Great studio accessory

It looked pretty much like the photos, but we ended up staining it to a dark wood. I went over 30 yrs of shooting not needing one , but my wife felt our new studio would be complete with having a set of them. I immediately found uses for them. From elevating video monitors, to using them for sitting or standing on during a model shoot, to making an extra surface space to set stuff down on, I?m sure there will be a hundred other uses!

You must get at least one.

A very strong apple box. I painted dark, but the box by itself is perfect for all studio photographers.

It's a BOX!!!!

Sturdy, nice color, doesn't break when I stand on it. Doesn't break when I stand on it holding a fish bowl. The fish bowl, however, I stood on it. Will need a new fish bowl. But won't need a new apple box.

Great photo stop!

Granted, I only bought a box for pickup, but it was a perfect box - sturdy, clean, and nice-looking. I have a feeling I'll be using this apple box in some of my future shoots.

Needs Some Improvement

These apple boxes are basically well built. There are few things that need to done. The edges and corners need to be rounded-off. The boxes need to painted a neutral gray. Other than those two isses the boxes work fine.

Excellent product that will see a lot of use on the years to come.

Over the years, Apple Boxes have proven to be indispensable tools in both studio and on-set environments. These versatile pieces of equipment are perfect for a multitude of tasks, such as propping, leveling, and even providing a convenient seat or stand. Our Half Apple Box, measuring 12x4x20 inches, is a testament to this versatility.

Constructed from high-quality, durable wood, this sturdy box is designed to withstand the rigors of a busy set or studio. Its robust design is supported in the center, ensuring dimensional accuracy and reliability under load. This makes it an ideal choice for holding low angle lighting fixtures when Wall Plates are nailed to them, among many other uses.

The Half Apple Box is equivalent to two 1/4 Apples or eight 1/8 Apples (pancake), offering flexibility in terms of elevation. It's also a great space-saving solution, as it occupies significantly less space than a Full Apple Box, while still providing the same functionality.

In addition to traditional Apple Boxes, we also offer Basso Blocks. These innovative blocks feature a unique design that allows for easy stacking, providing the same elevating ability as Apple Boxes while taking up 66% less space. A full set of Basso Blocks is equivalent to twenty-four 1/4 Apples, making them a compact yet powerful alternative.

Whether you're looking to store, transport, prop, level, or elevate, the Half Apple Box is a reliable and high-quality choice that delivers on all fronts. Its large capacity and durable construction make it a versatile addition to any set or studio.
