We use either traditional Rubbermaid bins (the coloredrubbery ones that are opaque, they last forever) or the clear Sterilite ones with colored lids. They crack more easily, because clear plastic tends not to be plasticized as much.
Do the ones you linked really cost 55$ for two? Or is that an inflated price on Amazon.
I'm surprised they break down after 1-2 years. Most of ourselves are 10+ years old. They mostly so in the closet. They definitely will all break down quickly if used outdoors as they don't have UV additives in the plastic.
