Fits 3-ring binder
Fits a 3ring binder. Hopefully they changed the adhesive for the label. It would not come off.

Very disappointed!
Once you put the hanging files and folders in the box, there is no room for the folder tabs! The hanging file slot was not positioned low enough in the box. Therefore, all of the file folder tabs are bent over and smashed down. I will be returning these once the stores open again!!

Poor Quality – Not Like Before
We’ve purchased these totes before, but the quality has gone downhill. The plastic feels flimsy and much cheaper than previous ones we’ve ordered. The lids don’t stay closed properly, which makes them unreliable for storage. Very disappointed with this purchase.

a bit flimsy
I purchased these from a store. I do not recommend them for transporting files. They're too lightweight and the latches are too weak to safely carry a heavy load. But they serve my purpose well, which is to store light seasonal clothing items like scarves and gloves at the back of a closet shelf, easily visible through the clear plastic.

Nice Container - Latch Weak
I've bought containers like this before. These containers are good, but the lid doesn't latch tight. I've had times when it doesn't latch at all, so stuff ended up falling out of the containers. I hope they will work for my purpose of transporting supplies to and from meetings.

Plastic totes
The totes were exactly what we were looking for. However, one tote was damaged in shipping, and can’t find any method of reporting and requesting a replacement tote.

Great Storage Boxes
I use these boxes not only for files but for many different types storage. They are pretty sturdy. Although I have occasionally had a lid crack, they are still deserving of 5 stars. A really great product and an excellent value!

It would have been better if they had latch lock that snaps over lid for security.

I expected them to snap shut - they don't
I really was expecting them to snap shut but they don't. Still a good filing box, but the lid is very disappointing.

Damaged items
Two of the plastic file boxes and three of the coverswere cracked and unuseable. Shipping box did not appear damaged. There must be a better way to ship these items.

works well
Works very nicely with hanging folders. The only issue is that there isn't a lot of room for tabs that stick up when you put the cover on. Overall very nice though.

Good In-Store Purchase
Got 4 a few months ago and they are sturdy and great. They came in 4 individual boxes delivered on the Staples truck. Reordered and they shipped 4 stacked in one box and 3 were broken. Exchanged and received 2 more broken boxes. I may buy again next time I’m in the store but I would definitely not buy online.

One was busted into about 12 pieces on arrival
I ordered 12.. one was busted on arrival. The box labels clearly state not to drop and they are very fragile.. not sure if they will actually be good to keep files in but we will see.

Plastic file boxes
They are a good size, able to move around when full. They are very fragile so you have to be very careful. 3 boxes plus 1 lid was broken but customer service was great and all is good. Thank you. I will be ordering more if needed.
