Oh Ouch! I just yesterday was carrying this storage bin into the house filled with fabric for a log cabin quilt when the handle came out and the bin dropped on my leg as I was coming through the door. You should, well maybe not!, see the bruise on my leg. Still hurts too.
Go with something else or put it in a bag with better handles. Good luck.
I know one thing I really really like. It is used for scrapbooking. It is a crate with a cover insert with all sorts of pockets inside and on the outside. There is plenty of room for the FW and then you could use all the great pockets for accessories. I only paid $50 for it and it has been well worth the price. PLUS, it has a pull up handle like a suitcase and its on wheels. LOVE IT!!
You might even be able to get it cheaper with a Joanns, Hobby Lobby coupon.
