German Overdesign: Festool's Fancy New Systainer Organizers
If they don't live on a shelf they crack. All the time. The only reason people don't throw them out is because they paid so much for a plastic box that they feel guilty about it. I've got five of them in the attic that I need to smash and get rid of right now, I've just been too lazy to drag them down.
not overdesigned, but very well designed, and the indignation about recyclability is on point. my systainers have taken more abuse than I'd care to admit over the last 10-15 years, and they all still function perfectly.
What exactly is overdesigned about this? It seems quite restrained and function-oriented to me.
