I got the large ottoman. It is 30" wide x 15" long x 15" tall.  It is gray in color on the sides and top, and black on the bottom. What I did not realize that it folds together as accordion (see photos) and expands when you want to use it.  The sides are hard stiff cardboard. The top is stiff and padded.  The cover is actually heavier than the entire body of the storage.  The bottom is nylon material and is soft, however when you open it you place cardboard (covered in fabric) in the bottom of the box so it does not collapse. The cardboard is strong. How strong? I had my husband sit on the empty ottoman and even though he is close to 200 pounds in weight the ottoman did not have any problem holding him.  Since the ottoman was empty there was nothing else to help support his weight but the sides of the storage.  The description says that it supports up to 220 pounds and I believe it. I would not call this ottoman attractive, but it is sturdy and functional. ...

 The E'YOBE trash bags are true size. I use 4 gallon Glad trash bags, the gold standard of small trash bags, to determine if this trash bags is sized appropriately. These bags are bigger then 4 gallon Glad bags by several inches in each direction. In attached photo you can see the yellow E'YOBE bag under the white Glad bag for size comparison. E'YOBE bags is thinner than Glad bags, they are good for soft light trash. In one of the photos I show my hand inside the bag, I think it gives a good idea of the bag thickness and transparency.  The yellow bag is transparent and you can see the trash inside the bag. Each bag length is 18" and the width of 22" when it is folded in half. The bag has the same width at the top and at the bottom.  The bag has a draw string, which works well to close the bag when it is ready to be thrown out. The package includes a total of four rolls, each roll has 60 trash bags. You can find it on Amazon by following this link. Product review ...

This clip looks similar to a regular paper clip, but it just gently hugs the papers to hold them together.  The slips hold the papers very well, yet they can be removed and the papers have not signs of being bound together. The papers look better after the clip is removed compared to when I use paper clips which crease the paper a little bit. The package comes with 40 clips, 20 of each size.  The smaller ones hold between 2 and 30 pages, the larger ones hold  from 2 to 50 pages. Additional clips can be purchased separately here . you can locate no slip clip on Amazon . Product review ★★★★★

This shoe rack looks quite nice. It comes with a cushion so you can use it as a stool.  It can support the weight of my husband who is around 200 pounds. I decided I like all wood look better and we are using it without the cushion.  We are using the top as the shelf for purses, gloves and hats. Each shelf holds 2 pairs of shoes for a total of 4 pairs.  It also has a shallow draw, which is 2" deep. Assembly took me about 20-30 minutes.  It shelves comes with an Allen wrench. All hardware and holes lined up perfectly, the Allen wrench fit well but is just a  piece of metal without a handle and it was a bit cumbersome to use.  If I could use a screwdriver with a handle I would have put the shoe rack together in 10 minutes, but the little Allen wrench was a bit hard to hold.  Overall, I am pleased with look and function of this shoe rack.  The only thing that is not working perfectly is the metal piece that is supposed to hold the drawer up. It is to...

The thing about unknown brands of trash bags is that their volume does not always match my expectation. A few times I got trash bags that were much smaller than expected.  This 2.3 gallon W&S trash bags turned out to be larger than I expected. In attached photo you can see the white W&S bag  with the white Glad bag on top of it for size comparison.  You can see that W&S bag is larger than the 4 gallon Glad bag.  It is actually bigger than the 4 gallon W&S bag which I also got (it is also white and blue draw string). W&S bags are feel slightly thinner than Glad bags, they are good for soft light trash.  I am using them in the bathroom trash bin, they work very well there because all the bathroom trash is soft and small. In one of the photos I show my hand inside the bag, I think it gives a good idea of the bag thickness.  The white bag is semi transparent. Each bag length is 20" and the width is 18" when folded in half (36" total). Note t...

A few times I got trash bags that were much smaller than expected.  This 1.3 gallon W&S trash bags turned out to be larger than I expected it 3/4 of the size of 4 gallon Glad bag, not less than 1/2 size as the label would indicate.

The thing about unknown brands of trash bags is that their volume does not always match my expectation. A few times I got trash bags that were much smaller than expected.  The W&S trash bags are very similar in size to the 4 gallon Glad bags. In attached photo you can see the black W&S bag  with the white Glad bag on top of it for size comparison.  They are almost identical! W&S is just a little bit larger. W&S bags are feel slightly thinner than Glad bags, they are good for soft light trash.  I am using them in the bathroom trash bin, they work very well there because all the bathroom trash is soft and small. In one of the photos I show my hand inside the bag, I think it gives a good idea of the bag thickness.  The black bag hides the content of the bag well and this is just right for the bathroom trash bag. Each bag length is 17 3/4" and the width is 15.5" when folded in half (31" total). Note that my measurements are slightly different from th...

I have been using these cable ties for two winters to secure an electric cord to the railing of the deck.  They work very well.  They stay strong and tight all winter longer.  Rain and snow is not a problem.  They are easy to tighten and when the winter season is over I can easy cut them off with utility scissors.

I am using these hooks with HyLoft ceiling storage. The fit is perfect. I was wondering if they would make it harder to move boxes that are sitting on the grating but they do not. They are the same height as the rest of the grating. In attached image the hooks are laying on 1 inch gridded mat so you can see all the size of every part of the hook better. I am also including images of the hooks mounted on the grating. The part of the hook that attaces to the Hyloft system is 3.5" long (from outside to outside) The wire thickness is 0.25", so the inside spacing of the hook is 3" Each hook hang down 5.75" The flat part of the hook (where you hang things) is 3.25" The end that points up is 1.25" The hooks feel sturdy, I am very pleased.
