Purchased the generic brand to save money compared to the Bankers Box brand. Some lids were missing tabs so the edges came undone. Plus the pre-perforated cuts must have been done with a rusty old butter knife. I ended up with deformed boxes. I’ll never purchase a generic brand from Staples again.
These boxes are indeed heavy duty. The weakest link is the top but even there it has a flap to lock into the handle holes for added stability. These are my go-to banker boxes now.
These boxes are just the right size for moving household items in a move. I packed them with books magazines files kitchen tools laundry and kitchen cleansers; you name it I packed it. I have been using this brand of boxes for the last 10 years and highly recommend it. The boxes age and warp over time so I would suggest a heavier quality box if you plan to use these for storage beyond 8-10 years.
