Tools and Hardware Reviews of Rubbermaid 220200 Wrap N'Craft 33-Inch Vertical Storage Container, ClearCustomer Review: Great idea, but could be improved. Summary: 3 Stars
When these first came out, they filled a void that made us go out and get one immediately. Although they are rather expensive, they do hold a lot of paper and some wrapping items (scissors, tape, pen, to/from cards, ribbon and bows).
They got it right:
1) Has a special flip top lid for wrapping hardware.
2) Nice quality plastic, stands up to storing in the basement - hasn't cracked or broken.
3) The lid fits tightly, keeps out any critters.
4) Holds a lot of paper and other supplies like bags and bows.
They need to rethink it:
1) The item is about a foot too short... only fits short rolls of paper.
2) The utility compartment that holds your scissors and paper should also lift open to allow easy access to the rolls. You have to remove the cover instead and it can be tough to do that and put it back on.
3) The utility compartment should be a little bit larger. It barely holds a roll of ribbon. Would also be nice to have adjustable plastic segments.
4) Needs to be a bit roomier.
5) Could use an adjustable "slot" system, say with a cross bar about half way deep to allow you to remove rolls without adjusting the entire container full. Would also allow you to have the rolls stay vertical and give space for a bag of bows without everything falling to one side.
For the money, it should include all of the above and probably come half full of paper (it's a Piece of plastic!). We also bought a Sterlite one that's a foot taller, but it doesn't have a compartment for tools. Nor does it have a crossbar... but it was much cheaper and holds almost twice the paper.
I'm giving it a 3. It's a nice design, but could be a lot better. I hope Rubbermaid reads this!
