What is the advantage of using this over folders in Windows? Is it more than the visual appearance of binders on shelves in cabinets?

In my opinion the Rack 2 filer doesn't work! There is something about the resolution of the files that is not good. I am very happy with the Scan Snap S1500 that I bought but the I had to go back to just using normal Windows folders. I get much better resolution of the text on my PDF files. When I first bought the "Hardware/software bundle" I tried to make it work. I could find anyone on the Internet who could explain the problem. I have been "burned" before on software that wasn't very good. So give up on Rack 2 Filer and use Windows folders.

the visual is a nice pluss, and its for me easier to flip through the pages when I am looking for a certain item. for a windows wiz the windows folders may work nicely if you tag your scanned items with time and date in the folder name.

Actually you can hang 2 rows letter file folders in each drawer. The HUGE amount file storage space what I really liked about this file cabinet!!

Side note: I would recommend to get gorilla glue instead of what they provide for cabinet. Overall this is a good looking file cabinet and is very sturdy. There isn't any flex in it at all but I did use better glue.

No. The baskets really are not of a quality to use a bunch either. The basket finishing is not of high quality. For what I use it for it works fine, but for high use or to try and put file folders in the basket - not a good fit. Find something else.

To be honest, we have folders from different sources but I believe the ones we bought from Avery in the past are solid colored throughout, even on the center brad area. The outside of the folders are slightly textured and look really nice. We use green and from the other answers, the folders are one solid color, not like the photos.

THere is a back. This is the very same product that Staples sells, but at a better price./ I moved from a 4 bedroom house, with a full office to a one bedroom apartment. I got rid of my file cabinets. I have 3 units mounted on the wall by my desk and computer and this way all the files I use, or need to file are in separate bins. And the black color is very attractive. Nicer than the smoked plastic others show. I also bought the magnetic strips and use them rather than a message board to hang, current newsletters and announcement of upcoming events.T hey are easy to mount. I highly recommend them.I have labeled each bin so I find what I need easily. THere is a back.

Its a CD/DVD storage binder/folder. It's a hard cover that comes with a few pages to holds discs in. each page holds 4 discs (2 on both sides). I use this folder to hold our picture discs & it works like a charm.

This is used by our church. We do have folders inside although I'm not sure they are hanging.

I used small velcro Command Strips instead of the hanger on the top (it's retractable, so I just pushed it down so it doesn't show). I put 1 command strip across the top, the bottom, and spaced 2 along each side and velcro'd it to the wall since many people will be taking forms in and out of the various folders. It makes it a little more stable, and the strips worked great!

I don't see how you could hang files from side to side with the hardware that is included. I use mine front to back files 2 rows wide per drawer. It holds a lot of file folders and the folder section of the drawer is 15" front to back. If you multiply that X4 (2 rows per drawer X 2 drawers). I would imagine you could put a free standing file rack in the drawer and use it side to side. Either way, this thing is heavy and seems to be a nice piece of furniture. Not the easiest thing I've ever assembled, but really not that bad to assemble either. Hope I was able to provide you with the advice you need to decide. I enjoy mine and use it as a makeshift desk as well. I don't see how you could hang files from side to side with the hardware that is included. I use mine front to back files 2 rows wide per drawer.

Yes, the inner folders have a 3 ring binder they are on. The folders can be added and removed from the binder.

Well I use the legal size hangers on top (which I use daily) and regular size folders on the bottom (rarely used). It is troublesome, but if you are only going to use regular size it might be easier. It is pretty sturdy. I have so many files so it is a tight fit, which makes it hard at times. I use it in my home office, I like that I can take it from room to room. I just wish it was longer so that it could accommodate my files more easily. I hope this helps.

Hi, I actually haven't used them yet, but yes, they stick up above the file folders so you can easily see the names on the tabs. Hope that helps.

It's really not that bad - there's a sliding bar across the middle which you can keep the two sides apart - or - I found a cool way to access them is to spread some of the upper files and you can access them through the top. The nice thing about them is that it's not a drawer, so everything is in the open to see. I love it - especially too because it has wheels.

Yes, I used them to hand fabric around the hanging folders and they still stack nicely. These on not for standard file folders but for hanging file folders that you would put standard folders into. You can use legal or letter size hanging folders for these. I purchase two sets and made a cubby cabinet for them. :)

Hope I can explain so its clear, the opening where the CD/DVD slides down into is a plastic "U" shape covering insert but because they are double sided holders, the hole is NOT straight thru each sleeve if you are thinking of hanging them or placing in a binder. I bought the black cabinet boxes that snap together easily for storing the sleeves with alpha dividers to organize.
