We have two OL’s - I think we got the 1st one in 2011 or 2012 and then a second shortly thereafter. We keep debating if we should get a third one. They do take up a fair amount of space but we stay in larger rooms, so it’s not an issue.
We don’t use ours to decrease the amount of baggage we bring but instead use ours to have “our stuff” around and special “vacation only” items. Just as a sampler of what we store = Nespresso with pods, 2 Disney themed throw blankets, tote bag for the pool, bathrobe, slippers, coffee mugs, pool mugs, etched wine glasses, etched tumblers, etched highball glasses, ice bucket, cutting boards, pizza cutter, paring knife, salt and pepper shakers, a few
DVC pull overs/sweatshirts, a few DVC polos, first aid kit, magic bands, laundry baskets (collapsible), dishwasher pods, laundry pods, extra charging cables, left over non perishables like bottled water
I think an underappreciated use of the OL (at least when I see threads like this) is their utility in storing adult beverages. We keep a 1.5 L bottle of vodka in there along with smaller bottles of cognac and gin.
