love the flexibility and particle-free food (yay for baskets!)
The Good Life

9/28/12 UPDATE: I am still loving this fryer! We used it last night to do chicken tenders, French fries and tater tots, and then put the lid on it, left it on the counter, and used it again tonight to fry fish sticks for the kids. Everything is so much crunchier and tastier because of the baskets; the food never rests on the bottom. I'm upgrading it to 5 stars (from 4)!ORIGINAL REVIEW, 5/26/12:We periodically deep fry chicken tenders for dinner, but we almost never have French fries at the same time because it would take forever with our little Fry Daddy. When I saw that the Aroma 4-quart fryer with two sizes of baskets was available, I grabbed it! We just tried it tonight, and I am already looking forward to using it again.To keep this from getting too wordy, I'm going to give you the pros and cons in bullet format:Pros:~ Easy to figure out how to use (simple manual)~ Heats up quickly enough and you can set the temperature (vs. the Fry Daddy's single temperature that is never displayed)~ Has a digital temperature display with built-in timer (but...see con)~ You can cook two different items at once if they use the same temp~ It has three baskets: one full-sized one and two half-sized ones~ It has a lid to keep oil from splattering, and you can see your food through it. It releases steam so be careful!~ After it's done cooking, you rest the baskets on the clips on the edge so the oil can drain...LOVE that!!! Feel like a real fry cook! LOL.~ The BIGGEST pro: The baskets keep the food from resting on the bottom and sticking to bits and pieces of other foods. Your food will taste FRESH!Read more ›

Great fryer for the price
bezoarrn

I am in deep fried heaven. I have owned several fryers over the years, from the simple fry daddy's to Emeril's flash fryer to T Fal digital top-of-the-line models. Dollar for dollar, this fryer works way better than any other I've used, hands down. Heat retention and temp control are key to crispy, light, and non-greasy food.The oil heats to the proper temp in about 20 minutes. After food is dropped, it only takes about 2 minutes to get the temp back up. The see-though lid is notched so that the fry basket can be raised and lowered or "jiggled" around with the lid on. The well is large enough to hold 2 small baskets or the one large basket but uses only a gallon of oil. It lifts out to pour out the used oil for straining or disposing and for easy cleaning ( once cooled of course.)The controls are simple to use. There are even some pre-programmed settings but I prefer to set my own temps and times. There are only a couple of recipes included and there's nothing to speak of on the web site. I'm glad I bought the cookbook "The Best Fryer Cookbook Ever" by Phyllis Kohn on Amazon. Awesome recipes!The only thing I DO NOT like about this fryer is the stupid magnetic cord that detaches from the back if you move it in the slightest. I understand the safety aspect, especially if there are children in the house, but it drives me crazy.

Fry Hard! But has a few flaws
Rawim

This is a great large fryer.Very simple to put together.An outer case made of stainless steel with handles.A main compartment that holds the oil, I am guessing it is steel that has been enamel coated.A heating element that slides into the main compartment, this contains the heating coils, control unit that sits on top and outside of the main compartment and a power cord that attaches via magnets (A safety precaution, so you don't tip it over with cord).A lid, that just lifts up and off, have a viewing window and some vents with filters built in.Unit comes with three baskets, One large basket that takes up most of the main compartment, and two half sized baskets in case you want separate baskets for frying separate items.The unit goes together easy and once you figure out how to use it, it really does a great job, my first fryer and I am pretty happy with it.But there are some drawbacks:The power cord is probably less than 2 feet long. I know this is a safety issue, but if you don't have power outlets nearby, it can be an issue.The control panel, is not in any way intuitive and is difficult to figure out, in fact the instructions in the manual doesn't even seem to correspond exactly to how the unit operates. I am pretty sure you can figure it out, but it takes some guessing. They could have really benefited form adding a few more buttons to simplify things. They built in some preset temperature and timers for certain foods, but you have to look them up in the manual any time you want to use them.Also sometimes the control unit will just not heat to the temperature you request.Read more ›

Perfect for my use (without the hooks!)
Nanciejeanne

The item is very nice. The holder part is not too tall where things get lost inside, and not too deep that it juts out from the wall too much. Further, the corners are rounded so it makes it even less obtrusive.I did use this for a different purpose: I needed a small wall mounted container for chalk under my chalkboard-painted wall section. This worked perfectly!! I WISH they still had customer images so I could show the back of the item. (Funny that THEIR image cleverly covers every, single inch of the inside, huh?) The back isn't a flat metal piece. It is really just an open, metal frame (made up of a few thin, cylindrical metal bars.) You will see your wall when it is empty. The front decorative part ends where the back meets the The hooks are part of the framework. It is unusual that the mounting tabs (just metal tabs with a hole) are attached to the 2 end hooks. You can't see them from the top, but you can underneath. I call it "unusual" because if this is mounted higher up, you will see the screws. (They would probably be better inside with a keyhole type tab.) The bottom of the box part is metal mesh.I did try to mount mine with Command Adhesive tabs because I never like to make holes when I don't have to (and those 3M strip things work MANY times.) Unfortunately, mine fell off with these. Maybe I should have supported its weight wile the strips cured for a few hours OR used 3m hooks to hang the holder. Anyway, I did end up using black drywall screws that I already had (I don't know why they send anchors with these types of things...what the heck are you putting in it that you would need anchors? Bricks? ha ha!) you DO have to tighten the screws pretty well or the whole thing wants to rotate forward (due to the weird low placement of the mounting holes.Read more ›

I don't forget my keys as much
Harrison Murchison

and my gf no longer yells at me for leaving mail in different places. I'm a happy man now. Looks great as well.

wall key rack & storage holder
Barbara Hoehler

This holds several small items (phone, mail, wallet etc.) plus key chains on the hooks. It is nice and sturdy and has a tight metal mesh finish.

Works great
shenaye

Nice looking, functional, good quality. I'm not sure what else I can really say except I'd recommend it. Seems like a good product for a good price.

Perfect organizer
Camelot

This item is perfect for holding mail and keys. My husband has work keys that are heavy as well as sets of keys for 2 cars and house keys. I was able to use 3M hooks to hold on wall and all keys fit perfectly. I would recommend this item for anyone who wants to organize keys & mail.

Good Key Rack
Diane Wurst

I like that this has a mail slot and I love the key hooks. My only complaint is that I rent and did not want to screw holes in the wall to hang it. I ended up using a couple of 3M Command strips and it's stayed up fine with no problem.

Exactly right
D. Jenkins

This is just what I was looking for. It matches my brushed nickel trimmed kitchen and keeps clutter off the counter.

Great Key Rack
Dana M. Rabin

This key rack is just as it looks. It is good, sturdy quality. It came with hardware and was easy to hang. The hooks are plenty long, so keys do not fall off. We hung it near the front door, so we never have to look for our keys when we're heading out. I would recommend this product.

Just right!
Alan Deese

It was exactly what I wanted. There are many choices and very helpful reviews that helped me avoid problems. This adorable sewing box is so well made, all items that were supposed to be included were, the pattern received is exactly as pictured. It is much prettier than pictured, a lot of attention was paid to the material used for the trim, the handle is never in the way, and it has 4 little pads on all bottom corners. The tray is solid and not at all flimsy. For the price, it's a great buy!Linda

all in one
Shopper Pat

Likes; inexpensive, just the right size, the tray for needles and small incidentals , storage for thread (tangle free thread,) all the included accessories, handle for easy carry, compact, apropos design.Dislikes, none.I recommend this kit for anyone, it's a great starter kit. I bought this because of the Singer name, knowing they stand for quality. Singer is a name you can trust to produce great products..

Ok for regular sewing kit
A Argoudelis

Accidentally bought two of these, but no worries...going to give one to my sister. It's a handy little basket for organizing sewing things. Wish it was a little bigger, but at least I can set this in the closet and know where all my hand sewing things are.

SINGER VINTAGE SEWING BASKET
Paula Mills

Wonderful addition for any home....all the essentials needed! Thank you. I think if you need any immediate mending...this basket will do it for you!

Garbage. A lesson for Singer in Marketing
TheresaSF

There is customer satisfaction, and there is customer loyalty, and with this sewing box, Singer assured that they would get neither.Part of my New Year's Clutter Reduction Act was to consolidate my sewing supplies and notions into one official 'sewing' box, instead of the collection of bins, baskets, needles-stuck-in-swatches, etc. I thought of my mother, and her passion for sewing, and remembered the Singer brand. Foolishly, I chose them on their bygone era foundational reputation.What arrived? Garbage. The basked is poorly glued together, with an unsubstantial snap clasp I can see wearing out in the near future. They had the unmitigated gall to advertise "additional notions included!" but what's in there, you won't want to keep. A plastic 1/3 size seam ripper, plastic thimble, and "shears" I wouldn't use to cut the tag off a pillow. Singer should be ashamed, in addition to which, they've now sullied my impression of all potential future products. Should I decide to buy a sewing machine, do you think I'll now consider a Singer? Knowing what they think should pass as a quality product?My dear seller - you were great, but please find another product to offer, or get your supplier, Singer, to provide you with GOOD goods to sell.

Customer Reviews

Great Rice Cooker! (Soak brown rice first!)
Paul F

We bought this rice cooker from a store whose name rhymes with "Halmart". Thinking that we knew how to cook rice, we loaded it up and fired away, only to get a tremendous mess of starchy goop that flooded the top of the unit and flowed down the side, collecting underneath. (It stinks and the stink gets worse if you forget that it's there...) [UPDATE: You can place the rice cooker on a large Corelle dish to catch goopy overflow. It's a close size-match.)After reading reviews for other Aroma rice cookers here on Amazon, I discovered that soaking the rice fixes everything. And very fortunately, this unit comes with a delay timer. Just load the cooker with rice and water (measured, of course), press "Delay Timer" for the number of hours you'd like to delay (the number is the number of hours when the rice will be finished), and choose "white rice" or "brown rice" (brown rice was giving us the most mess). I've set the timer as little as 2 hours, and the mess is eliminated even then. I believe that more delay is better. I've set it as long as 12 hours. I don't know the maximum number of hours you can delay.CONS for this rice cooker: there's a plastic valve inside the lid that needs to be cleaned often, and the underside of the lid needs to be cleaned as well. It doesn't detach, so you'll have to scrub with a wet paper towel.I haven't tried to steam anything yet (fish, veggies).Bottom line: I recommend this product.

Beyond my wildest expectations
studioprod.

Although always learning, I'm pretty skilled in the kitchen and, with a ten-burner stove you might say I'm a bit overboard. One of the skills that's eluded me is making outstanding rice, especially as I try to cook with a wide variety of rice. About 70% of the time it came out well but there was a 30% failure rate -- usually from being distracted with other things.For the past few years, I've been interested in a rice cooker. Naturally, there are those expensive ones appealing to a certain segment of the population but, for me the technology of the rice cooker seemed simple enough. Being satisfied with another Aroma appliance, a twin-basket deep fryer, I felt emboldened to purchase their rice cooker (I also knew it comes with Amazon's iron-clad guarantee).I expect the $200+ cookers come with a nicely printed color brochure, but using this is so straghtforward that we can dispense with the glossy photos of ecstatic models. In truth, this has all the bells and whistles of the expensive ones. Most important seems to be the 'fuzzy logic' that drives the timing. It's only natural that i should be somewhat fuzzy about what Fuzzy Logic is but here's my take on it. Somehow, the machine figures out the perfect cooking time for the particular type of rice you are cooking.There is a difference between the cooking of jasmine, basmati, gold canilla and short-grain sticky rice. Evidently, the fuzzy logic chip figures this out and all I needed to do was put in the rice (pre-washed, as I always do it) and the water, close it up, turn it on and press the White Rice button. It beeps when ready and will hold the rice at an ideal heat for hours after, so there's none of the last minute rushing. Hot, perfectly cooked rice is there when you need it.Read more ›

Want some chemicals with your rice?
ZP

As far as the cheaper rice cookers go, this one is pretty much everywhere. I was happy with it for maybe 6 months, then two things happened. One's a minor nuisance, the other is the major concern that made me ditch it:1) It started burning the rice. Keep in mind, I had been using it normally for a few months and knew how to operate it....I just had to start measuring the time myself, knowing that if I didn't stop it at a certain interval, the rice would burn. So mine went bad quickly, but that doesn't mean the product itself is lousy - maybe it was a one-off case.2) The larger concern was that every time I dried it with a towel or cloth, this horrendous black chemical coating would come off. Every time. After 3 months, after six months, after a year, that black stuff was rubbing off A LOT after every single wash. Of course, if it comes off there, it comes off in the food. I asked myself if I really wanted to be slowly poisoning myself with some toxic made-in-China chemical garbage. Nope....I'll shell out the bigger bucks for the Zojirushi or whatever it's called. Look, this is a lower-end rice cooker in terms of its pricing, so maybe it's unfair to expect it to not be built this way because of economics. But even if there's a .01% chance it'll contribute to some kind of health problem for me in the future, this is not a place where I want to save money.PS (Update)> After doing A LOT of research, I found that while Zojirushi is excellent, it still carries a kind of Teflon coating. In theory, it won't be bad for you unless it reaches a certain very high temperature, but I didn't want to take my chances (e.g., it can start to flake off with the years, and there's a lot of medical research on the issues it can cause).Read more ›

Amazing
jdb1213

I have had the regular inexpensive rice cookers from wal-mart for years. They cooked rice fine, or so I thought. I wanted a rice cooker that looked attractive sitting out in the kitchen. I bought the Aroma ARC-150SB 20-Cup Digital Rice Cooker and Steamer. I expected a prettier appliance that does the same job. I was so surprised when I tasted my first bite of rice! The rice was cooked so well. It was fluffy, tender, not hard or mushy, but perfectly cooked. It cooks brown rice so well. The steamer is amazing. This appliance really steams quickly and well. It works just as well to cook rice and steam vegetables at the same time. This product really has impressed me enough to take the time to write this review. It was well worth the 30-some dollars I paid for it on Amazon.com. I checked e-bay and a bunch of other retailers and Amazon.com was by far the least expensive. And I got free shipping. It arrived with in two days of ordering. Great product, great shopping service, great price!

Beware California proposition 65 warning (toxic chemicals) on product
customer12345

When this product arrived, it had a note in the package which exactly said "The products in the package may contain chemicals known to the state of Caifornia to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproduction harm". They have not mentioned what material is that they are talking about; they do not mention this warning anywhere in the product information page and that was why I did not know about this warning until the product arrived. I was planning to keep all the fruits I buy for my baby. I shipped it back. We have to pay for the the return shipment and it was almost the same price as the product.

Too small to be useful
Isabelle Groome

This fruit basket looks like the picture, but when I received it I realized that it is a lot smaller than I was expecting, and you really can't put much fruit or anything else in it.

PERFECT for small apartment kitchen!
S. Sell

I was apprehensive when I bought this because several people said it was too small. But since I didn't want to spend fifty dollars on the next size up, I went ahead and ordered this one.I am SO glad that I did! It is the perfect size for my tiny kitchen. I normally only have three or four potatoes, a few apples, a couple of onions and a few heads of garlic, and this holds everything PERFECTLY! It is about 18" tall, and the base is about 11" across.You won't be able to fit entire bags of fruit and vegetables into this, but if you only buy produce for a few days at a time, this is the best way to keep it all up off your counter tops. I highly recommend it!

Holds more than you think!
my 2 cents

I ordered two of these. One for fruits,the other for veggies. When they arrived, I was concerned they were too small. But as I began adding the fruit/veg to them I was pleasantly surprised to see how much they actually hold! We had these items in baskets across a side counter but thanks to these, we have significantly more counter space and the area looks tidy! I shopped all our local stores trying to find something like this and didn't come close. AND you can't beat the price (this was before Amazon jacked-up their 'Super Saver Shipping' and you only needed to spend $25 for free-shipping!)!!! That's why we got two! One for fruits and one for veg!I've read a few reviews where people felt this is 'too small'. Just to give you an idea of how much they can hold...we have 3 medium potatoes, 3 medium yellow and 1 large onion, a package of grape tomatoes, 5 Roma tomatoes, 3 beef-steak tomatoes plus 3 large bulbs of garlic in one, that's 18 Veggies PLUS a package of maters! In the other, a Costco bag of large lemons (14 left), 4 medium apples and 3 oranges! That's 21 pieces of Fruit! In BOTH I could still add significantly more items with ease. So, I guess it all depends on how much fresh produce you keep on hand and one's perception of small. As non-meat eaters we consume LOTS of produce and these fit the bill perfectly for US since we market about 2-3 times a week. Hope this is helpful!PS: Saw a review that the package include a Prop 65 warning. My package did not include this. Hopefully, they made changes (imported from...you guessed it! China!). As another reviewer stated, this is everywhere...even on fabrics!!!!!

Anxious and disappointed
Mel

Loved the style of the baskets. Needed it for our fruit and vegetables which is what it was for, unfortunately anything larger than a lemon just does and did not fit in the top two baskets.

Great price!
Kimberly

When you get the basket out of the box it seems small. BUT LET ME TELL YOU, I fit a whole bag of red potatoes, four onions, and 4 bananas in this basket (comfortably). It holds much more than you think it would!

Cute
Amanda

It looks cute on my kitchen counter :) it's actually bigger then I was expecting all the reviews said it was so small so I was expecting so small. it wasn't so small it's fine size, and I buy quite a bit of produce. I give it 4 stars because it's the slightest bit tilted you can't really tell but it leans just a little bit. very cute though. it took forever to ship though, like 3 weeks before I received it

Exactly what I wanted.
Sarah

Came in good time and was in prefect condition no chips or bends you have to put it together but it only takes a few seconds it holds about 5lbs of potatoes and 3 tomatoes I use the top of it to put bananas in. I lined mine with rubber grip stuff so the tomatoes wont bruise.

Customer Reviews

Nice and Basic!
Dex

This is a very short unit and it fits under our cupboards with several inches to spare. Been using it daily for a couple weeks, now and it works fine. When I first got it, I ran some diluted white vinegar/filtered water through it and followed that with 2 or 3 cycles of just plain filtered water and the coffee tastes great! Only 2 things to mention that could be improved upon, first, they have these holes on the back of the unit to keep you from overfilling it. Nice idea for safety, but if you fill it past the holes, your countertop is going to take a bath in all the excess water as you are filling it. This didn't happen to me, as I only make 1/2 pot of coffee at a time. Secondly, this unit (like all units I have owned) accumulates condensation under the lid and if you open it to fast a lot of water will race down the back of the unit. Open it slowly, and tap it a bit and no problem.

All around excellence at bargain pricing.
Tesla

I had a Krupps and broke the pot. It would have cost me $23.00 with shipping to replace the pot. So I decided on this model of Mr. Coffee. Frankly, I just wanted a basic coffeemaker, no whistles and bells. Nothing complicated that required studying the book.Just a cheap replacement. This fit the bill.After having this Mr. Coffee for several weeks I can tell you I absolutely love it. It is a very well designed machine and the coffee tastes great too. Highly recommended. A bargain.

no frills
Julieannimal

This is a cheap coffee pot that works great. There are NO frills...just an on/off switch but the coffe is good and hot.

Great Coffee
Calamity Jane

Mr. Coffee machines have always provided me with tasty coffee at a great price. This machine is no different.PROS... It accepts the cheap generic coffee filters. Larger spout means not having to raise the lid before pouring. No drips or spills. Makes fast, delicious coffee. Pause feature. Simple to operate. One lighted on/off button. Nothing to program. No LCD screens to squint at in order to read and decipher. Larger opening in the glass pot makes for easy cleaning (dang those little four-cup brewers!)CONS... only one. The overfill holes are drilled into the largest part of the fill chamber, right where you would normally pour in the water. I flooded my counter before I realized what was happening. I now pour the water into the narrowest part of the chamber... where the drilled holes should be. Stupid design.Another reviewer encountered a cost differential between the black and white coffee maker. So did I. I opted for the cheaper white, but it shows coffee splatter. I solved this problem by using two filters instead of one. I moisten and fill the first filter with coffee grounds. I place a second filter over top of the grounds. I press the edges of the 2nd filter to the 1st to make it adhere. No coffee back-splash and coffee stain on the lid. The inside of the coffee maker stays clean.

Back to basics coffeemaker
Leo R. Therrien

Although some have complained about this product lacking an auto shut off, to me that is not a big deal. At least now I have a coffee maker that keeps the coffee hot until I decide to turn it off. I don't need some computer chip to decide for me how long to keep my coffee hot. The simplicity of the product also means there is less to go wrong. It brews a great pot of coffee. The price is very reasonable, and who knows, this basic model may possibly last longer than one of those expensive,fancy multi option models. I am very happy with this simple manual on/off switch coffeemaker.

It's Still Working
Adam Smith

I've used mine for 2 1/2 years.It's inexpensive.And it still works. And I have to add I know of no really bad features (but I am not an expert in coffeemakers).My only complaint (and it's pretty important) is the quality of the brewed coffee.This model has a "filter basket". I believe the ones that have a "cone" shape result in a stronger brew.Also, the resultant coffee does not taste hot enough.I believe that models differ in this regard, and that a hotter brew tastes better.

This is the pot!!
Christie Malone

So I'm sitting here holding my favorite coffee cup filled with freshly brewed coffee from my new pot. Yes, I've only owned it about an hour but I feel compelled to share my experience.I must admit that I read each review, both for and against this pot, before actually owning it. I was wary of the posts that said the countertops were covered with water after making a pot or that the pot was filled with grounds, etc., so I paid close attention to each complaint as I ran a full 12 cup pot of water through to test so that I could still return it if it didn't work.I put the water exactly at the 12 cup line and when it was done percolating, it was EXACTLY at the 12 cup line on the pot again. Very cool! My last pot lost a few cups in the translation which was very irritating. Not this one! I love the basket and how it is flat. I love the arm that swings over the basket when ready to brew and slides back out of place when ready to empty the grounds. I know I won't be seeing grounds escaping the filter any more! (I never did understand those cone shaped filters) I am perfectly happy with a pot that has no bells and whistles. I had a pot for years that could program the time to auto make a pot and never used it once so if you are like me, this will suit you just fine. I don't need it to auto turn off after 2 hours (a feature not on this machine) since I shut it down when the pot is done dripping. I can reheat the coffee in the microwave! Mmmm. I'm going to start buying decaf so I can drink coffee and brew all day long after the initial pot to wake me up.Thank you, Mr. Coffee!!!

perfect little wicker bike basket
MrsPJL

I purchased this basket for my beach cruiser and it looks adorable on my pink bike with white wheels. I can cycle comfortably with my water bottle and IPOD safely stowed in my new basket.

Fine for a Little Bike
Heather

It was hard to tell scale from the picture/description. This is a very cute basket for a little girls bike. We are returning it though because it looks very silly on my 10 year old's bike. We need a bigger basket :(

Cute, but arrived with chipped paint
TB

I wanted a bike basket just like this (cute, old-fashioned) for my 5 year old daughter's bike. However, upon arrival, it had chips in the paint, which makes me suspect that it wouldn't hold up very well. I'm returning it. Too bad!

Great Basket!
Nic

This basket is very cute, affordable and is of very good quality. It's the perfect size for my daughter to put her "Lovey" in her basket and ride around with him. She loves it! It fits perfectly on her new 16 inch bike. Great buy!

Nice Little basket for kids bike or 24" cruiser
Steweygatz

Great little basket suitable for a 24" cruiser or smaller. We bought the larger Sunlite white basket for a 26" cruiser and that is more suited because of its larger size. Overall good quality. The paint can rub a bit, but not a big deal. With it being wicker, I wouldnt leave it in the rain. We keep our bikes indoors. Bought dollar store silk flowers and glue gunned them to the exterior. Perfect craft for the kids and makes for a one of a kind basket. Also, in hanging this from the handle bars, it will rub on the top of the fork just below the handle bars, If you can, get a piece of sticky foam rubber to pad the back so your bike paint doesnt rub off or scratch. On the 26" cruiser we have, the larger basket fits right on top of the front reflector so it is kind of wedged ontop of it, so it doesnt rub at all. Another word of advice, people are jerks. Someone just sold my daughters basket right off the handlebars. Who steals a kids flowered basket? Really?! The straps are easily removed, so you may want to get some zip ties to fasten underneath for better security.

Looks like a garage sale item (used), but does the job OK
E. Salyers

I chose this basket over a cheaper one I found online because it had buckles instead of velcro. The basket arrived on time, packaged fine, but looks used. There are several spots where the white paint is chipped/rubbed off and the whole shape of the basket is lopsided, almost like it was under some kind of weight (like a bike lying on its side on top of it). For fifteen bucks it's not worth the hassle to return it, since it does hold water bottles and other things on the bike ride... but it looks used enough to be a dollar garage sale item, if only I had time to garage sale.

Tips right over. Won't hold anything.
Marissa Yi

There is no way the buckles keep this basket up straight on any bike. Anything you put into it falls right out because it tips over. Returned.

Great Basket for A Bike!!
Emily M. Fearon

I bought this basket for my daughter's 20" bike and it is perfect! It is just the right size for the handle bars and it holds a lot of items. It is made very well. My daughter just loves it and so do I!

Measurements not quite accurate
Kat M

This bin is fine...looks nice, etc. However, the actual measurements are more like 12 1/2 x 12 1/2...with the interior space only 12 x 12...so I was not able to use it for what I intended when I purchased it. Had the measurements been accurate, I wouldn't have bought it in the first place.

WONDERFUL STORAGE BINS!
Casey G

I SEARCHED AND SEARCHED TO FIND BINS WITH THE CORRECT DIMENSIONS AND "LOOK", TO PLACE IN TWO TALL NARROW SHELVES TO CUSTOMIZE AS STORAGE SHELVES... THESE WERE VERY AFFORDABLE, HAVE A BEAUTIFUL ORGANIC-LOOK, AND VERY STURDY. I PURCHASED A TOTAL OF FOUR, AND THEY FIT MY SHELVES PERFECTLY. BASKETS FOR THESE POPULAR SHELVES CAN BE VERY EXPENSIVE, AND THESE SERVE THE PURPOSE, PERFECTLY. I WILL USE THEM TO STORE DVD'S AND MAGAZINES, ETC. & THEY WILL REMAIN "STATIONARY". COLOR OF BINS ARE BROWN WITH RED-HUE, FIT NICELY WITH LIGHT OR DARK CHERRYWOOD FURNITURE! LOVE THEM!

Not as nice as it looks
Amazon Customer

I was very disappointed when I received these boxes. From the picture, it leads you to believe that there is a nice variation in color and that it is a solid piece. It's not. The overall color is extremly dark! It's almost a black color that is just really dark. The size is about what they say. Secondly, the product is shipped flat where it collapses down. You pop the sides out and lower the bottom to keep it in a box shape. What this does is cause a gaping between the sides that is substantial. The other thing I don't like is the quality in the banans leaf. It had jagged edges and some of woven edges were sticking out like they were to long and instead of cutting them down; they were just sort of leaking out. It just doesn't have the look or feel of a secure basket that's over $20/each. It looks very cheap and isn't well made.I purchased for of these and I plan on sending them back.

Not as pictured.
dlm41

This bin is not a natural brown as shown in the picture on-line or even on the actual packaging. It is a very dark and opaquebrown. Also the finish was already flaking off inside the package revealing the natural color of the material beneath. I would not recommend this in a home with young children as the flaking varnish-like finish could be toxic.

Fiber material brittle with flaking finish
J Crutchfield

This storage basket is smaller than stated in the Amazon description. I was not able to use it for what I intended when I purchased it. Had the measurements been accurate, I wouldn't have bought it in the first place. Also, I am not impressed with materials. There is some crumbling both the material and dark shellac finish - flakes off easily.

Impossibly Smelly
Meryl M.

These baskets, which we got as a useable vehicle in place of Easter baskets. But, on Easter, they were opened and reeked of laquer or something and have to be sent back. Very disappointing.

Not what pictured!
Jan McMullen

Color is why I bought them and when I received the baskets the color is almost black with no variation of color. These are going back . Expensive to return, but do not like and deceptive photo!

Nice bins, but a few read-first's...
piscis18

I ordered these bins to fit in some cubbies in a bookshelf I already own. I was hoping they would match some similar ones that I had bought at another popular store, but which had since been discontinued. I was psyched that another reviewer said the actual width of the bins was more like 12.5", not 13", because that was the width of the first non-Amazon bins I bought and I knew they would fit. My cubbies are 13 3/16" and I figured they might be tight, but should fit regardless. Turns out the actual width of the ones I received exceeded even 13 3/16! They were more like 13.5" wide. Also, the color of the stain is MUCH darker than what is pictured. The color is closer to black coffee or coca-cola, and didn't have the variated coloring that the picture shows -- all uniform in color. I didn't notice any flaking as some other reviewers have mentioned, but the varnish does give off a very unpleasant odor. Honestly, I think you could leave these outside for a few hours in the breeze and the problem would go away, but I'm returning these as they don't even fit what I need. To their credit, I love that they can pack flat and they do seem very sturdily made. They are also comparatively priced to other options. I'd keep them if it weren't for the size.
