Waste of Money
The lid clasps disconnect when you carry it. Only good for very light weight. The lid that closes over the storage area fell off and was lost forever. Even with that in place there is only enough space to carry a small handful of "office" supplies (paper clips rubber bands etc.)

Fine product
I purchased these for storage in my classroom. They are much sturdier and easier to carry than the previous system I was using for storage.

High quality storage & file box
I like the storage on the lid. Using a clear plastic over those compartments would make it even better.

Perfect for Teachers
This Bankers Box is perfect for teachers to bring their files home to write report cards and IEPs or bring to your meetings. I love the handle on the top for easy carrying. It's light weight and holds a large class sized files. Excellent value for your dollar.

Great Small File Box
Great for keeping current important papers/forms/certificates handy. Good seal and the top has a little box for a couple of pen/pencils, clips etc. Don't get lost in details or paperwork, get organized with one or more of these file boxes.

Poor latch design - broke 1st day
Latch design is very poor and is flimsy. Top storage is design could be better too as it doesn't fit post-it note. The latch broke on the 1st day thus it's no longer portable.

Durable Plastic File Box
Love this little box so much, I purchased 2. Took the lid off of one to store cables and tech supplies while I'm on the road for work. Convenient, strong and like the extra storage compartment on the lid.

Perfect Traveling File Box
Selected this box over a store brand and I am very happy I did. Not only is it super durable but it can hold about 30 files comfortably which was perfect for what I needed it for (real estate). 10/10 recommend!

Great For Document organzing
Im in college and I needed to start organizing all my important personal documents and information. Previously, I had all my important things in envelopes or shoe boxes, but my Mom told me she would help me consolidate. We bought this box and it will be perfect because it's small and portable.

Great Box for our needs
I needed a box to organize registration materials for a camp I am running. It needed to have the capacity for hanging file folders and also be portable, so the handle is perfect. It seems sturdy, and I also loved the size. It was smaller than some of the others...I didn't need a bunch of extra room, so I was happy to find a box a little on the smaller side. Id love it i...

I love these portable storage boxes
I use these for my clients offices to store documents until I pick up. They are a great value and have stood the test of time for many years. I wish they came in a half size (less records) but that's my only negative. The plastic is sturdy, the lid hinges are excellent, and it locks shut easily.
