Perfect for homework.,
I bought this to replace a clear plastic cup with swing out drawers that were always hanging open. I use this for my three kids to do their homework at the kitchen table. It holds everything they need, no excuses to get up looking for things. There are four pen compartments. You can fit probably a dozen Bic-sized pens in each. I use them for pencils, pens, markers, and crayons (and a pair of small scissors). The top has three open compartments that are great for erasers, paper clips, elastic bands, and a glue stick or two. The drawer is pretty big and can hold various items. We use it for sticky paper to mark pages or make quick notes. It is sturdy, I have no fears that it will fall apart. When homework is done or company is coming, I put it out of sight.
I liked it so much I got one for my desk and got rid of two or three random cups and holders. Also, being mesh, it is less likely to get dusty where it is hard to reach! I highly reccomend it!

Form follows function,
This is a superbly designed, solidly constructed organizer. It compares very favorably to the near useless, shoddily-made ones I find at my local office supply stores at higher prices. The various sizes and shapes of the compartments are a good mix for holding most anything one would wish to tidily store on one’s desk. The visibility that the mesh gives for small items like paper clips is also quite useful.
I’m a frequent user of an eighteen inch metal ruler that, annoyingly, doesn’t fit in any handy drawer. This organizer is sufficiently heavy to do great job of storing the ruler without getting all tippy.
It’s always a pleasure to find a well made item, thoughtfully designed, at a a reasonable price. I plan to get another one for some of my craft items.

Versatile and Holds Up Over Time…,
I have been using this organizing caddy for over 3 years now and couldn’t be more pleased. I purchased this caddy from a major discount retailer for about half the cost it is listed here now. It’s build very sturdy and has lots of dividers to keep different clips, types of pens, markers and pencils separated and organized. I used the little drawer to hold my memory devices like SD cards and USB sticks. Being black it can fit in with a variety of different office setups and goes well with most other Rubbermaid office organizational items.
