These seem to be the only 4 pack available on Staples and they are sold at a good price. They seem sturdy. We are using them for file storage. We stick a "Label of Contents" on 2 sides which may be necessary if you're storing files like we are. They can be stacked and seem to hold a bit of weight when stacked 8 high but it's probably safer to stack 4 high. There's always an issue with lids cracking no matter the weight but if you reinforce with good heavy duty tape the second you see a crack the lids seems to hold up again.

I purchased these from a store. I do not recommend them for transporting files. They're too lightweight and the latches are too weak to safely carry a heavy load. But they serve my purpose well which is to store light seasonal clothing items like scarves and gloves at the back of a closet shelf easily visible through the clear plastic.
Decent low-cost file containers. They are brittle and crack easily if loaded unevenly during stacking. Stackable three high then they need side-to-side support to prevent wobbling. Not durable for continuously moving around a lot of heavy files. One lid came cracked on delivery.
