The NEATERIZE cubes are among my purchased storage supplies. Building the patio drawer gave me a practical example of how the opening, usable interior space and access direction determine which containers make sense.
I bought NEATERIZE 13-Inch Black Fabric Storage Cubes as part of my camper van equipment.

Comparing the Cube Footprint Before Choosing a Container
I planned the storage assembly and simulated the roof dimensions on the patio.
I built the timber drawer frame and base, then cut the rubber lining with scissors.
I fitted the lining with adhesive, screws and washers before attaching the slides to the drawer and cabinet.

My Takeaway from This Job
The drawer build made usable opening space a practical constraint. NEATERIZE and the first alternative use a thirteen-inch cube format; Royexe reduces that footprint to roughly eleven inches, changing the space needed around the bin.

Fabric storage cubes need a little working room around their finished shape. Assemble the base panel and fill one bin before measuring the shelf opening. A pull handle needs space for the fingers, and a soft side can bulge when packed. Compare the useful depth with the contents rather than choosing by the nominal cube size alone. In a van cabinet layout, a full-size trial also shows whether the bin can pass through the doorway without being tilted or unpacked.
