Tools and Hardware Reviews of ClosetMaid 8697 Fabric Drawer, Natural
Customer Review: Excellent for Home Storage
Summary: 5 Stars
I got these to help organize a wooden storage cube, and they have worked excellently. Now my entryway looks much more appealing, and the cubes were just the right height! In person, they look just a shade darker than in the photos, and it complements wood extremely well. They've worked just great for me!Customer Review: Excellent product

Summary: 4 Stars
I ordered a single natural colored one to see if it would fit where I wanted to use it; it does, so I came to order more and wanted to mix the colors. Turns out the natural is shipped by Amazon, most of the other colors by Ace. I was STUNNED when shipping was as much as the product; needless to say I gave up on the colors and ordered all natural ones. NOTE: I have Amazon Prime so the natural ones shipped for free and I can't say what Amazon would charge for shipping w/o a Prime membership, but I doubt it would double the cost!
Quality: I haven't looked at a lot of these, so I really can't say. Seems sturdy enough if you don't go loading cans or books in them. Should work fine to organize some bedside stuff onto a bookcase. Each has a removable stiff piece that fits in the bottom and is covered in the same fabric and includes a pull tab (fabric as well.) I was glad to see these as they give me the option of cutting a piece of cardboard for the bottom and using the bottom stiffener as a lid if the inside clutter shows. Corrugated cardboard might make a stiffer bottom, too.
I'll cross post at the bookcase, but since my current living situation is of unknown duration (taking care of aging mother,) I didn't want to invest in furniture that isn't flexible for future use. Since I'm always in need of bookcases I decided to go with good folding bookcases. These "drawers" fit 3 across on the lower two shelves of a single mission folding bookcase (really nice item, too) found here:

I can see that when I add the mantle top, one of these will not fit on the top shelf under the mantle top, but I suspect if you were to stack two of the bookcases that these would fit on the shelf where the "join" is found.
Customer Review: Great for my bookshelf

I do not own the Closet Maid organizer that these bins are made for. I have couple of standard bookshelves and i wanted to make it look a bit neater by covering some of the storage. They work perfectly. I measured my shelves to make sure they would fit and they are sturdy little bins. The price was cheaper than what i found in stores. I am considering ordering more of them for the top shelf of my closet.
I bought the natural color. The color is exactly as it appears on the site for me.
Customer Review: Great storage solution
Summary: 4 Stars
I have 2 blue fabric drawers for about 3 years now. They are very durable. These fit perfectly on my new bookcases; 3 drawers will fit on a 3 foot bookcase. I can fit about five 1 inch binders in one drawer. I purchased 6 of these to hide my ugly binders, spinal bound and paper back books. The bottom has a removable board so they can collapse and fold neating away when you're not using them. The only thing I did not care for is that it only has one handle, but that is why its a 'drawer'.
