Safco Products 3088 Wire Roll File, 24 Compartment, White

Great product. Ordered these for two of my employees who have a large quantity of maps to contend with. They seem to like these much better than the type (storage) I've ordered in the past. I've decided to suggest to our Procurement dept., that we order an additional 50-75 more for the other employees.

Very poor quality, especially for the price. Nearly useless without some modification, not sure if it will last more than a few months. We received our roll file today, and we're very disappointed in both the quality of the materials and elements of the design. We're storing rolls of plastic gel used for theater lighting, and the entire weight of the file, when filled, is 58 lbs. We didn't weigh the file without the gels and didn't want to unload after it was already organized, but the description of the item says it weighs 14 lbs, hence we must have loaded it with 44 lbs of materials. Regarding the quality of the materials, we noticed three general problems: 1. The "heavy gauge steel rod" is quite flimsy; 2. The clips used to secure the pieces together are both flimsy and poorly designed; 3. The wheels do not roll freely. 1. What do I mean by "flimsy" rods? Once assembled and without anything loaded, rolling the file causes the legs with the wheels to bend and bow. That's flimsy! 2. The clips each snap onto two adjoining rods, attempting to hold them together. They are not very strong pieces of metal, but even if they were they do not completely encircle the rods and easily pop off under the slightest torqueing. 3. The wheels do not actually roll, for the most part. Mostly, they just drag and slide as you move the cart. We kept it! Yes, you may be surprised, but after spending so much time putting it together and organizing our gels, we just didn't want to pull it all back apart and get it back into its box. We did adjust the design a bit: We mounted the back of the file two rods lower so that it would support the rear wheels better. Without this adjustment, those rods would have bent and broken within weeks if not days. We also used some stiff electrical wire to lash and hold the joints. Clips were popping off constantly during this procedure, and without it the cart would have been in pieces -- probably the first time it was being used by a less than extremely gentle lighting person. It was no surprise to see that this product was made in China. It epitomizes all that seems wrong with products coming out of that country, and I suggest that anyone else either find a much better quality item or figure out a way to build/rig up their own.

This is way over priced for the quality and construction. The value i estimate is about $30 worth of materials. They give you small “clamps” to attach all the wire grid panels with. The clamps DO NOT CLAMP or PROPERLY hold the grid panels together. You need to order zip ties to secure this design. If the box was not recycled and the cart not needed tomorrow, I would send it back. The only stable feature is the 4 wheels that attached with a screw and nut. Congrats to the manufacture for they profit they earned on my purchase.

Easy to put together, clasps do not stay in place, but does the job, fits several sizes and easy to move them around

If I'd paid full price for this rack, I'd be very upset. The assembly clips are a joke. I gave up and completed the assembly with zip ties and white electrical tape. It does it's job and looks better than the cardboard box I used to keep my print rolls in. Just don't overload it with too many heavy rolls or the legs might buckle. The bottom row is almost too deep for the 24" rolls we use in the office.

Does not assemble as it should. The small clips provided are too small and difficult to snap into place. Once I got the bottom clips secured, one kept popping off. Trying to clip the sides together was impossible due to the sides not being tightly lined up and the very small clips.

This file came recommended by a friend, but it arrived without the screws to attach the casters. Annoying!

Actually bought this to hold rolls of wrapping paper. My wife always complained about the storage bag we used for wrapping paper, it was heavy and hard for her to wrestle out of the closet. Ths is great, it holds the same amount of rolls, and just rolls out of the closet. The only negative i'd say is the clips holding the sides together aren't the sturdiest, I may replace them with 1/4 " hose clamps if they don't stay clipped, but so far they are holding together.
