Parents looking for a way to tidy up or teachers needing storage units for their class can check out ClosetMaid's 8505 15 Cube Organizer White plastic model. Like many cube organizers, this ClosetMaid model stacks the storage slots to provide a neat and convenient method of small item storage. At five by three slots, the 15 cube storage organizer can hold an entire family's worth of shoes, or a classroom's supplies, or even a complete music or movie collection. At only twenty five dollars, the 8505 unit is not only extremely practical but one of the cheapest options available on the market.
Unlike higher priced cubes made of expensive wood or metal, the white plastic ClosetMaid cube is designed with the durability to withstand kids as well as minimal set up requirements. The plastic also makes the unit extremely easy to clean. Customers have found that the cube takes only the space of a few minutes to set up and be ready to be filled, without needing any tools except a screwdriver. The 8505 cube is designed with kid's shoes in mind, so that large families or classrooms can easily transfer fifteen pairs to the organizer without tracking dirt or mud.
Customers have responded positively to the 15 cube set, claiming that it works great for toddler and kids' shoe storage. Unlike other wooden models, the plastic can take a considerable beating without showing scuffs or paint scraps. There's enough room for children to store other items besides shoes, such as art supplies or bag lunches, so that a school room may need only one or two units to completely take care of all clutter.
The only major criticism of the ClosetMaid 15 unit is the size of the individual ports. Adults looking for a means of storing their own clothes or shoes have been disappointed by the smaller size of the cubes meant to cater towards kids' needs. Only smaller sized adult shoe pairs -- below a women's size ten or a men's size twelve -- can fit in the slots, so that some customers have found that only a single shoes can be put in each slot, effectively halving the product's capability. For children of nearly all ages, however, there is enough space for both shoes in each slot.
The ClosetMaid 8505 15 Cube Organizer White plastic model is one of the cheapest and most practical models of storage available for large use. It is recommended, however, that only smaller sized items be used in the slots.
