So much room!

I love this storage box. We are starting a non profit and collecting clothes for children. This storage box has helped with keeping the clothes neat and organized, instead of keeping them in ugly black trash bags. Plus we use them at home for storing holiday items too.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Brittle with age

No, I'm not talking about me, I'm talking about the containers. These have been a longtime go-to (we probably have 15-20 of them), but I'm realizing what I thought was 1 damaged container is now multiples. Some of these have been stacked for years under medium loads, and as I've moved a few of them the latches have pulled away and pieces of the actual container have shattered. Brittle is how I'd describe it.

I would give it 5 stars if sterlite would PLEASE SELL REPLACEMENT LIDS!!!!!
Response from sterilite.comBy Marketing, February 10, 2025
Hi there! Thank you for your feedback on the 70 Qt. Ultra™ Latch Box. Our product mix is very diverse to meet the many different storage needs of our Consumers. Many of our products last for a long time and the lids and colors change thus making it very difficult to maintain a stock that would fit all items for our Consumers. Retailers do not have space to sell and stock the lids separately either. We plan our production for items with the number of lids needed to fit the number of bottoms. Even if we were to pull a lid from production it is not designed to travel through the mail or UPS. Our products are nested and packaged to withstand the rigors of shipping as a full carton. Please contact us directly at Consumer-Team@sterilite.com for further assistance.

NEED REPLACEMENT LIDS
on September 27, 2025
Posted by: jdkoxoiejsljfjisz
I need replacement lids. Please don't any longer take advantage of consumers by forcing them to buy a new container to get a lid. This is wasteful and wrong. We should be able to purchase replacement lids. I agree with others that I would give this 5 stars if the lids would hold up. Because the lids do not hold up like they do on your other styles of tubs, I believe you should offer replacements. Thank you.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very weak lid and latch
on July 3, 2023

My lid and latch also cracked and broke into smaller pieces. I tried duck taping them, but they are kept deteriorating. I was also hoping to find a stronger lid but not sure how that works.The stores sell them together but I just need a stronger lid. Today, the latch also broke. Not good.

Great for storage!

I love these storage boxes and use them to store all of my holiday decorations. I have several for each holiday, but the most for all of my Christmas goodies! They hold oodles of stuff and you can see what is in each box. Makes it easy to locate that "one" item that you are looking for! They stack nicely, so they take up less room. I use many of the other sizes for many different types of storage too!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have over 80, but new lids are too weak
on June 2, 2025
Posted by: MGC10
from California
Gender:Male
The prior lids were a thicker mailable plastic that bubbled up. This allowed for more volume but also stronger boxes. The new lids are flat and more brittle. I have had so many break where as my 15 year old lids are still going strong. I have so many broken new lids and I can’t even purchase new replacements. ( I can’t find them anywhere by themselves). But really the older lid design was much more functional, stronger, crack resistant and provided more volume capacity.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great tote boxes with fragile lids
on August 29, 2025
Posted by: Jason
from Colona, IL
Gender:Male
If these boxes had better lids, I’d give them 5 stars. I have about 25 of these and at least 5 have broken lids now. The boxes themselves and the latches have had zero issues. Doesn’t seem like it’s possible to buy just the lids either. Guess the company expects you to re-buy a set each time something breaks. Sad and definitely not something I plan on buying again for my future needs.
