Lorell Vertical File System, 13-1/8 x 4-1/4 x 14-3/4 Inches, 3-Pack, Smoke

This file is just as pictured, perhaps slightly better than the picture. It would have been an elegant filing solution, if only it had arrived in tact. I ordered this item three times. It arrived damaged each time. After the 2nd shipment, I spoke to someone at Amazon, hoping that the 3rd shipment would arrive undamaged. The rep contacted shipping while on the phone with me, so I had high hopes. The third shipment arrived cracked, with a hole in it, and with one of the hanging notches broken off. I gave up. Maybe I can find this file at my local Staples.

It does work as intended, but not perfectly. There are studs on the back of each piece that lock into the piece about it, locking them together into one unit for hanging. The studs are weak. Two arrived broken (the studs, not the file holders). With a bit of glue I was able to secure the 3 pieces together. I'm sure the glue will hold much better than the studs would have, but they are now one permanent unit and no longer can be separated.

These vertical files come three to a box as pictured (one stacked inside the other). Each vertical file has two plastic pieces on them that enable the files to be hooked into one other. When we opened the boxes and took out the files, each of these plastic pieces were broken off so that the files can not be fit together. In order for them to be stacked vertical as seen, without those plastic pieces that are meant to connect the files, one is left to attach each file to the wall by drilling screws into the wall with each file separately. I would not recommend this product to anyone. The company packages them in such a way that they are damaged as soon as they are packaged. Amazon was nice enough to credit me even though the boxes had been thrown away and I was unable to return them. I will look for a different manufacturer.

one of mine was broken but it was so cheap I didnt care, so I used the two- but don't put them where people could run into them because they are FRAGILE!But if you put them out of the way they are great! Perfect for my file holding needs!

Great size. I actually installed 12 of these (4 packs of 3) and they have held up very well over the past month with relatively heavy use (high school kids storing drumline equipment). However, one did break during installation. Just be careful not to overtighten the screws and they'll work great.

As far as the use of this product, I believe it is okay. However, do not rely on the adhesive strips supplied with this product to attach to a wall or door - mine had one letter in it and after about 4 days, fell off the door and broke, rendering it useless.In case you're thinking the door was dirty - it wasn't. It's a brand new, freshly painted door which was cleaned properly with a bit of alcohol before sticking the file holder to the door.

The 3 pieces are identical and meant to be used stacked together as one. 2 screws are included to mount the top piece, and the other pieces hang on one after another on their molded studs. The studs can break off if too much weight is put on or incorrectly handled at mounting time.I do not hang them together. Rather, I use each one separately and they make excellent holders to keep owner manuals next to each item.

This comes as three separate portions that connect via plastic pegs in the back. Only the top one will be screwed into the wall. The pegs that connect were also broken on one, but I just used it on the top.

They are good should have came with more screws
