Has anyone tried using Sterilite drawers yet?
    #23600600 - 09/01/16 10:08 AM (7 years, 4 months ago)

I've seen it pop up a couple of times on the forums where folks were contemplating using these-



-as stacked monotubs. It seems like an interesting space saver, but I haven't actually seen a post where anyone went through with it. Seems like mostly thought experiments at this point. Can anyone speak from experience about how these worked out, or how a similar setup worked for you?

Potential issues I can see coming up:

-no support for the drawers when you pull them out for harvest (you'd have to take them all the way out)
-no top lighting, especially for second and third shelves
-potential issues limiting GE for colonization
-not sure if they're any more cost effective than standalone tubs

I think one of the benefits I can see to these drawers vs. literally stacking up monotubs is that if you want to get to that one second from the bottom, you don't have to unstack the entire column. You could just pull out the one you need.

EDIT: It just occurred to me you could just put them on shelves, though maybe it would be cheaper to build a rack that they slide into. Kind of like overhead storage in a garage, but in a different layout.
