These match all the other wire products I use in my office and make great drawer dividers.
So helpful in keeping junk draw organized. Add the price was great, too.
much cheaper than I could find in stores and does exactly what I wanted
I have quite a few drawers that need to have divided compartments in. Many of these drawers are in my kitchen. I was so excited when I saw this set, let's see how it measured up.
WHAT ARE THESE LIKE?
These dividers are a variety of sizes and lengths. They are about 1 7/8 inches high except for one which is deeper. The bottoms have a rubberized mat on them to make it so that things stay put and don't roll around as easily. They do not connect but stay separated. There are four padded legs on them which are about 1/4 inch high- so take that into consideration when planning for shallow drawers. the sides taper in and are not straight up and down- that cuts down on storage space.
HOW DID THIS WORK OUT?
I am disappointed because I wanted to use these in a large drawer that I have. The problem is that the longest one is a half inch too long so I can not use them as I wanted to. I wanted to use them from front to back as I wanted to put kitchen tools in them. Using them across the width is not helpful at all as things in the back of the drawer are too hard to get to.
WHAT NOW?
These are nice enough to use on a table top, storage compartment, drawer, shelf, or other similar uses- I will find a place to use them in. I was hoping to use them all together in the drawer as shown in the photo.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Careful measurements are needed to be sure these fit if you have a particular drawer in mind. These taper in at the bottom and are different sizes. Useful anywhere on table tops or drawers, you can find uses for them but if you want to use them as pictured, be sure of your measurements and allow for some wiggle room.
MY RATING
FOUR STARS for this set. The tapering cuts down on storage and they were too long for my drawer. The star was taken off for the tapering sides not the problem with fitting.
I know it's the trend to go to the dollar store for organization bins, but once you get these Mind Reader Storage Organizers in your hand, you'll immediately be able to tell the difference that quality makes. I am an extreme organizer. For me, everything has a place and there's a place for every thing. These storage organizers are the answer to drawers in my craft room and in my kitchen. They are SO sturdy. They have a no-slip mat at the bottom that keeps the contents from moving around. And the BEST part is the little no-skid feet on the bottom which prevents them from moving around in the drawer as well. With cheap, thin plastic organizers you put items in them, shut the drawer, and either the items move or the organizer itself moves. That's not the case with these Mind Reader organizers. I can't stress enough what a quality, study product they are. This specific set is quite large, and worked well in my craft room for scissors, rulers and miscellaneous. Make sure to read the measurements in the description, as the largest one is too large to fit in most kitchen drawers, though it would certainly fit in a bureau drawer.

The Mind Reader organizer trays are very high quality plastic material. They have a rubber pad in the bottom of the tray. There are 4 small feet on the bottom to prevent them from slipping. They are pretty sturdy but have just a little flex to them. One of the pictures in the item description shows all of the dimensions.
They're not all stackable. The largest tray is deeper than the other three. You could stack the 2 smaller trays into the largest tray. Or you could stack the two longest trays together. But in either case you're sacrificing some of the storage space. The smallest 3 trays are the same depth so if you put one inside the other then you're taking up all of the space in the bottom tray.
Here are a couple photos. I was looking for something to hold my car vac and all of its accessories and the largest tray was just the right size. The other photo is some sockets for one of my quarter inch socket sets and drivers.
These are very sturdy open-storage containers. Strong, solid, walls that are angled, very slightly, out at the top. A rolled lip makes them even more robust. The bottoms have four effective gripper pads at each corner. On the inside bottom of each container is a layer of more gripper material--color gray.
They are designed to fit in desk or kitchen drawers, for holding pens, pencils and smaller items. A 12" ruler will not fit in the bottom of the largest container. I would actually like a set of these to hold my many precision tools. My husband wants a set for his work bench.
I'm using the smallest on a shelf to contain all my dongles and flash drives. The medium-sized container holds my colored pencils nicely. The largest, I've taken outside to my bonsai and succulent work table, where it is holding numerous clippers, scissors, tweezers, picks and dowels and such.
I liked this set. I needed something narrow that I could use in a cramped location as a catchall for pens, tapes, and whatever I need to get off of the floor. This worked very well.
It is made of solid metal, and seems well crafted. And, since I am placing this on a hardwood varnished surface I was pleased to find that the bottom of the storage bins come with four small circular foam pads already glued to the bottom.
One thing I also noticed. Because the sides are made with a thin metal lattice (versus solid walls) you can actually see what is stored in there when you are looking at it head on. This is nice because it provides more visibility into the contents than you would have had otherwise, and is great for the dimly lit space I have the product. Every little bit of visibility helps!
I have no complaints... they did the job well.

They also have no-slip feet on the bottom of the organizer to stop them from sliding in the drawer itself! Genius! This set of 3 is an excellent size to organize that kitchen junk drawer, and they well in a shallow kitchen drawer, though sizable enough to hold quite a lot. Excellent, excellent quality product. I'm very pleased.
I was pleasantly surprised by these small Stackable bins. They’re great for the office, bathroom, classroom or kitchen. I like using them in the home office and the kitchen. In the kitchen. the smaller squares hold tiny things like push pins, twist ties, and smaller magnets. The long ones work with certain utensils. In the office, they are great to everything.
They are various sized, sturdy and unbreakable. I had a set of small black office bins and one cracked; these bins do not crack. They latch together. and they're washable and stack nicely when not in use. Mine are white so they stand out perfectly in my black file drawer.
8 interlocking bins that will last a long, long time.
