Ok, I spent an inordinate amount of time reviewing plastic storage bins. Why? I was looking for something that wasn't huge, but also has wheels. I needed it for storing some emergency equipment and rations. I also wanted it to have wheels so that my wife can move it when she needs to. There are a number of storage bins that have wheels but a lot of them are either very large (and consequently, get very heavy very quickly) or are shockingly expensive despite the plastic they are made of. I also didn't want one with a lid that is a separate piece, I wanted one connected with hinges. I was looking for something that struck the right balance and I think this is the one.This is not a super strong rigid box. I can sit on it but the bending of the top lets me know I shouldn't. It's very lightweight when empty. I don't really abuse things so I expect it will last a long time. I purchased more expensive, rigid boxes for other purposes, I simply don't need this one to be that. Don't buy a cheap box and then write a bad review when you find out it is actually a cheap box. I wanted a cheap box.The latches seem fine, we'll see. It is not water resistant. Sure, it will keep things dry if it is in a short rain, but the top does not overhang the lower bin, they meet evenly, so water will easily seep in during a downpour. If you need a water resistant bin, this is not the one. There is a hole to place a padlock in front, but it's more to say, 'hey, don't open this' than to actually prevent it from being opened, it would be very easy to pop this apart from the back if someone was motivated. One thing I like is that the hinged lid opens completely until it touches the ground on the other side. It does not stop at 90 degrees when open. I like this because it is all too easy to snap off those lids that only open partially. A minor but good feature.Overall, my expectations were for a bin of a certain size that is relatively cheap and has wheels. Perfect.
