Snap-N-Store Letter File Box, Black

1) this model is 4 hanging files the extra space would help w/the over hang of the clips used 2 suspend the files.. 2) this is a BIG compliment 2 the manufacturer.. i bought 8 boxes...10 years ago..and guess what ~ still have them, they r still functional and in style.. I was jazzed when i figured out they were from the very same company..

Inexpensive but does not look inexpensive. Easy to put together. Holds an adequate amount of files. Stores easily in 12 x 12 cube storage. A decent quick fix to storing file folders / hanging file folders.

Although this box is made of cardboard, it is quite sturdy. The top edges of the box are covered with metal, to keep the sliding file folder hangers from damaging the cardboard. The snaps that hold the box together are steel and plenty strong. We have 50 hanging folders in it, with less than half of them used, and there's plenty of room left. I don't expect to disassemble the box, but it can be unsnapped and folded flat. It should be a good storage box, once the files are outdated.

The files are smart, sleek looking, modern; you can snap them or unfold them in seconds. They hold 8.5 x 11 pendaflex folders and manila folders, but the top cover is really not wide enough to securely cover the whole file box. The black color with silver trim makes them unnoticeable in a small apartment corner. So glad I found these; much better than steel bulky file drawers.

I did not realize that these boxes were even available. I may order more as they are sturdy and attractive at the same time. I find the regular cardboard boxes get dented and smashed, the lids especially. Looking forward to having these for a long time.

I bought this because my husband has taken over the drawers in our file cabinet so I needed a place to store the files I need while working from home. This box is actually pretty attractive and fits neatly on our bookcase. It's pretty big so it can store a lot of files. Probably at least 3 reams of paper wide. I have hanging files in it and the top goes nicely on top of them. The top doesn't snap shut, just sits on top, so if it were to get knocked over, your files would most likely fall out. I like that it can be easily transported so if I need to take the files to a different room or to my office, I can easily just grab the box and go. It has nice handles on the sides as well to make it easier to carry. They seem pretty strong but I don't have a ton of files in it yet so it's not too heavy.

This product is made of a shiny black material with nice silver handles, however it's not very sturdy. The cover is a little big I don't know if it's suppose to be like that. The snaps fall apart easily as well overall I just like the way it look not really the job.

This box is VERY sturdy, it's not cheapy made, it's nice and STURDY and SOLID and THICK. Love the handles, love the easy setup (just snap the bottons on both ends), the id card is nice too. The box holds ALOT of files, nice good size. The only thing I don't like about it (but VERY minor), are the flaps where the buttons are stick out a bit and the hanging files get stuck behind them, and the lid is super loose - way too long for the box and hangs over too far. But those are minor, and I'd DEF buy more of these boxes!! I jsut wish the lid was more secure and not so overly large.

Like other reviewers, I found that this is very cheap and flimsy. But mine isn't that heavy, so it's good for the price. I wouldn't put anything on top of the box because of the lid issue. Also be very careful just to use the handles to move it. I tried picking it up by the sides and it disassembled. Works for me, good value.

I purchased this one because I had purchased the one for DVDs and loved it. This one is the same great quality but the lid doesn't fit. It is a half inch to big on both ends. Disappointed
