The front latch wasn't securely attached to the case--the two pegs on the back side of the latch weren't secured to the case from the inside--but I don't know if there was supposed to be some kind of retaining clips or something else. The pegs were far enough apart so some "purchase" clips could've been used to keep the latch secured but all I did was score the back of the latch and the case and then used super glue to secure it. As added protection I put a drop of super glue on the pegs on the inside of the case to ensure they couldn't be pulled back through. It's a minor complaint but this is what kept me from giving five stars.
I liked the other ones I purchased some time ago. They were sturdy. These are not good quality. I don’t recommend. I purchased 3 online and 1 came broken in transit before getting in my home. Save your money not good.
It looks like it would be a good way to carry files around but..... The sides fall so far open my files were in danger of falling out. It needs some way to limit how far it opens on the pleated sides. Very disappointed.
