I like this product. I store magazines in them, but the top is too flimsy - my cat caves it in when he tries to sit on it.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Handwoven Maize Storage Trunks - Set of 2:

I am using the larger one as a linen holder in the bottom of my hutch and it is great. The other is being used as a box to hold my grand daughter's dress up clothes...no worry about her smashing her fingers since it is a soft box with a velcro closing.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Handwoven Maize Storage Trunks - Set of 2:

Very disappointing.
These are made of flimsy woven grass; frame is made of cardboard! Lining is some thin synthetic. Handles don't even look like leather.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Handwoven Maize Storage Trunks - Set of 2:

These trunks are not well made. I used them for hair supplies for my 3 daughters, just barettes, pony tail holders, detangler spray, etc. They are not made to be opened and reopened on a regular basis, or moved around for that matter. My larger one is falling apart, both handles included, the small one is still okay, but the self stick tabs are falling off. Kind of disappointed, I was hoping for an attractive, yet useful storage device.

These are great trunks. Eactly as represented on the website. I have them in my living room to hold magazines, dog toys, etc. and I can close them up and hide everything away. They are sturdy and well made. I'm going to order more as gifts.

 
stylish but not practical

Comments about Lillian Vernon Handwoven Maize Storage Trunks - Set of 2:

Product looks great, but does not hold up well to frequent use. Also, it is not sturdy enough to actually be stacked (as photo shows). The velcro came off after a short period of time and the straw began to fall off, as well. Nice idea, but not practical for use.

It's nice to keep small things. I guess I didn't pay attention to the size details. A little smaller than I expected but still worth keeping.
