I love these boxes. I use them at home and at work. The price isn't that bad especially when you use a coupon or apply rewards. Love the rewards program.
I have recently purchased these for storage of paperwork. The quality of this box is fair for being the economy line. They are a bit confusing to put together and I did alter the sides of the box in order to assemble it properly. The quantity pack of 10 that I purchased were also hard to carry in and out of the store. They were held by a single strap and hard to carry and have the potential of getting corners dinged and dirty.. If they were reduced and in shrink wrap that would be a whole lot easier. Would give this product a 5 out of 10.
We use these boxes as a regular to file and store our information from previous periods and work files. They stand up to the hauling and years of storage in our file room. We are able to stack them on top of each without any issues.
I got these to store smaller boxes of collectibles and crafts as well as file folders. The material is a bit thin the perforations a bit hard to rip apart. Once the box is put together it seems sturdy enough. I have only used it to store boxes of smaller items. I have not tried to fill it with files yet. I don't think the bottom will fall out but I don't think these will stand up to a lot of moving files in and out of them. For office use where there will be a lot of use I would get heavier ones.
They are "strong enough" and practical to carry just about anything. We use them for everything from a Dog toy box in the office cleaning supply storage and of course inactive files.
