Got this to organize my desk clutter (diary, journal, pens, scissors, washi tape, highlighters, etc.).
Keeps people out of my stuff (they can see what they are not supposed to mess with) and makes everything fast and easy to find. It's stable, unlike different little pen cups and what-not, can relocate to a different surface for long-term planning/calendar coordination and has a low center of gravity, so it's really hard to tip over. Super-easy to clean.
Works like a charm and easy to grab the whole thing and tuck it away when I need to.
