Smead Stadium File, 12 Pockets, Tear Resistant Gusset, Letter Size, Navy, Alphabetic/Daily/Monthly/Household Labels (70211)

I get one of these every year to store & organize everything I need at tax time. It holds up well for the duration of the year, looks good on my desk, & holds all my receipts & forms. Organizing the paperwork in this file as I get it has greatly simplified tax time.

Liked it so well I re-ordered a second one. Enough pockets and they expand to a nice size.

Wow sums it up! My first time writing a review because this product is incredible. It has 1/3 tabs for each section; using file folders there are actually 36 file folder names you can see at once. I was skeptical because any other accordion files don't hold file folders very good; they kind of go lopsided and just don't fit well. this one is excellent for papers AND file folders, even hanging folders*. the other reason I was skeptical is because the plastic or metal inclined file holders don't hold a thick file. Not only does each section of the stadium file hold my 36 files but I put a folder in that was over an inch thick and it just slid right in. No problem. Someone suggested unfolding it from the bottom, stretching it out, which I did and it worked perfectly. I replaced 2 inclined file holders that took up a lot of space and everything fit in just this one. it seems heavy duty and I can read every file folder. I combine this with removable file folder labels so I can change file folder names as the different jobs come in. And as an added bonus, the price is now like 1/2 price. I'm definitely buying several more. *I use use Fastab hanging file folders that have the label built in that I also use with the removable labels. you can fit those into this stadium file too making the stadium file a great to do/priority reminder (to do lists don't work for me because they get to be pages & pages long :(

I find that a stand up file is easier to use for someone who has difficulty with their hands. Stays in place, does not topple over.

Man, this could have been such a great product of each file section, sides and all of bottom, was laminated or reinforced or were plastic. I love this stadium file but it basically started tearing the very first moment I put something in. Filing sideways can cause bigger tears so I have to use folders vertically which makes it a total waste! I really hope that SMEAD smartens up and gets with the times to improve their product. It’s 2021. Making a product like this to be great quality should not be rocket science nor should it cost much more. Just too bad these ladies at SMEAD are not trying to be in the shoes of the consumer.
