Sturdy Storage, Better than the traditionalThe are a stronger, sturdier solution to the traditional cardboard banker boxes. The low-profile handles allow for easy carry and moving around. The grove in the lid aligns well with the footing on the box so that they don't slip around. And... if you are storing this in a place that may be exposed to water (basement), they are effectively water-survivors, unlike the cardboard solution. These boxes are well worth the small investment for paperwork that needs to be kept.

Perfect for My NeedsThis clear file box ended up being exactly the right size for a number of 3-ring binders & other office materials I needed to store after downsizing. The box will keep the binders corralled in one place & dust-free, but at the same time easily-accessible for when I need them. Not as weighty as some boxes either. While I normally like plastic storage to be fairly-sturdy [if it's not, it often doesn't last too long] in this case, the box will not be lugged around or even accessed every day so the lighter weight is just fine. As was the lighter price. Would definitely purchase another if more are needed in the future.

Best to GoodI bought this box awhile ago when it was amazingly sturdy. I just bought another box and I realized they fixed the corners so the files can go all the way to front and back which is great. However I did notice that the new top does not shut as nicely as the original one that I bought. I'd buy it again because I like it but I wish they would revert back to the old top since it seemed to close tightly and with more confidence.

Not so greatI found this box to be much less sturdy than I expected it to be. I already have a similar one, but needed a couple more expecting it to be as well made. I paid almost half for the other one than I did for these also. I should paid closer attention before I ordered because I also thought I would have a latching top, as does my other one. Disappointing!

4/5 not badThere isn't much to a file tote box, so when the minimal things aren't great, it's a downer. Example, the lid could be tighter. I have filled the box and paper is heavy, so when you lift the box, sometimes one side will pop off.
Also, the description says for legal size paper as well, but that's only if you don't mind them being angled, as that's the only way they fit.
The space to hang the files is great and sturdy.
Other than the said notes, great product and good size for storage.

Love it!It was heavily discounted because the top was missing, as a teacher, this is all I needed! I file student work in it, and the students check their file for their work. Love it. The files just glide forwards and backwards, unlike the crate I was using before. Thanks!

Re-org a life's papers projectThe folder files and hanging folders where a good buy. Only item that would have been preferred that was not available were locking lids f or the folder files. Since the papers are keepers, I would have liked more security from water, et. al. There was no alternative since the locking containers have no facility for the folders.

Perfect for filing and storing (and working)I have about 10 of these, at least, for items I've filed away and things I'm working on. The lid fits snugly. I'm not worried about moisture in the basement. They stack perfectly without slipping. And can be used legal or letter paper length. I'm sure I'll be getting more.

Great ValueI purchased a bulk pack of (6) of these perfectly sized hanging file totes. The quality was great, they are easy to move with the built in hand holds, they hold hanging folders and they're made in the USA, what could be better than that?

a must haveBetween my boyfriend and I we have accumulated 4 of these over the last few years to contain all of our important papers. Lovelovelove that they are stackable. They are lightweight but they can get heavy because they fit quite a lot of files. Being translucent, it is easy to spot the right file if you use colorful folders.

A real money saver!These boxes are a real money saver compared to the cardboard bankers boxes. They're designed for files, but you can 'standardize' your storage using these boxes. They will fit toys, clothes, shoes, craft supplies and more! You could use these as the one-size storage box you buy for your home or office because then all the boxes stack together nicely.

Highly Recommend!!I picked up a couple of these in-store during the office sale and was incredibly impressed. They are very sturdy, the lids fit well, and they are simply fantastic for storing hanging files. The files actually fit (and hang on little side rails making them easy to access and use in the box as well), unlike cardboard banker's boxes whose lids never fit well when packed with hanging files. Wound up buying a bunch more online to get rid of a bunch of cardboard boxes in the garage.
Since the tote is only 10.25” tall, you could only store the sheets flat. A more practical container for 12x12 paper is SKU 10022759. It looks like a great product but I don’t have firsthand experience with it.

DIfference in the size between description and an aswered question
An answer to another question said the box's interior dimensions were 14-3/4" x 11-7/8" x 10-1/4" tall. The description says that the box is 18-1/8" x 13-7/8" x 11-1/4" h.Which is correct? I'm interested because the description says it's 18-1/8". I don't want it if it's 14-3/4". SKU#: 10013806
Asked by: Vfore
The dimensions listed on the product are the outermost measurement, the interior dimensions you saw would be the inside bottom of the box.

Can A4 files be used in this organizer?
Asked by: JimenaG
The larger file box would be too large to acommodate A4 file folders. If you're storing A4-sized documents, you could use letter- or legal-sized folders in the smaller size with the A4 documents inside.
