It could be done with yellow chests with filter, but also buffer chests, right?

What are the drawbacks of each version?

I thought buffer chests would be perfect but then I realized that they require the inserter from the yellow belt assembler to have a circuit condition. Is there an even easier way?

Careful, if you dont set a filter the chest could get filled with unwanted garbage potentially filling all slots and blocking belts from going in.

Bots also prefer filtered chests so filtering will prevent belts from ending up in other storage boxes
