A BOX YOU CAN LOVE!
on December 12, 2012
Posted by: Paula K.
Had to get my "stuff" together without having to use 20 different sized boxes from the liquor store. These puppies really did the trick! They stack up and down side to side and back to back without any wasted space or fear of one collapsing on the other. I haven't been this organized since . . . well since the day I finally cleaned out my sock drawer. I have tons of photos in little boxes that fit beautifully into these boxes. I've reams of old papers that I can't bring myself to shred. Plus I have a bunch of books (coloring comic and whatever) that I'll never get into again but I really want my grandchildren to see when I'm gone. They all fit! And that's the truth!
These boxes are great for light weight items and liberal amounts of files. I purchased them to organize Christmas items and love the space on both ends of the boxes to label the contents. Assembly is a quick but have patience with the first one if you have never put these boxes together in the past. At $16+ dollars for a package of 10 the price cannot be matched. These boxes are not well-suited for heavy items or condensed amounts of files unless they are simply being used for storage. Another Staples great buy!
The boxes can be used for a wide variety of applications. Styled so that it can be used for both legal and letter makes it a very versatile product. It also can be used to pack and organize other things such as books or collectibles in an easy to carry size (not too heavy). It can be used to store past tax return information with printing on the side so that you can put a description of what is in the box without having to go thru multiple boxes to find what you are looking for. It is easy to put together and very sturdy with a double layered bottom that prevents the bottom from falling out when the box is lifted.
I have bought many of these over the years and the quality has gone down somewhat. Still like the uniformity in size and ease of use. I also like being able to break them down for storage and future use. A best buy when they are on sale. Hard to find sometimes.
