Rubbermaid Regeneration Letter Tray, Six Tier, Plastic, Black (86028)

I have a growing collection of external hard drives to house my various media and application files. As the hard drives are not easily stacked due to shape and heat concerns and were rapidly filling the top of my desk, I decided to purchase a rack to maximize space. I looked at many different shelving solutions, but ultimately decided to order these as they were cheap and lightweight. I am very happy with my purchase.The trays do bend a little bit under the weight of the drives, but this is not surprising as they are designed for letters and other paperwork. The trays were packaged well and in such a way that the box they came in was small for the product inside. Unlike some other reviews I have read for this and similar products, none of my trays were damaged. I used some string to tie the whole assembled stack together because there is no mechanism to hold them in place. They have little tabs and slots that fit together but considering the value of the drives I was storing, I wanted a little extra security.Highly recommend this product to anyone that has similar needs.

These stacking trays are nice and versatile. They are not the sturdiest things, ever - they don't lock together, but sit nicely on each other. Also, the plastic isn't really heavy-duty, so they wouldn't be great for books or lots of card stock, etc. However, they are great for basic paper-holding. There is no dedicated top or bottom tray, so they can be configured as needed. I have two sets of three going, right now and that works great. They are a good size for letter-sized papers and folders. They hold manilla and pocket folders fine. They are a good value for the price and easy to assemble.

I bought these for organizing different weights of paper, however they are not very strong and they sag in the middle with one ream of paper. It is okay for a few sheets of paper or a few files. Even with just a half or a third of a ream it still bows in the middle quite a bit. It works okay if you have the heaviest object on the bottom or if you don't stack them. Definitely not heavy duty. The way they stack is a bit unstable also. They do not snap together really so much as just sit on top of one another. I would have given it a lower rating except that it IS very inexpensive, so for what you pay it will serve its purpose for light use.

Works as intended Why take the time out of your busy schedule to go to the store when you can get next day delivery and save 33%.

When you put paper or anything else on the tray, the tray bends. Since this can be stacked quite high, the bending makes it all useless.

It has been nearly a year since my life forever changed, but I just could not wait for the anniversary. I needed to speak now. In July 2019, my life changed when I bought this six tier letter tray. Before that moment, my life was in shambles. Papers on my desk had no idea where they fit in the world. Were they a part of the upper echelon; top-tier performers that needed to be cataloged within reach to be swiftly retrieved? Were they the sturdy foundations of knowledge; papers seated at the bottom for frequent reference with little chance of being handed out? There was nearly a war fought on my desk between the classes. No more. Now, with their six tiered letter tray, my papers know exactly where they belong. Families of papers are no longer torn apart. They rest comfortably together in their own tray, forever nestled safely with each other. Papers, who have always known the frequency with which they would be used, are now easily within my reach at the top, nearly rejoicing at the ceiling they can now actually see since they've been pulled out from the chaos of my desk top. I no longer have to take time away from teaching my classes to wonder how to organize the papers on my desk. They practically organize themselves.It is unfortunate that due to the ease with which these tiers can be used individually, one tray has been separated from the others and sits across the room as a collection tray. I must say that this lone tray has been abused my middle schoolers, who handle it callously as they turn in late and missing assignments. But this hardy tier remains steadfast and true without even a hint of buckling. It is alone only physically, for the other five tiers and I are with it in our hearts.Thank you for changing my life, plastic trays. You may hold my papers on my desk, but you have captured my very soul for forever.

Good quality and great shipping

These stack together; they do not lock together. They come apart easily. But once you put some paper on them, they stay together well enough that isn't a problem. Of course if you put too much weight onto them, like heavy books, they sag in the middle and rest of the papers below. But if used for what they are designed for, they work great!

Muy buen producto fácil de armar y bien practico

Not sturdy at all, very thin plastic, bending under light pressure

There is no official branding for Rubbermaid on the trays.A little flimsy in the middle of the tray and stacking together does not seem all that secure.

I could have used several more of these nesting trays but the vendor limits you to 2 packages, meaning 6 paper trays. Solid quality for the price. Very happy with them. Nest and connect well with ample space i(2") n each tray for paperwork. Note that these are not suitable for 11 x 14" documents - they will not lie flat - which does not affect me at all but is a key point if you are trying to organize legal size documents

Excellent product. Helped me organize my stuff really well. Can stack it vertically or with a little offset in a staggered manner which gives flexibility. Good quality material
