Topfit under seat storage box

[Wendy.ting]

I own a model Y. I want to buy a storage box that I can put under the seat, I saw a Topfit silicone storage box on Amazon, it doesn't make any sound during use, but I saw reviews that it is flexible. Should I buy it?

 

[Mulkogi]

Its amazon bro. Buy it, test it, if no likey then return it.

These are the ones I bought. They work fine -- no noise, don't slide out on their own.

Can you check if this blocks the rear foot vents? I've always wondered.

Sorry for the delayed response. I have CRS so I kept forgetting to check.

The answer is no, it does not block the vents. The rear of the drawer end right at the front edge of the vent.

One issue with these under-seat storage boxes. They are hard to pull out if you also have all weather floor mats with higher sides. We have to pull up the mat first before sliding the box out.

Yeah, even without all weather mats they are not that easy to access. I keep rarely used, but need to have items in mine like towels for if I get caught in the rain and need to dry off, first aid kit, things like that.

I have these underseat trays for my fronts. It's not too hard to pull out with the floor mats; however, I don't pull it out all time. - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09NBL277Y/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Mine aren't too hard to pull out, but I don't keep daily use items in there. Under the drivers seat are emergency blankets, windshield cleaner and towels for that. Under the passenger seat are spare towels.

I have the Basenor under-seat storage box and Tesmanian floor mats that have really high walls. I used a Ronan Multi-Cut Rubber Cutter to trim a section roughly about 15" x 5" out of the back of the floor mat. This works great for me and gives me easy access to the storage box but if you poured a bucket of water onto the floor mat then water would leak out where I made the cut.

Oh, I see this product, but I don't see a good review about buying it, even though it's cheap. But I didn't buy it.

Difficult to deal with if water comes out during car wash

I don't follow you. Do you have a problem with the interior of your car getting flooded during a car wash?

People with easy enter setting ON, are you able to reach into the bin without pulling out the bin drawer?

With the seat all the way back I could easily reach into all of my Basenor under-seat storage box while seated if my arms were long enough. You can verify this without a box since the back of the box abuts the floor vent.

When the inside of my car is very dirty, I will wipe it with a damp towel, and I will not pour water in the car

Got it. I don't pour water into my car either which is why cutting the floor mat is not a problem. Maybe people who live in areas with heavy snow and slush would prefer to keep their floor mats intact.

BTW: I use the 3D LVP products for cleaning the interior. I use Meguiar's Vinyl and Rubber Cleaner/Conditioner for cleaning the floor mats. It's good at restoring the black color although it seems to be out of stock most places ATM.

Did you get the ones with, or without, the silicone case? I purchased both, and find that the ones without the silicone overlay slide in and out easier, but they are more prone to noise, since items slide around them quite easier.

Yeah I got the one without silicon case, I do have bottles that do slide around in there if they are not packed tightly.
