Product Information

Full details

Crafted from high-strength polypropylene, it provides a secure, lightweight, and versatile environment for your belongings, though its 9-litre capacity may prove restrictive for larger document folders or bulky equipment.

FAQs

Is the box waterproof?

The box is water-resistant against splashes and humidity, but it is not hermetically sealed or fully submersible.

Can I store the box in a freezer?

Yes, the material is rated for temperatures down to -15°C, making it suitable for cold storage environments.

What are the interior dimensions?

The interior dimensions are 335 mm x 215 mm x 140 mm.

Is the plastic BPA free?

Yes, the polypropylene material used is food-safe and free from common harmful plastics additives.

Can this hold standard A4 paper?

The interior length is 335 mm, which is slightly too small for a standard A4 sheet of paper (297 mm) if you need to lie it perfectly flat without touching the edges.

Troubleshooting

Lid does not snap on firmly

Ensure that the internal contents are not overflowing, as an overfilled box will prevent the lid from seating properly within the recessed track.

Box feels stuck to another box

If boxes become suctioned together, gently pry one edge at a time to allow air pressure to equalize before separating.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely durable and impact-resistant polypropylene build
  • Secure stacking mechanism prevents tipping
  • Food-safe material suitable for varied applications
  • Lightweight design at only 784 grams

Cons

  • Fixed 9-litre capacity limits storage of larger items
  • Translucent plastic may allow some light penetration
  • Lid latching mechanism is friction-based rather than locked

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up your Really Useful Box is straightforward; simply place your items inside and press the lid firmly onto the base until it snaps into the recessed area. To maximize the life of your storage box, follow these care guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid harsh scouring pads that might scratch the finish.
  • Weight Distribution: Always place heavier items at the bottom of the stack to ensure stability.
  • Storage: While the plastic is UV-resistant, keeping the boxes out of direct, intense sunlight for extended years will help prevent potential material embrittlement.
  • Compatibility: These boxes are specifically designed to stack with other Really Useful Box units of the same footprint for modular storage systems.
