Staples carries many items that most stores don't.
When I couldn't find small items carried in their home office section, I got help from the young man up front. He gave me perfect instructions. I was so pleased because I had shopped at several different stores and couldn't find the right size.

Too flimsy
The construction of this product is very flimsy causing it not to hold it's shape when handled. Any pressure distorts it's shape which often times causes the latch for the lid to release

Lid tends to not fully shut
Just have to make sure your cards are pushed backwards. Spacing on bottom separator might be off.

You’re seriously asking me if how it went with purchasing an index card file and whether I like it or not???

Small Index Card File
These boxes are great for holding small paper items to include index cards and notes on small pads.

My favorite flash card!
I love the thickness of these cards. I switched over to these because others are so thin, you can see the writing on the other side. I’d recommend these!!

Acceptable, but plastic hinges are not durable
This is the third card file that I have bought of this type. The quality is acceptable, but the plastic hinges are not durable. My recent purchase was to replace a similar box whose hinges had broken. (I will say, however, that the box that I replaced I had had for about four years.) If Staples offered a higher quality 3X5 card file, I would buy it; but this is the ...

The material and construction is cheap. Lid does not function as well as it could. Not durable.

3x5 Card File
Not expensive, and not particularly well made, but they do keep the cards from falling all over the floor.

Really good storage for flash cards
My son picked this out for his government class flash cards. It seems to hold about 3 50ct packs of cards and keeps them protected in his backpack for school. The lid does pop open from time to time if his backpack is smashed, but it's about what we expected. It keeps his cards from getting destroyed and that's what we needed!

Plastic good but wooden better
Would have preferred a wooden box over plastic.

Staples 3' x 5' Index Card File
The index cards fit nicely in this card file holder. It is very sturdy for storage of your index cards.
