Tape not needed, brightens my day

Maybe it's me. While the tape doesn't seem to stick to the box properly for very long, it does adhere remarkably well to various parts of the anatomy, requiring a painful removal procedure. These tapeless boxes are the perfect solution. Movers love them for the handles. Assembly is quick and (almost) foolproof. Moving is a pain and sometimes a trauma. They are filming a drama of the ordeal.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • So-so

Great boxes. My roommates made fun of me.

Excellent boxes. My roommates made fun of me for buying "fancy, expensive" boxes online instead of scouring local stores for used and free boxes. However, once they saw how strong the boxes were, how easy they were to stack, and how nice they were to carry around, the teasing stopped and they started asking for credit. I bet they will last (although I hope I don't have to move again any time soon).

Pros
  • New in my collection
Cons
  • too blunt

Bank drawers NOT in stationery

These drawers are thin compared to original bank drawers. Almost all of them had the entire side of the box with the handle bent when I tried to carefully separate the box along the perforations. You don't need a box cutter to assemble these boxes. The boxes bend at the sides when you pack them and then deform even more when you stack them on top of each other. I end up having to tape them all together and the whole point was to have the boxes with removable lids so their contents could beโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • Some flaws

Sturdy for use when moving house

When I received the box it was open and a lid was missing. tape if not better. Definitely better than what is sold in the home store. I prefer to use small and medium than large. Why, because I pack them heavy. And it's hard to carry with a bad back. Big ones are good for blankets, things like towels. Although I'm still packing in a medicine box. Cover or all in one makes no difference to me. Of course, you should stack heavy loads on the bottom and light ones on top to avoid crushing them.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Not as good as advertised

Reliable, Durable, Best in Class Stationery Storage

Last month I moved a 26 year old household item and junk from one house to another. It took months to sell my house and find another, so over time my packing process consisted of a series of efforts โ€” and box orders. In total I bought about 350-400 boxes of different brands, shapes and sizes. . I have found banker boxes to be the strongest and most secure. Too bad I didn't start with the bankers. I ended up with 2-3 sets of extra boxes (Bankers of course) and I'd rather use those than otherโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Handsome
Cons
  • Some Difficulties

Build quality is now lacking

I've been buying and collecting banker boxes for a long time. hundreds of them. When I started I worked with white cans from the same company. Perhaps they are produced differently than these. The mostly white boxes merge smoothly and cleanly into one another. Impressive technique indeed. These brown boxes don't. They actually have instructions telling you to pre-fold each fold. You mean business. But even with pre-folds, they just don't come together cleanly. They get crumpled and deformedโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Many fit
Cons
  • Low maintainability

I moved a few blocks and needed some quick and easy boxes to also carry in your car if you are leaving heavier items for movers. They were incredibly easy to assemble, no tape was required and it saved me tons of time. The large boxes were particularly good for taking items in my closet straight off the shelf, including hangers, and stacking them once to place in the box. Then in the new place it was easy to climb with hangers. Also, they were incredibly easy to break down and throw in the binโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Excellent Overall
Cons
  • I have doubts
