C&W Crate

Not sure if this has been reviewed / talked about on here (I haven't seen or found it) but I'm really loving these homebrew cases from C&W Crates.

A million times better for storing the glorious fruits of our labors than cardboard. Anyone else had a chance to pick some of these up? If not, you won't be dissapointed.

...only wishing I had an interest in this company...

CHEERS!

Yes, I bought the 4-pack when they were first introduced. Very good product. I use them to store empties as well. I like that the crates are waterproof. I plan to buy some of the new bomber size crates soon. It's also nice that they are lightweight. Some may think that they are too pricey, but they are very durable and should last indefinitely with reasonable care. I think they are well worth the price. American made too, which is always a plus these days.

Seen these in person at a homebrew seminar in May and really like them. Probably be on my shopping list after a get my system built up a bit more.

And FYI - You can save money by purchasing the unbuilt boxes and putting them together yourself.

Just to bring this thread up to date, I totally agree with the previous posts regarding these crates. Outstanding product and well worth the $$$. They can be a bit of a hassle to assemble, but they are a permanent addition to your homebrewing supplies. These crates are really strong, they won't rot and fail if exposed to moisture, and I believe mine will see years of service.

Like most home brewers I have continued to use the cardboard cases I could get but, over time they have begun to fail. Also, my collection of bottles has grown as I have tried 6 packs of various microbrews that looked interesting. The problem? More bottles than cases. The solution? C&W crates. Like a previous poster said, I only wish I had a financial stake in this company! I just ordered 4 more of these crates today. Definitely recommend them.
