Pendaflex Portable Desktop File, Side Handles, Hanging File Folders, Tabs & Inserts, Letter Size, 9-1/2 x 12-3/16 x 6 Inches, Black (23013)

I really like these desktop file bins for organizing my hanging files. Whenever I tried the bar-type contraptions for converting a file drawer to use hanging files, they would end up bending and warping. These bins work much better to support the hanging files! They are the perfect size and make organizing file drawers a breeze. I can take them in and out of the drawer easily if I just want to work on one section of my filing at a time – and sit at my desk as I work instead of standing and standing (and standing some more!) in front of the file cabinet. They don't fit in my file drawer with the long side facing frontward. I have to put them in sideways: I can fit four of them in each drawer that way. It bothered me until I discovered a hidden advantage! It's much easier to access a file drawer from the side then it is from the front. I always drop a book or a pack of labels or something between the two bins in the front and the two bins in the back to keep about half an inch or so of space between them. Otherwise the hanging files tend to get hooked onto the wrong bins, which makes it hard to get either a bin or an individual file out of the drawer. I usually purchase these bins one or two at a time, as I make progress on my filing project. I also keep a bin on my desk for active projects and handling mail, a couple of bins with my cookbooks to hold recipe pamphlets, and a bunch more that I stand up on end on my bookshelves to hold current magazines, pocket folders, thin craft-work books, and so on. I have recommended them to family members who use them and have also given them as gifts to friends. Although I will be buying my own hanging folders (I would like them to be colorful, not just color-coded) the bins did come with hanging folders to get me started. These fit the bill in so many ways!

This is a good quality, sturdy file organizer! I use these in my classroom and I stuff them full of hanging files. It was nice that this came with a few hanging files already too. This is the perfect size. It doesn’t take up a lot of room and I can fit 5 of them easily on my book shelf!

This totally works for my 8 year old. I make sure weekly spelling flash cards are updated every week and I've got a white board which he has to have for math zooms and his dry erase markers in a plastic pool wine glass. Ge loves it because usually his teacher has to wait becausealmost none of the kids are prepared with white boards and dry erase markers... I actually purchased this for me and I'm going to order just the plastic bin for me. I might order two. For $20 bucks you get a nice sturdy compartment to keep everything organized and way more than enough manilla folders but I will probably find my green hanging folders elsewhere because I think I need triple the amount that's provided the $20 bundle. Still not bad. I love this set up for my 2nd grader!

This is not the type of product you gush over and write a 1000 word synopsis. It is a functional file holder. It was used to keep track of paperwork for a simple court case, and it was fine.

These units are great! They are thick plastic, sturdy, easy to handle, work very well with hanging files and file folders. Had purchased a lower priced item but returned those and bought these instead. I have now purchased 8 of these units, for myself and a family member. Based on the quality, I expect these will last for years. Am very happy with this product. Was well worth the additional cost.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: The size, shape, and weight were right for me. Good price.

Great for storing/filing in a smaller space

Fits in the drawer perfectly so I can hang my pentaflex files in it

Very helpful

Es funcional mucha capacidad y se ve bien con todas las decoraciones.

Perfect!

Exactly what I was looking for !

All Pendaflex products are excellent quality.
