SOFI by Bankers Box, Brix Box Tall, Closet Storage, Foldable Storage Cube Basket

cute, fits perfectly in my cubby squares

Super sturdy and adorable!

The SOFI zipper tote is a great little storage solution. It's well made, nice looking, and works well.The SOFI is made of a mixture of a linen-like fabric on the outside and a square pattern on the inside. The outside fabric has a nice sheen to it and looks high quality. The outside fabric is goodish-brown in color, while the interior is done in a light blueish-lilac color. The small canvas handle and large zippers are also nicely made and the SOFI feels sturdy in the hand.The SOFI consists of two pieces, there is the box itself and the reinforced base. Without the base in place the walls of the box collapse down and the SOFI folds flat for easy storage. One downside, however, is that the base does not fit inside the folded SOFI so out have to make sure to keep the two pieces together or you'll be stuck with a SOFI that will collapse down on itself. Once the base is in place the SOFI is very sturdy and easy to move around.I've been using the SOFI in my hallway closet and have filled it with scarves, mittens, and earmuffs. It's perfect to place on a high shelf because you don't have to bring it down to remove an item, you only need to unzip the front. The zippers are large and smooth in action, with no snagging. If, however, you want to get the whole box down, it's easy to do so with the large handle on the front.All in all... a stylish storage box.

I picked this tote up to use in my never-ending quest to clean up and organize my closet shelves. I like it much more than I thought I would, my thoughts below.Pros:*I looked at the zippered front and thought, "um, yeah, that seems kind of ridiculous" but ending up thinking it was the best thing about the whole tote! You can stack items up in there from the top and then and zip open the front to pick out the item you need. You also can put the tote on a shelf with less "head room" and it is functional left right where you put it.*The tote is large enough to hold quite a few folded up T's or legging/jeggings/exercise pants. (Obviously it is too small to hold many larger or bulkier items.)*The two zippers function very nicely, they zip up and down smoothly.*It looks nice, pretty much as pictured aside from the fact that the handle gets a bit wrinkled in shipping and has more of a canvas-casual look to it than you would think from the photo.*It is relatively durable, seems like heavy duty cardboard covered with fabric.*Very cool that it is made with up to 80% recyclable materials too.*The current price - less than 15 bucks, is about right for what you get here.Cons:*The appearance of the tote while nice, isn't as pleasing as it could be. This is largely due to the canvas front handle. It looks pretty rough when contrasted with the silk fabrication of the exterior.Overall I really like this tote and absolutely love the zippered front panel. Only the wonky canvas handle keeps this from being a 5 star item for me.Recommended

I'm familiar with Closetmaid, Whitmor and Umbra's storage and organization products. SOFI brand items are new to me and this SOFI Zipper Tote, Small, is the first and only product of theirs that I've tried.Slid between closet or bookcase shelfs, most storage cubes have to be pulled out in order to get to the contents. If it's filled with heavy items, or a person has mobility issues, it could be cumbersome.This SOFI cube is unique. The zippered front gives one the option of opening a door to the cube, instead of pulling it off of its shelf. The zippers are substantial, much like those used in heavy coats.The element of being sturdy is evident in just about component of the SOFI cube. The attached handle is thick and seemingly unmovable. The panels that make up the folding sides are easily twice as thick as one other brand, as is the unfolding panel that snaps in to create a hard bottom for the cube.The SOFI cube further differentiates itself with soft blue grey interior fabric that contrasts nicely with the brown exterior. All in all, the SOFI product looks to have higher end finishes and an overall higher level of quality than any other brand I've tried.If I was using the cubes in a high traffic location in my home, a room where the cubes would be visible to every visitor, I'd consider buying the SOFI product instead of  ClosetMaid 786 Fabric Drawer, Brown , my preferred brand.

This is a nice tote that has a zippered front allowing access to the contents without always having to remove this from the shelf it is on. The sides feel strong and it folds up for easy storage.I like the zippered front on this. If a person is storing papers or clothes or other flat items the zipper allows access to these items without removing the tote from the shelf. It does come with a nice handle on the front that has brass rivets so if a person needs to remove this from a shelf he or she can grab the handle and pull it off the shelf.It looks nice inside and out. To me the outside looks more gold than the mocha described in the technical details. The inside has a nice design. The handle with the brass rivets also looks nice.There are two things I would change with this. It has one handle which does a person no good if he or she wants to carry it using the handle. I would add a second handle.While the material covering the tote looks nice, it feels like the Tote is made of a very strong cardboard or other substance. The sides of the tote feel hard to me. I wish there was an added layer of cushioning. This feels like a very strong box with material over it. A soft lawyer of something would add to the feel.Overall I do like this. It is a nice zipper tote that folds up easily and has a nice handle.

Please bring back everything in this line Bankers Box!!! It has helped me to get my closet done but they are too hard to find and ppl are price gouging others for them!
