEAL ENVELOPES 350GSM FOR POSTAL USE - FREE DELIVERY" Amazon ref. ASIN B009P0Q6BS, because it's stiff cardboard - apply the label or write onto the envelope flap just above the height of a DVD/CD so that it'll be visible in the Really Useful Box. I put a clear self-adhesive credit-card holder on the narrow end of a box to take a written box label e.g. to easily adjust a written index "A to D" to "A to C".

So I use them for CDs and cables but recently have used them for storing my lawnmower batteries, charger and key in one place. They're very sturdy, portable and good that they're clear so you can at a glance see what's inside. Another one is used for storing Magformers away when my lad isn't playing with them.

I had a quantity of CDs in crystal cases, which took up a lot of space. I cut the display cards from the cases to size, to fit into thin flexible plastic envelopes, together with the CDs. The envelopes are sold by the hundred or more eg by Amazon. The crystal cases were discarded. The envelopes stand vertically and fit very compactly into the plastic storage box They are now very well protected from dust and damage. The filled box is light and easy to carry. Provided it is not packed too tightly, it is very easy to flip through the CD envelopes, to find a wanted CD. The envelopes also contain the playlist cards, visible through their rear surfaces. I am pleased by this useful purchase at the price of £3 per box.

Got this to store cd's in. It's an excellent item, strong and really handy for storing anything. I'll be buying others in different sizes. Definitely recommend.

These are the best - great for all my tool accessories. Stack well and you can see what’s in them. Much more square than some boxes so you get more in them.

really easy to drill into. sturdy but scratch easy. only used to house isopods in and works really well

Perfect sturdy boxes.

This box is perfect for what I need. A great size, very sturdy. Excellent.

These boxes are great. My Cd's fit perfectly in and stay dust-free.

Gutes Material, alles sehr stabil! Super!
