I bought these last year for my son's footlocker. He used the footlocker with wheels for 1 week of summer camp. The wheels came off and won't go back on now. It looks as though the bracket was faulty (ie not strong enough metal to hold the wheels without giving way) and now won't hold either wheel in place. I have ordered another set for this year's camp experience, though I'm not happy about it. If the same thing happens, you'll definitely hear from me again.

The trunk was delivered in perfect condition, and is constructed quite well, and seems really sturdy! I bought this trunk to take to the 2018 Barbie Convention, and it will definitely get the job done! It is very roomy, and everything that i need to pack/take with me will fit, as well as transport purchases back home. I got the trunk in Hot Pink, and added the Pennant Style Name Plax, along with the easy to use Wheel Away System. This trunk is one of the best purchases that I've made this year so far, and will be my luggage of choice for all of my Annual BarbieCon trips! Why didn't I think of this sooner?

There's no breeze coming off this fan, and it didn't help cool my daughter at camp with no air conditioning. Wish I could return it.

Bought this footlocker two years ago. The first year of camp, it handled a trip up and back to Northern California. The second year of camp, it barely made it back in one piece, it had to be duck taped around the whole unit so that the camp could send it back. When I was growing up, I had one trunk that lasted my entire camp career of 10 years. It's a shame that products are no longer built in the same way.

I was looking for a trunk to put in front of my bed and I picked The Graduate. I'm glad I did because it's a very well-made trunk and I love how it looks. It offers me plenty of storage space. It's just what I was looking for!

these were ordered to label clothes, and did not clearly state they were to lable items I just read that now when going back to look at what they were advertised as.

Really this is a bag, not a bottle. A plastic liner is inside the cloth pouch. No leaks and the pop up spout works fine. I would buy this product again.

These were really hard to iron on even after following all directions. Most smeared and stretched or tore. The ones that did iron on came off after first wash. Waste of time and money. Will look for better product next summer!

Sent a bracket that looked nothing like what is here in the picture. Holes not aligned on corners by 1/4 of an inch. Wish I could post a photo. Going to have to butcher the trunk to make it work.

Pros: I was very impressed with the appearance and quality of the trunk. I bought it for my daughter to use while working at the Iowa State Fair for 11 days. The Wheel Away system will be excellent for the long haul she will make to her dorm room. She was really impressed with the different colors to choose from and the stylish nameplate. I would recommend your products to everyone. Thank you!

Pros: very easy to use. the wheels can come off if there isn\'t enough room to stow your trunk under the bed. Very durable. My daughter has a long distance to move her trunk on leaving day, and the wheels make it much easier to move the trunk and duffle in one trip. It bounces over roots and small rocks nicely. Worth the cost to have them added at the time of purchase.

Pros: Snap on wheels really rock! And the snap off feature means the trunk stays level. Cinch sack is a nice bonus. Cons: Would like more color options: green, silver, etc. Comments: We retrofit my daughters' trunks with this new system (very easy to do). They love being able to handle the trunks themselves. Even fully loaded, with a snapon duffle on top the trunks move easily.

Pros: Great little find for a shopper when putting together the camp list - easy to use, fits inside all types of clothing and easy to iron on. Cons: Though the instructions don't say so, you should iron the top of the lab slightly to get it to stick on initially, then label the backside per the instructions. Comments: My daughter loved the horse animal on her labels and I liked being able to iron on the labels quickly with her full name and not having to worry about using a black sharpie on her clothing.

Pros: Sturdy, keeps camp items organized, liner is fantastic, must get the Glide and Go Tray, great colors, great for standing on to climb to upper bunk. Shipping speed was amazing.
\n\nCons: Incredibly heavy and hard to carry, ouch those handles are awful! expensive
\n\nComments: We ordered this trunk the Sunday before our daughter left for camp, when the trunk we planned to borrow fell through. It arrived on Thursday, which still gave her plenty of time to enjoy the whole packing experience. The trunk is incredibly sturdy, my kids were all jumping up and down on it, to verify that it truly is sturdy. The liner on the inside of the trunk is a really great feature and protects the wood from any damp items. Glide and go tray is a must have. Helps with the organization and keeping messy bathroom items separate in case they leak. Organization of her clothing and accessories was so easy. Other friends had to dig through big duffel bags or suitcases, and she was able to just reach in, like she was going in a dresser drawer. And, she had the top bunk, so it was useful to use for standing on to climb up into the bunk bed. The only problem is that it is really heavy - even empty. We kept the cardboard box to store it in, to keep it from getting all dusty, but that does make it harder to lug up into the attic. And, the handles really really hurt my hands when I was helping her carry it. We did not opt to get the wheels, because the reviews were mixed - and after going to her camp, I don\'t think they would have been much help, and might even have gotten lost. But, I still might consider them for next year, since my knuckles hurt just thinking back to carrying the fully loaded trunk! All-in-all, extremely satisfied with this purchase and I know that it will last for many more years of camping!
\n\nStore Response: Thank you for your review. As of 2016 we do have new handles. These new handles are wider and allow you to carry the trunk closer to your body if you are carrying the trunk by yourself. If you have one person on each end our new handles allow people to get both hands into the handle (the old handles only fit one hand). With two hands in the handle the trunk feels lighter and it\'s easier to balance out the load. We are always open to new ideas. Feel free to contact our Customer Service anytime at 1-800-535-2057.

Pros: I recently purchased "The Happy Camper" footlocker and snap on duffle bag for my son's first sleep-a-way camp. I have owned several "store" bought footlockers in the past, during my college days. I must admit, I was very impressed with the quality of the C&N Footlocker! While preparing to pack the footlocker, I observed my daughter sitting it. My immediate reaction was to advise her to get off before she damaged it. After recalling some of the advertising claims, I said move over and I sat on the footlocker, also! In addition, the quality of the footlocker, I was even more impressed with the customer service of C&N. "I" over-stuffed the locker and damaged one of the clamps. I called C&N, to tell them what happened, ... before I could finish my sentence, "Pam" said, "I'll send a replacement out to you right away." I look forward to my son having this footlocker for a long time and will buy one for my daughter next year when she goes to sleep-a-way camp for the first time.

I was excited about the product because I love organization! However, I was unaware it was only made to fit trunks from everything summer camp and was left paying shipping and return shipping fees.
Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
