The Cardboard Box That Will Fit Anything

There have been many, many times in my life that I could have used one of these boxes.

This is a great idea

ok... but the rigidity of the corrugated fiber board will be completely compromised. the prevalence of square boxes is as such because they are easily stackable and tend not to collapse.

if you take a cardboard (technically corrugated fiber board) box apart you'll see that the flutes run vertically. that's no accident. the board is about 10x stronger vertically than if the flutes ran perpendicularly.

What is that thing in the photo that it is attempting to wrap and why am i scared?

UPS/Fedex charges less if you 'wrap' your shipment. So tires, buckets, and other strange shapes merely need a cardboard skin to avoid costly additional fees. The cardboard isn't meant to be protective of those sorts of things.

What nutbastard said: the invention is good if you want to cover something, but not if you want to protect something from mechanical stress. And if you only want to cover something you already have several solutions at hand, such as plastic bags, cling wrap, or even plain old paper.

Looks like this will be great when real friends help you move ;)

Looks like they are promoting it as a "must-have" item if you need to make an inconspicuous midnight dump into the river.

The link to this story states that, "the patterns make it easy to fold and conform to almost any shape while maintaining structural rigidity and protecting the contents."

Pragmatic. Me like.
