There are times when I just have to agree with my long-suffering wife who tells me that I am untidy person. Sadly, too, I am the worst kind of untidy. For sure, there are those who are untidy but who can always manage to find whatever it is that they are looking for. In the midst of chaos and my untidiness, I can never find – well, just about anything. The time that I have available to do something is spent in looking for the missing thingamabob without which no progress can be made.Courtesy of Leitz, however, I am fighting back and doing my best to bring order out of the chaos. I have been fortunate to have reviewed their 18L box and insert tray and this smaller offering is from the same range.It shares those lovely clean tactile lines and the smooth, shiny plastic that one picks up and has trouble parting with before running its clean curves between one’s fingers and thumb more than once. It really looks the part and would be happy and by no means out of place in any room of the house or even the garage if needs must. The range also stacks beautifully and neatly together created more order and pleasing clean lines that would satisfy instantly even the most fastidious among us. The end panels are brought out so as to form a nice comfortable lifting point and the bright interior is clean and makes for easy viewing of the contents. The label applied to the outside is clear and accurately applied and not stuck on as a messy afterthought. The whole thing exudes quality. The lid fits nicely, keeps dust out and of course forms a nice stable platform for another similar box. Without doubt one can find cheaper offerings but such things have a spectacular ugliness about them and they may be okay for things banished to the loft but really have no place in more day to day confines – unlike these boxes that would reward you with their smooth and cheerful presence.Of course, for an untidy person like me, more than one will be required as there are hundreds of uses that one could find for them and I must admit to having a long list. The smaller one, forming the purpose of this review is perfect for those smaller things that can and do go astray. I used mine to hold all my electronic bits and pieces, circuit boards, wire, soldering iron – the list goes on but in one work all the things that wander before my very eyes and will most surely the most vital thing that I will need next. Now, they can be safely ensconced within this nice box and I am doing my best to place items within that I have left out but really should be placed within. All in all, it’s early days but I feel I have a good chance of some discipline entering my life and this nice elegant and visually appealing box together with the larger 18L one I reviewed some months ago are a perfect accompaniment to this goal. Any news on my car keys? With thanks to Vine and Leitz for asking me to review.

Exactly as currently shown in the stock images above, this is a sturdy lidded storage box, from LEITZ®.This neat size can, as advertised, take A5 sheets flat (1st image below refers) but it could be used for a variety of other things other than stationery. The box easily wipes clean, in my experience, so I use it in the bathroom, where the accent colour is picked up in the wall & floor tiles.ooOoo✤ LEITZ®✤ MYBOX® SMALL WITH LID~ A5 SIZE/5L~ COLOUR: CREAMY WHITE & KINGFISHER BLUE (to my eye)~ BPA FreeooOooSupplied in a sturdy outer cardboard container, the CREAMY WHITE coloured box with KINGFISHER BLUE (inside & outside)

This is a review for the small 5l storage box in white and pink metallic from Leitz. Though I don't actually think the pink metallic is that metallic, it's more very shiny. There is a ridge in the top of the box to enable you to use an organizer / storage tray (this has to be purchased separately). I'm using it for storing craft supplies and it works well for that. The size of 32 x 13 x 19cm is a good size for craft storage or for other bits and bobs.It looks smart but although the plastic seems thick it feels like it would possibly break if dropped onto floor tiles or if your three-year old threw it across the room and it hit the wall the wrong way.Being opaque,

This box is a smart and tidy way to store your small items when there is a chance that the box will still be on-show and needs to remain presentable. The box is neatly manufactured with no sharp edges. The lid fits on in a fairly light way and not entirely secure way - in that it doesn’t snap into place, but this might be absolutely fine for most people. The shape of the box means that if you were to purchase more of them they would stack. The blue accent colouring is quite nice and helps to lift the overall appearance.In my mind, this is quite a lot of money for a straightforward plastic box with lid (that doesn’t even come with a label to affix). If you were less fussy you could just buy some large tubs of ice cream and wash them up,

I am a big fan of these Leitz storage boxes. They come in a range of sizes, and I am reviewing the A5 5 litre version, which is a lovely medium size box, great for: shoe polish and brushes; pens and pencils; thread and sewing essentials; small amounts of spices, and much more.I like the fact that these boxes are sturdily made, so they survive knocks and bumps, I also like the fact that the lids fit firmly but are also easy to remove when needed. The boxes also stack very well, and you can also fit the A5 size on top of the larger A4 size.The pop of colour is also very subtle from the outside, with a stripe of shiny hot pink, and then when you open the box the pink is much bolder.

I am a big fan of Leitz products - they can be somewhat pricey but I find their design and quality to be excellent. I love the WOW range with its great design and colours.I have a range of these boxes in different sizes and find them very useful. They are aesthetically pleasing enough to be kept anywhere in the home and the subtle but visible colour coding in the stripe at the bottom of the boxes is great for being able to identify which box stores which items. This review is for the 5L small box with the pink stripe, which I'm currently using in the bathroom to tidy up various toiletries I use on a daily basis. As other reviewers have pointed out,

This storage box has nice smooth lines with no sharp corners or edges. The lid does not snap on but placed on so there is no struggling to peel the lid , so a loose fitting lid. These boxes are stack-able and come in several colours on the base. I have bathroom and beauty products in mine. Having different colours means that items are easily found and if the family cannot find a product such as a toothbrush or toothpaste I can just tell them ` in the pink box`, hair products in the blue box ect. These boxes look tidy when stacked and could be used for storing anything such as baby products, kitchen storage, stationary, drawing box for the kids, medication..................

This is a 5l storage box, which is well designed and looks neat and smart. This is white and has a grey bottom, with a sleek, grey stripe around the bottom of the storage box. There are other colours and, with side handles, and a lip, which goes around the lid, these are stackable.On the plus side, these are nicely designed. They will stack well and you can colour code them, if you want to put different items in different boxes. The lid fits snugly and the handles are useful. Other storage boxes are see through, which makes it easier to see what you have inside, but don't, perhaps look as neat. I do think this is quite expensive for what it is, but certainly this is very well made and it looks nice.

Leitz A5 MyBox Small with Lid, Storage Box for Home and Office, 5 L, High Gloss, Plastic, White/Pink Metallic is a handy source of storage and it looks good at the same time which for me is a major bonus point.The plastic is smooth and made to a high-quality standard. It holds many items easily and tidily, the lid does not "click on" like other boxes I have owned in the past which I feel would hold items in a more secure way.I love Leitz products and have a few of their products and once again they have created a very handy and neat way of holding items. I like the A5 size for holding papers, magazines,

A very well made small storage box, lots of useful ways you can use it.Its not big, I thought 5 Litres was bigger than this, but if you image an A5 piece of paper which is basically the paper in your printer folded in half that gives you an idea of the box.The box is very well made, solid in construction, with a lid that fits perfectly slightly in the box.Its an ideal storage box, charging cables with charger, great size for that, I’m using for my A5 leaflets, I run events and am also having leaflets spill out when I’m moving from events, this is a perfect solution.There are cheaper on the market, but this is probably the best made I’ve come across, If you want well made,

This useful 'shoebox' shaped plastic box has a lid that contains the contents but doesn't seal them like Tupperw*re. It is deep and capacious, waterproof too, it can hold a 5l amount of liquid without leaking from the bottom of the box.I see it as an 'organiser' and the different colours of the base help you to identify the contents may be. I don't see the pink base shade as Metallic and it has annoying sticky label on the bottom that doesn't peel away easily. Other colours than pink are available - green, blue and white. The brochure shows them stacked two deep on shelves, usefully appearing in kitchen storage, as well as an office/craft room environment.

I already have one of these Leitz storage boxes, a long narrow one with a beautiful deep pink base. that one did not have a lid and I used it in my bathroom to store make up etc. This one is much larger and deep, has a lid and is white with a turquoise base. These storage boxes come in various shapes, sizes and colours and are so beautifully designed and elegant and are a pleasure to look at as well as being very useful. A brilliant combination of practicality and aesthetically pleasing style. If this combination appeals to you then you will be happy to pay the price foorfor them which some might find a bit too expensive. They are not your basic storage but designed to look good as well.
