Akro-Mils 16-Drawer Plastic Storage Cabinet | 10-1/2 x 6-1/2 x 8-1/2 Inch | Black | Model 10116 | Garage Organization

This Akro-Mils 64-drawer cabinet is a total game changer for keeping small items organized. I use it to store jewelry-making supplies, but it would work just as well for craft materials, hardware, beads, or even office essentials. The drawers glide smoothly, and the cabinet itself feels sturdy and well-built, definitely not flimsy plastic. I love that the drawers are clear, so you can quickly see what’s inside without opening each one, and the unit is lightweight enough to move around if needed. It can be mounted on the wall or placed on a desk or shelf, which makes it super versatile for different workspaces. If you love staying organized or work with lots of small parts, this storage cabinet is worth every penny, practical, durable, and surprisingly sleek for something so functional. Pro tip: pair it with the Akro-Mils dividers for even more customization, perfect for sorting tiny pieces or delicate supplies.

I purchased one of these cabinets in November for craft storage. I didn't think I would need more than one; however, when I started organizing my craft supplies, I quickly realized that I would need a couple more cabinets. I order two more and will be working on my craft room organization. I purchased two of the white color cabinets that have the two sizes of drawers and one with all large drawers. The storage capacity is amazing. I have a lot of little jewelry findings and sublimation blanks that fit perfectly in the drawers. They are sturdy enough to hold everything I currently have, and I created some labels to be able to find everything at a glance. They look great on the long bookcase I have in my craft room. As for the dividers, I haven't used the ones on the back of the cabinets. If I do need dividers in the future, I have chip board I can used to make them. All in all, a great find for someone who has a lot of craft supplies.

I collect junk—I make tiny weird things out of other tiny, weird things. These chests of small drawers have my garbage/treasures/supplies organized to the Nth degree. I have six 24-drawer chests, stacked and anchored to a studio wall. They hold everything from cut nails to seed beads to animal bones to microscope slides. Just bought a 7th and 8th cabinet, but I went with 44- and 64-drawer units. I’m so excited! Cool thing is, drawers from ones purchased 10-20 years old are interchangeable with new ones. Since the 90s at least, the drawers have been made of a slightly flexible, translucent Rubbermaid-esque plastic. I can rearrange drawers endlessly between different units, and they are virtually unbreakable. Housings are harder—maybe polystyrene?—and are made with stops to allow drawers to hang out, open. Easy, consistent, and durable. Also, the drawers have internal rails—I can divide them in half with strips of cardboard if I want. (The back of the unit has plastic dividers one can snip out to use as templates, too!) The price keeps going up—but buying through Amazon is cheaper than most big box retailers. (Home Depot has white-on-white ones, though!) These are still made in the US—and isn’t that something to support? Akron, Ohio for the win. EDIT: unlike most craft storage totes and caddies that have a ton of wasted dead space and are made to eventually crack, tip, or fall apart, these units are heavy enough to not wobble or slide around, and they are compact—barely larger than the drawers they hold. I could rave about great storage for days—these are at the top of my recommendation list. IRIS storage from The Container Store has a tendency to yellow. Akro-Mils does not, in my experience. Again, I’d rather pass on throwaway plastic junk and buy something made to last a lifetime (that just happens to be plastic).

I picked up this Akro‑Mils organizer to sort small hardware and electronics parts, and the overall build quality is solid. The drawers slide smoothly, the cabinet feels sturdy, and the layout makes it easy to keep different components separated and easy to reach. For general workshop or hobby use, it does the job well. The main drawback is the number of dividers included. There aren’t enough to outfit all the drawers, so if you want every compartment split, you’ll need to buy additional dividers separately. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it does add to the total cost if you need full customization. On the positive side, this organizer is popular enough that there are plenty of 3D‑printable divider designs available. I printed a set for the drawers I needed, and they fit well and solved the shortage without having to order extra parts. Overall, it’s a reliable storage cabinet with good durability and flexibility, but the limited divider count keeps it from being perfect.

Product works great for my scrapbook small decoration pieces and price was very good!

Great storage organization. Used for LEGO. Very sturdy good quality. Drawers slide easily. Easy to use.

It is exactly what I had hoped it would be. It is a bit large (wide), but at 4 ft 11 inches, that is probably why. Hubby set up a storage container a couple of inches above my worktable so I can reach it, but it is a small stretch. I love the size of the trays and having extra dividers for some of the trays will be of help. I have placed some of the items, but it is a slow process because hubby finally gave in and bought me a 6 ft table to do my measuring, cutting, get what I would need to do my painting on the material. Making quilts with buying sheets, good quality ones and cut them into the blocks the size I need. Putting carbon paper down (type that can be washed off) trace the coloring page and then painting with acrylic markers and paint in tubes. I now have plenty of room to do the work I need, area for markers, tubes of paint, scissors, and more with extra room left over. Am so HAPPY to have this table, price was good, it is solid, and I think it will be perfect for what I want to do. Thrilled with it, would highly recommend it for someone looking for something longer and wider, strong (holds 300 pounds) and just what I had hoped for.

Good quality plastic and well made product.

I bought 10 Akro-Mils storage cabinets to organise and store my entire stock inventory for my online business, and they have been fundamental to allowing me to run and organise my business properly. They offer a huge amount of storage in a really efficient way (providing that the items are relatively small), and it’s surprising just how much can fit into them. The clear plastic drawers make it really easy at a glance to see roughly how much space is left to fill and what item is in each container, and the material allows for labels to be attached fairly easily. (For reference I use a label maker to print custom label stickers, and they adhere very well). I’ve had problems in the past with effectively labelling storage drawers, as stickers don’t attach well, but with these cabinets, that isn’t a problem at all. I really like how the bottom 12 containers are double the size of the top 32, as it allows for versatile storage, and makes the cabinets suitable for a wider range of items. The material is a lightweight plastic, which makes it really easy to lift and move the cabinets, but it also durable and can hold a decent amount of weight without feeling flimsy. The plastic smooth and is easy to clean and dust. They also have 4 holes in the back on each corner, so can be very simply mounted to a wall, which makes them really strong. They also have 2 grooves on the top and bottom of each drawer, so they can be stacked on top of each other perfectly, making it a perfect storage choice for anyone looking to expand their storage in the future. I would personally recommend this item to anyone, and for the price, nothing comes close in terms of quality and practicality. 10/10!

Segun lo esperado

Very very low quality product. the one look the same I bought from Lazada and made in china is way better! don't ever buy this cheap product from amazon! extremely disappointed!

Buen tamaño, ideal para organizar. Los cajones son opacos no transparentes, pero si se alcanza a ver un poco.
