I love the idea, I have all sorts of little containers that are in my storage bins and I have to search for the things I need every time I make a card or do a page in my scrapbook. I would love to have one of these.

CONS
It's not very attractive. I keep all my craft supplies in cute little fabric bins on shelves in my office so this contraption would definitely be an eye sore.

OVERALL
I love the functionality of the Quad Stow N' Go, I guess I could keep it in the nearby closet! :)

I think this is the best idea for carring beads,bangles,bobbles,clasps,and other findings. i am a beader and have mine in little baggies,so when i move them from my storage BOX,to my work station i usually leave a path of an assortment of beads and things.how nice it would be to move from one place to another without having to backtrack picking up beads.It is something I would use and show friends of its conveince. Thank You, Sherry Driggs

I love the looks of the Quad Stow N' Go. Great for small embellishments. I checked the website of origin & found that it's 7"x7"x9", which isn't too big 7 bulky. And I love carousels because you get double- or triple-duty out of a space.

CONS
The price! Even on the website of origin, it's almost $27. I'll really have to save up to buy one for myself, let alone as a Christmas gift for my rubber-stamping buddy.

OVERALL
I think it's a good product. It will probably sell well; others don't seem to have the financial limitations I have.

this is a wonderful contatiner for small stuff which is such a drag to try and keep organized and quick at hand at the same time. as well as the obvious swivel which is rather ingenious.

CONS
well surface area available and it doesnt look as mobile as some storage units but perhaps you dont necessarily need to take every thing out to the scrap groups that have been popular.

OVERALL
anything that helps maintain order with a great number of small items that one may or may not use right away or eventually is a god send. so all in all this product could never really be bad. Its just that some may find more uses for it than others. I for one can see lots of possibilities.

Basic concept is great. The swivel base was a good idea.

CONS
The little containers felt pretty thin and were tough to open. I was afraid I was going to break them.

OVERALL
Great for keeping little stuff you don't get into very often neat. But for the price I was pretty dissapointed. I gave mine to a friend who does a lot of beading and needed something to keep odd's and end's in.

I have had the Stow N' Go system for awhile now and I love the functionality of this product. The swivel is great and I can see exactly what I'm looking for in the clear containers.

CONS
The containers can be difficult to get back into the slots and hard to open which is difficult for my arthritic hands.

OVERALL
Product is very functional for keeping all those tiny embellishments sorted and at your fingertips.

I love the design and functionality of it. The concept was well thought up. I like how it has plenty of compartments to use.

CONS
I would like to see it in different colors. The price also seems a little high. I pay a lot of money for my embellishments and accessories and this would cut into that big time.

OVERALL
While I do not have one of these, I feel I definetely could use one. I have the perfect spot on my workspace that it could sit. Great concept.

I have one of these on my craft/sewing table. While i use mine for everything from paper clips; Its great for straight pins and ALL my extra pressure foots for my sewing machine so that they stay all in one place! I put buttons and beads and snaps and even rhinestones in the others! And...you can pick it up and move it with you if needed!

CONS
None I can find!

OVERALL
I'd recommend this product to anyone who crafts or sews. It simply makes life easier!

it does help organize my beads and I can see at a glance what I have, grab it and go

CONS
it isn't the most attractive, it is very functional, my grand daughters love this

OVERALL
it is handy, keeps me organized, supplies are handy at all times. If you don't like the appearance take some of your favorite material and make a little slip cover for it or something

Design of this is good.

CONS
There is only one. With what appears to be a handle on the top these can not be stacked. If the handle were made to move to either side it would allow for these to be stacked one on top of the other which would fit in my shelves.

OVERALL
The design is good. I purchased something similar and the design of the two I purchased can stack but you have to lay it on its side to open containers located around the middle storage area. This is a slight problem if you have not assured the top is fastened tightly.

Love the storage for smaller items (buttons, beads, brads, bling). It is portable - fits in my scrapbooking crate.

CONS
The price is expensive. I bought it thru a discount catalog for about 1/4 the price.

OVERALL
Great idea.
