Artisan Utility Bus Box and Storage Bin with Handles, 2-Pack, Gray, 15.5" x 21" x 7"

When I purchased these tubs, I knew exactly what I was going to use them for. I was trying to come up with an idea for what to use for my indoor aquaponics grow beds and bus tubs came to mind because of their sturdiness and size. Could I have gone with something larger for my grow beds and still fit them easily in the basement? Yes, but by choosing bus tubs I have the option to still add more tubs to the system and expand my system both vertically and horizontally much easier than if I went with something larger. With this being the first time that I've tried aquaponics for growing my own fruits and vegetables instead of tearing up the yard and installing a standard garden. After doing lots of research I felt aquaponics was a better and more cost effective way to go due to only having the initial cost, but gaining so much more in cost effective gardening in the long run.I will be buying more of these tubs in the future for not only adding more grow beds to my aquaponics system, but for other things like as a meat tub when grinding meat into hamburger or even for having empty mason jars in them for easier access when canning. I'm sure the more I have them around and continue using them for additional things that I will continue to come up with different ways of using them.I will update this review once I get the rest of my supplies needed for my aquaponics system and get it up and running so I can give these tubs a chance to be used for a while.Pros: Cost, sturdiness, size, unlimited usesCons: more color choices would be nice

These are exactly what they claim to be .. Heavy duty busboy bins. I got them for my 4 prairie dogs to use them as feeding bins for their hay. I like that they are tall and that keeps the hay in the cage somewhat contained. The plastic is very heavy duty and although my prairie dogs chew on EVERYTHING, they actually only nibbled a little bit on these and I think that's because the plastic is very hard. I'm pretty sure it is polyethylene just like they advertise. The only thing I'm not fan of are the ridges in the bottom. I understand the purpose of them .. If you are using them for their intended purpose which is to bus dishes, then those ridges are necessary. However, using them as a bin to hold hay it's kind of a pain when I have to clean them because of those ridges but that is not the fault of the manufacturer so I can't give it minus stars for that. Also, it's a great deal for two bins. I looked and looked and this is by far the best deal for the price.

Bought these for restaurant use and they've held up great for 2 years now. The handles on the ones we had been getting through our food vendor started breaking soon after purchased so I tried these. The only downside is I came back to buy more but the price has gone up significantly, time to look for another option.

I bought these to have a non toxic, food safe, bpa free container to do my detox footbaths (since I am so highly sensitive to toxins of all kinds), and it works great! I thought it would be too much water, but I find that having so much water actually makes the foot bath keep its warmth and its nice to swirl around my feet in the water. We actually ended up using the other one to help with preparing raw food for our cats (raw food is the only thing that keeps their health issues at bay) - its nice and big, makes it easy to mix in the vitamins, easy to scoop into smaller containers for freezing. Plus we give them a little banquet before scooping it up into containers. We were using 5 gallon buckets before, but I didn't realize those weren't food safe. I feel much better using this for their food prep.

These bins are made of a thick sturdy plastic, they are not floppy. Perfect for hand washing big sweaters and I needed something to soak placemats to remove stains. I couldn't find the right bins at the right price for me. At a lower cost, I kept finding small foot soaking bins with floppy walls. That's ok for other things but I wanted a tough versatile bin and this is it. This is a perfect size for laying placemats flat. I didn't notice any bumps or pieces of plastic sticking out from the manufacturing process that would snag my sweaters. I also used one of these to transport paperwork when I couldn't find a box. It's a good utility box that can be used for more than just bussing kitchenware. I could use it for art supplies and soaking watercolor paper. So many possibilities.

I won’t be bussing any tables any time soon but it’s exactly what I am looking for. Cat litter boxes I have gotten are just so weak and flimsy and don’t last. This utility buss box has been doing cat duty for years. I broke the last one finally from cleaning it out but I’d had it for almost three years because of its sturdiness. The size is perfect and it’s made to last. I’m satisfied with the quality but this time I will be using plastic bags to keep it in pristine condition longer before cleaning is needed. Four Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!!

- great storage, litter box, dishes bucket, anything. solid plastic. Great size.

These plastic bins have been used for a wide variety of needs from storing animal feed, or hay, to bathe chickens, for storage, etc. I like how sturdy they are. Like most plastics they don’t indoor the sunlight.
