Review 1 for Mainstays Folding Crate, Black, Set of 2

So far so good

I haven't had these long enough to say how they hold up but they seem sturdy enough. They fold flat and go together very easily when using as a crate. I got two of them for my RV overhead bunk to store things so they don't slide around.
I gave 4 stars overall since I've not had time to evaluate over time.

Since these our foldable crates you have to be sure to lock the sides in place. Do not over load the crates. We have similar crates that we have been using for over 15 years. We look forward to using these crates for many years to come.

I bought these to pack in my camper where space is at a premium. The height is just right to still allow the popup to fold into place and they keep things organized. I will definitely be buying more for home use.

Had 2 bought a couple of years ago and one of them broke. Did not have in store but decided to order. Glad I did. LOVE Walmart site to store. Keeps me from running around trying to find a product. We use them all the time. They stay in my van - we put our purchases from Walmart in them - use them when we go to the condo in th Smokies - great for carrying grocery items from the house in. Couldn't do without them.

Great value for a hard to find legal size milk crate. Only 1 small problem, if you pick up or move wrong from the top you can pinch your finger but if you grab from handles its awesome !!

I bought this folding crate to put on the back of my bike. (see bikehacks(dot)com) It's the perfect size for my briefcase. A few drill holes and zip ties and it's on my rack. When it's not in use, it collapses nicely.
I bought from WalMart because it was half the price of anywhere else.

Great reusable container

If you have never used a folding crate, I highly recommend it. They are so convenient for hauling things no matter where you are going, as once they are emptied, you just fold them flat to store and reuse them the next time you need to haul something. We go up north many weekends starting in May through Sept. and they are what I use to haul all my food, crockpots, lotions, etc. Whenever I have to go to a pot luck dinner, they work great for hauling the crock pot full of food, as I don't have to worry about anything spilling or splashing over into my trunk.

This were made very cheaply. I had to return them since one came broken. They were packed fine so I have no idea why it was broken. Would not recommend them at all. We had bought folding crates many years ago and they were so sturdy we still have them. But these were no where near the quality. I would have paid more for stronger crates. What good are they if they break so easily.On line said they were available in the store but went to 2 Walmarts and they had none.

I bought these crates to keep in the trunk of the car to stop items rolling around. I really like them, they are quite sturdy and it is great you can fold them flat when not in use. Good value for the money.

Does the job

We keep these in the trunks of our cars; this purchase was to buy more for a 2nd car. Very handy for groceries and for keeping things from sliding around when driving. 4 of them fit perfectly accross the trunk of our mid-sized sedan, leaving room behind them for other items if necessary. I don't think I'd use them to lift very heavy items, but they are sturdy enough to carry in the average load. The fact that they fold flat is a plus so we can make room to carry large items in the trunk when necessary.

I purchased these to place my groceries in because my trunk is so deep that my grocery bags would slide around and be difficult to reach. These crates work great! The collapsible feature makes it so convenient when I need to maximize my space, too.

These are fantastic for the trunk of a car or the cargo area of an SUV. They fold completely flat to be out of the way, and are extremely easy to fold into crate position when you need them.
