It’s usually sold in a two-pack (Sterilite told us that it sells the bins to retailers in pairs), which may be more storage than many people need.

They chipped and lost latches in our drop tests, so look to our heavier-duty bins if you plan to treat them roughly.The grooves in the reinforced lids means these 19 quart stackable totes with lids can be placed on top of each other to save space, stack two of the 6.

The Brute’s molded handles also made them more comfortable to carry than the less expensive garage bins we recommend, the Home Depot HDX. But if you live in a mild climate or aren’t worried about years-long durability we recommend them for garages and basements. They fit neatly on my closet shelves, but they’re not firm enough to stack if I fill them with anything bulky or heavy.
