This small 18-drawer parts cabinet is amazing! Even when the (empty) parts cabinet is turned face-down, the drawers stay in the cabinet, closed! The perfect application is on a vehicle, where the bumps and motion of the vehicle would cause an ordinary small parts cabinet to dump its contents. My application is in a camper, where everything goes through a magnitude 7.0 earthquake on every trip!

Perfect organizer to help clear the clutter off your work bench and allow you to actually find what you need before you go out and buy again. Well constructed with actual screws and adhesive giving it a good solid feel. The plastic case will take a slight impact with out cracking and the trays are very flexible. The trays come in two sizes and both have a anti-spill tab on the bottom so that if you tilt the case forward all the trays do not come flying out. Because of the flexibility of the trays some are easier to move past the anit-spill notch than other. A very small Inconvenience in my opinion vs sorting hundreds of small parts from one large pile. The larger trays will hold one std. 1 lb. box of 2 1/2" sheet rock screws with no issue. The smaller ones will hold 1/2 as much. Mounting bracket holes already present and each tray has a snap of cover so you can put the tray I.D. tag paper on the tray. Great product, well made, recommended.

This is a great compact organizer with decently sized drawers. The drawers are all easy to see into and have a label holder attached to the lip. The small drawers pull out easy, but the bottom 3 drawers not so much - they kept getting hung up. I had to trim a portion of the plastic nub that's along the bottom edge in order to fix the issue. They were good to go after that. Currently have mine mounted to the wall above my workbench. Installing it onto the wall was pretty easy and the unit is firmly attached. I do have one complaint about the screw holes though. The top and bottom of the organizer are the same part, which means that the bottom screw slots are upside down. Because of this, you can't simply put the bottom screws into the wall and move the organizer into place - you have to drive the bottom screws in after the whole thing is up on the wall. Minor inconvenience I guess. My two complaints are pretty trivial in the grand scheme of things. Definitely recommend this organizer.

This is a compact small parts organizer that provides 12 small (about 2 inches wide) and 6 larger (about 4 inches wide) compartments/drawers. The unit is 14 inches long x 6 wide x 8 high. Each drawer can be labeled with the included tabs. Plastic retainer allow for easy change of tab, no glue or tape needed. The drawers slide in and out easily, with a locking tab that provides some resistance to pulling the drawer completely out. Unit can be mounted from the rear with two to four mounting screws. Lightweight design can be placed just about anywhere. An economical way to organize your screw, nails, bolts, misc. small parts. Unit is constructed with plastic frame and drawers.

This is one of the best hardware organizers that I have owned. It can be sat anyplace that you need it or easily hung on the wall. The bins are good sized variations that can be used for a variety of applications. The drawers snap shut and stay closed unlike the others I have owned so that can be helpful depending on how you want to use it. This unit also comes with labels if you choose to use them.

This unit will make a nice, inexpensive addition to your garage or utility room. Noteworthy items: • At the time of my review this costs around $12.00. The price is accurate and competitive for this type of organizer. • You can use it for just about anything. It works perfect in your garage but think beyond that for a moment. Kids can use it for small toys. Equipment for hobbies. Etc. • Easy to mount on the wall. • Completely assembled when you receive it. • The ability to label the drawers is handy and appreciated. • The drawers are sized well with 6 large and 12 smaller drawers. Issues: • The drawers don’t slide very well just like most of these inexpensive units. • The drawers are very light and flexible plastic. Overall, for the price and what you are getting this is a perfectly adequate organizer. It’s mounted in my garage. It looks good and it’s doing its job. I recommend.

I would recommend the 18-Compartment Small Parts Organizer, Red, to anyone who wants a lightweight organizer. I have it partially filled and I have to hold onto it while I open the drawers. To me that's no big deal.It can be secured to a wall. I do like the deeper drawers and enclosed labels, This is a handy storage cabinet and needed edition to my storage needs.

This is a good little organizer if you have small parts you need to keep organized. I have used my to organize by screws, router bits and finishing nails. The compartments are deep and long which allow for a lot of storage. Additionally the compartments can be taken out of the organizer which is nice if you are storing screws in them in need them for a project. You also get plenty of labels with it so you can rename compartments as you change up your organizer. Pros: depth and length of compartments number of compartments compartments are removable labeling is easy Cons: compartments stick when first trying to open so i recommend you anchor to a wall plastic is not the best but will hold up as long as you don't abuse it.

As soon as my 5-yr old son saw this, he claimed it as his own. I had anticipated putting all my loose screws, nuts and bolts in it but now it has become a holder of small plastic interlocking blocks. I don’t mind because he likes to sort them by color and type which makes it easier to build his creations. Anyhow, the organizer bins are easy to slide in and out and lock in place when closed. The back of the organizer has holes so that it can be mounted to the wall. The outside of the organizer is hard plastic that is screwed together. The sides have a honeycomb texture which gives it a pleasant look. The bins come in a couple of sizes and pull out as well as hold in place. However, they are easy to remove if desired to do so. However, one thing I noticed is that they take a little finesse to get out of the holder as they have a little plastic tang on the bottom that holds them in place. Be careful when opening the bins to avoid spilling the pieces all over the place. I’m sure it would work well for screws, nuts and bolts as well…

Well-made and well-designed! This is a very sturdy parts organizer with several small features that makes it stand out among competitors. First, it comes with the labels that fit into the pull handles to the bins. They’re large enough to read, depending on how much you write, but at an angle that still allows you to see what is inside of the tray. Second, they’ve designed the trays to not slide out if the organizer is tilted forward. Third, they’ve made it sturdy enough to allow it to be hung from a wall (holes are molded into the back.) The different sized bins are also very handy because we all know that not every part fits the same size tray. Highly recommended for small parts organization!

I love that there are plenty of drawers in this lightweight organizer that can be mounted on 4 screws on each of the back corners. The shell of the container is sturdy molded plastic fitted together with small screws and braced across the back corners. I feel that the overall frame will keep it's shape. However the drawers are a thinner plastic that seems flexible to the point that they may become misshapen over time. The smaller drawers pull in and out relatively easy. They have 2 very small "feet" that extend from the underside near the front of the drawer. You have to barely lift the drawer to pull it out. The drawer frame front extends down slightly, but it really doesn't prevent the drawer from falling out if you pull quickly. The wider drawers aren't as free flowing because the underside "foot" on the drawer is long enough that you have to exert more effort in raising the front of the drawer to pull it out of the slot. Then the same when you push it back in. I would much prefer all the drawers open more smoothly. The drawers are translucent plastic. But I still have to open the drawer to get a real idea what's in it. The drawer grasp is shaped to hold a label which is also provided.

Very nice small organizer. It is built well and seems very sturdy. Has a lot of drawers that are the perfect size to put your screws and nails to keep them organized. Also it comes with labels that you can use to label each drawer to know what is in each one. This really helps when you are looking for something. Overall very nice quality and should last a long time.

This containers is great for do-it-yourselvers who need to store small parts or hardware. Labels are provided and can be written on so it makes it easier to tell what's in the drawers. The back of the container has four key holes so the container can be hung on a wall or peg board. I wish that the top of the container had a handle which would make it much easier to move. The plastic seems to be a good quality and hopefully won't break easily.

I ordered this 18 compartment parts organizer online and it arrived on time, packaged very well, and was not damaged in shipping. This parts organizer is yellow on the top and bottom, with black on the sides and front. It has 18 compartments, 12 small and 6 larger. It measures roughly 15" wide, by 6" deep, by 8" high. The drawers stay in pretty well, so if you carry it around the bins shouldn't slide open, and your parts should not fly out, unless of course you are trying to shake parts out of it. Also, each bin has a place for you to put a label on the front handle. There is a little tab that you click open, then put a label, then click it back shut. That way you don't have to worry about permanently labeling your bins with a Sharpie only to end up using that bin for something else later. It comes with a sheet of about 80 - 90 labels that you can tear out and use, which is a nice little bonus. I'm not planning to mount this bin, I'm just going to sit it on my work bench, and it seems like it'll be perfect for that. And the shell of this parts organizer seems pretty durable, I shouldn't have to worry about it breaking any time soon.

The TAFCO 18-Drawer Small Parts Organizer In yellow and black is extremely flexible and practical. The cabinet features a black and yellow heavy impact resistant case which houses 12 smaller slide out trays and 6 larger slide out trays. The design features a plastic auto catch to keep trays in and the same catch acts as a secure holding point for the open trays. The unit includes a sheet of perforated tabs for identification of items within the drawers. The back has molded screw hanger tabs to attach unit to wall or other surface. Handy for hardware sorting or hobbyist parts or craft pieces. Very versatile.

      This cabinet is the perfect size for a workbench to collect all those small parts and hardware. I’m using mine to store small electronic parts like resistors and connectors. The cabinet can be hung if desired. The drawers are made such that they provide a resistance so they won’t fall out if the cabinet is tipped.
