These folders are better than the branded product not only because they are less expensive but they seem to hold up better under frequent every day use.
I always buy my manila file folders at Staples this time I bought the colored ones for a change. This has helped my organizing tremendously and I never would have thought to get colored folders if they weren't placed right next to the manila folders...great merchandising idea. I buy all my office supplies at Staples because they have such a variety of useful items it's one stop shopping for me...convenient & great items at great prices. I'm still an old fashioned print copy hard files person so file folders from Staples is an office Staple for me!
We've been using colored folders in our office for years and we've tried many different colors but always seem to come back to the yellow folders. The other colors are too dark and some of the colors rub off sometimes on other items. . The yellow folders make them easier to find and locate. When writing names on the tabs (which we have to do) the yellow folders/tabs seems to allow the writing to show clearer and brighter. The folders are a good sturdy quality and we will be ordering them again next year.
Such a simple product... we use them everyday without a second thought. Yet try and get through a day without them. These from Staples are simple functional durable and inexpensive.
