Smead SuperTab Poly Plastic File Folders for Documents, Set of 18 Plastic Folders, 1/3-Cut Tabs, File Folders Letter Size, Assorted Bright Colors, Office Supplies, School Supplies (10515)

Seventy-five years in school (and they put me on the day shift) has given me strong, probably eccentric, preferences about filing. I color code everything. (A malicious student once nearly ruined my semester by stealing all my big red paperclips.) I use ring binders for current work, file folders inside hanging folders for papers I need frequently, and four years' of records filed and hung in plastic file crates with plywood tops I upholstered to match my office. Necessarily, I reuse paper folders, put new labels over old, turn folders backwards and eventually inside out, etc. When I have only five colors I have to get distractingly creative about my color codes. Paper folders wear out quickly, curl at the corners, crease in unattractive places, and inevitably two colors wear out before the others, leaving, depending on your narrative, either a surplus of three or a deficiency of two. IN CONTRAST, these plastic folders, which I searched for after discovering a few odd ones at a dollar store, are strong, lightweight, translucent, slippery where paper frays, and can be bathed if I leave a ring of coffee or salted caramel ice cream on them--but I probably wouldn't, because the colors are so citrus-y and juicy that they almost satisfy the need for real food. I like them so much I'd buy more if they weren't pricey, but I suppose if you're arriving instead of leaving, you could think of them as an investment, because you won't have to replace them every fall.

Not easily damaged and love the color assortment.

Good quality. Great colors. Only down side I see, the darker colors need a label to write on. But I still love them

Quite satisfied with these. Was worried they might be flimsy for what I need however, I am very pleased, especially since I’m pulling certain folders in and out of a drawer on a daily basis, I will order again.

Allows removal and changing of labels.

I bought these for my office as I have a desk top file holder and I wanted folders that weren’t an eye sore. They are durable and colorful however they aren’t quite as bright as the advertisement photo. I wanted something almost neon or “hot” colors and they are slightly darker than imagined. I will be keeping however and am excited to use them. I have white stickers to put on them to label and as a bonus, the sticker come off the plastic very easily.

Plastic and different colors. I need for holding all the parts I buy for vehicles but I also see the value of keeping a file like this on a door for other major items like a furnace., water heater, washer, dryer, dishwasher, refrig, range as well as where you last bought a part for the item. I would rather use this system of hanging this on the back of a door (includes three hangars) than stuffing papers in a file cabinet. This is much easier to just go to the file color and put the latest paper (part, repair, guarantee, date purchased and where. Easy to "Cull" obsolete papers from a "replaced " appliance.

Can use them over and over and they never wear out
