IRIS USA File Box File Organizer w/ Hinged Split Latching Lid for Letter/Legal File, Water Resistant Document Box, BPA-Free, Plastic Storage Bin Tote Organizer, Stackable, Nestable, Pearl 44 Qt. 5Pack

These are made extremely well and work as intended. They are $ more than the standard cardboard file boxes but well worth it. You can stack multiple boxes with no issue. Will continue to purchase as needed.

After a pipe burst in my basement, I replaced my old storage bins with these. They are sturdy, and I expect that they will be durable. Fortunately, I haven’t had another pipe burst, so I don’t know if they are waterproof, but they should keep out water and bugs.During shipping, a few of the lids broke (I bought many in various sizes). Due to my immediate need, I chose to tape them and did not contact the seller, so I can’t speak to the seller’s responsiveness. They were shipped on time.Overall, I’m pleased and will purchase some for my college student.

I purchased a set of these years ago. I had to search to find them again now. These are Iris latching handles plastic file boxes. They nest on top of one another. They are translucent, so I put post it notes on the inside facing out as labels. The handles are rounded and comfortable for lifting when they are heavy and full, and the handles latch to keep the top secured. I broke a handle in a move and recently asked Iris if they sell replacement handles. No response yet but I'm hopeful. These are a good value for a set of 4. I love these file boxes. They have runners along each edge for hanging files, either letter or legal sized paper.

Now that I've been using these since 2019, I've formed an opinion:They work for immediate use and not long term. I open it up every few months and it smells musty. Even here in a dry climate with new documents less than a year old. They're made of reasonably sturdy plastic. Not the kind you'll build a castle out of but you can stack them a few boxes high when full. I still feel a bit uncomfortable at that though. With the seal: it's a basic foam seal, not a rubber based one so not designed to last a long time. I wish I had known. The box itself does have channels all the way around to fit standard legal and letter hanging files which also means if you want to exclude those and just set file folders in, yes! Even with the hanging folder label tabs they fit. My issue: the clamps don't always stay locked down. I know I've clicked them into place and not overpacked the box but I go back and "pop" they're off without a chance of anyone wanting to steal my sourdough bread recipe.If you are buying this for precious documents, I probably would not. I do keep boxes with various things for a limited time. These boxes I have found are bad for paper products just like my security safe. Locking in humidity, mold spores and who knows what else from the air at the time of opening can mean damage to whatever is inside the box. For my safe at least the company had the sense to say "Hey, open your safe regularly for humidity and put some carbon/silica here for your stored items..." This box, not so much. I do have photos from my childhood and even from my Great Grandma. I would never, ever, EVER, dare store them in this product. I've scanned my precious photos and documents in, please do yours.

These are weak inferior containers. They arrived broken and were not able to be returned and I was not granted a refund. I will never order this poor quality product again. The misrepresent the product's structural integrity and refuse to return my purchase price by asking me to return the product that broke apart and was discarded after I sent a photo to document the condition on arrival.

I downsized everything...and just kept my important papers that were absolutely needed...and I purchased these FILE FOLDER CONTAINERS to go under my 18" platform bed! They are perfect. All these need to keep files....but not need to access files are in a watertight container that has great lids and stack so easily if needed. Excellent item...and they cost a bit more than some file folder containers and ARE WORTH IT...much studied, handles make it easy to carry and they will not have any moisture or dust ...and these containers are not going to break easily....really well made.

Sturdy box, but the latches on the lid are very easily broken. The latch is held in the box with a small round hinge pin (nub- or peg- or dowel-like part) on each side of the black latch piece that snaps into the 4 corners, and those hinge pins break VERY easily. Bought 8 of these boxes and nearly half of them had broken lid latches when they arrived making them useless for real moisture protection in storage which was my primary concern. As the remaining usable boxes were being packed, a few more of the latches broke when slightly too much force was applied while working quickly.I would not recommend this product unless the lid latching is not important to you.The boxes that didn't have broken latches were easy to use, sturdy but lightweight and feel like they're made of heavy duty plastic. If the latches weren't so easily broken, or if they were replaceable, or if you could fix them by melting them back together (which I attempted without success) these would be great. But that's not the case, so I do not recommend this product.

Very sturdy, and fits hanging files perfectly. The latch top ensures a tight seal. Highly recommend.
