3 Wardrobe Boxes

The media could not be loaded. This is the transcript from my review video:These cardboard boxes are brilliant. They're brilliant moving boxes. They're easy to put together, they're easy to construct and they're very solid and they're very strong. I know that because when I was trying to break it down it was difficult to break down. I bought various different moving boxes over the years moving within America, moving from America to England, moving from England back to America and one thing I find is that the weak ones they only last so long. Personally I tend to reuse boxes because there's fair amounts of moving going on and these ones were a good price. They were delivered quickly, they were strong, they also had the steel, they've got the wardrobe hanging attachment within it and I think if you're looking for something this is a great quality at a very very good price, a reasonable price and it's even better than the prices I'd found online in the big stores at least at the time. So I'm happy to give these a great review and if you're looking for a wardrobe box this is a very very good one to buy.

I packed three of these boxes, average weight of about 15lbs of clothes inside - maybe 20 hangers of everything from big sweatshirts to ties to t-shirts.PROS: hold a lot of clothes, easy to assemble. Durability exceeded my expectations. The boxes went through a two story decline to a PACKED Uhaul (box sturdy enough to place at least 20lbs on top if folded and sealed properly, 10 hour drive, and then a 3 story incline. Only one minor issue of a side handle ripping when lifting through the door into the destination.CONS: awkward to carry - needed two people. not because of the weight, but because of the width/length. Pretty expensive, but worth it in the end.

Ah, moving. who likes moving? Nobody. I remember this one time I moved, I hauled a couch, an armoire, a few tables, and a king sized mattress up three flights of stairs, only to realize the next day there was an elevator on the other side of the building. I hate moving.That being said, I didn't use these boxes for moving. Instead, I taped the boxes together, then laid two large plastic tarps on a field, put dish soap all over the tarps, and sprayed the tarps down with water. Then, I allowed 90 teenagers to put the boxes on their heads and then try and run across the dish soap laden tarps. The idea was that they would either slip and fall or run into each other. Either way, I would laugh at them.If you're going to use the boxes for this purpose, I highly recommend recruiting 7th and 8th grade kids to wear the boxes. They are the perfect height for these boxes. When you put these boxes over their heads, they come down to just below the knee. Inside the box, you're pretty much covered in darkness, which means you can't see that there is a 185 pound 12th grader running full speed at you on a wet, slippery tarp.But even for the 12th grade student, the box works. It comes up to just above the knee, which still gives a pretty decent descent into darkness, while still giving you the confidence to run full speed across a wet, slippery tarp. That's a versatile product if I've ever seen one.The only thing I would say about this box, is that I should have added baby oil to the dish soap mixture. That would have been awesome. So...if you're planning to move, that stinks. But if you're planning to put a box over some kids' heads, this is the box for you.

Yes, these wardrobe boxes function the way the should: they hold hangers. You can easily fit around 18-22 thick winter coats or 30-40 dress shirts. I'd recommend using durable/thin/non-bending hangers if you are shipping these boxes (clothes will fall off hangers during travel).Along with taping shut every opening, I reinforced the edges of the box with tape, as well as the handles on the side. This helped preserve the box during travel, but be sure not to put anything heavy on top of these boxes or else risk the box collapsing on itself (remember that the hanger rack disperses its weight all on the top of the box). Also, don't count on the handle holes on the sides of the boxes - they will rip if there's too much weight.So yes, get these for a quick simple way to move your clothes. or not.Pros:- cheap- easy to useCons:- not the sturdiest cardboard- must reinforce with tape- can't put too much on the hanger rack or you'll collapse the box
