handles need reinforcement once full

easy to assemble and great size. Good area of place to show contents. Handles need to be stronger. Good for the money and for purpose. For long term storage is ok.
I like the design I wish the box itself was made of a more industrial strength material if you try to stack them five high over a long period of time they will buckle even thou they say they will hold a lot of weight...they break down over several months in dry storage but they are cheaper than 10 plastic crates...
I needed something to keep files upright and block light. I put the documents inside vented plastic totes for more-stable stacks and to save them from upper-floor leaks or fire sprinklers. The cardboard boxes that were glued straight fit well in the plastic totes. Those that were glued skewed on some corners couldn't sit flat in the plastic totes so I'll end up with bent corners and possibly damaged documents.
This is great for storing things that you will need to carry later - such as xmas decorations - around the house. They are small enough to be easily carried yet strong enough to be filled full.
