I am extremely pleased with this door hanging file organizer because it has decluttered my workspace and my mind. Energy that was spent remembering, retrieving, then replacing folders is no longer squandered on these inefficient tasks. I can now keep my current and ongoing projects where I can see them, handle them and move them through space while I'm working and organizing. It's like, before this organizer, I was stuck in one of those tile matching games where you can only see two things at a time. Now I can see everything all at once, so I'm more efficient. This system allows me to see and access all files, folders and notebooks at once- I can put my eyes and hands on anything I need to work on, put it back where it came from, and remain calm and methodical because I can now see that everything I need to handle is being handled.
Before this product, I would often spread my files and notebooks over the bed or the floor while I worked. This was an imperfect solution but worked better than all the crates, hanging file folders, plastic bins, wire holders and other impossible systems I tried. At the end of a work session I would gather up all my files and notebooks and stack them back on my desk in an ugly pile that dominated my workspace.
Fortunately, I don't have to do that anymore. Now, I can look up and see everything I am currently working on- every project and duty is clearly displayed against a dark background. Every crazy piece of paper, document, copy, or form that needs to be filled out, mailed, or filed is right in front of me in a visually pleasing, blessedly finite space. There are enough pockets to not only hold all my current projects, but pockets dedicated to bill paying, calendars, as well as incoming and outgoing mail. Because of how my mind works, this hanging file folder is one of the best purchases I've ever made.
In conclusion, if you suffer from a constant, nagging feeling of forgetting something important, or fear missing deadlines, or maybe just feel overwhelmed by your files, folders, and papers in general, I would strongly recommend trying this system or one like it. I am especially fond of this one because it is well made, looks great on the closet door next to me, and even has smaller pockets on the bottom that keep my glasses, calculator, headphones, charging cords, and index cards at my fingertips. I couldn't be happier. Five stars for an amazing product.

I was disappointed to discover that the folders weren't included but it did come with door hooks. They're completely pointless with the size that I ordered but whatevs. It seems well made and the metal ringed holes will be convenient for hanging it on the wall. Overall I'm pleased with it.

This item seems to be well made and I like the concept of this low profile storage space. I was disappointed it did not come with the colorful folders.

I am obsessed!!! I have had this for over two years and this keeps me so organized as a teacher, I can make weeks and weeks worth or lesson plans. I have other teachers now ordering this bc they love mine so much!! I'm switching to another age group so I just ordered another one so my old class can keep my old one!! Now everyone can stay organized â¤â¤â¤

I use this for one set of students that does ELA and math monday through friday. For each section I have Monday ELA, Monday Math, Tuesday ELA, Tuesday Math, ext. I put two folders in each section for this week and next week to plan ahead on curriculum. Very useful for subs/students/teacher aids to find what the work is for the day for which subject. We had to hang it above some lockers because the hangers weren't working for us, so the top folder section is difficult to reach if you're under 5'4. If your door doesn't have a window, maybe it doesn't matter, but kids knock on my door on their way to lunch/class so I don't want to block the door window in case someone really needs to come in.

The pockets are able to hold a good amount of papers. I put work and tests in the same folder for that period. If you have like 30 students doing packets, this may not be appropriate though.

It was actually somewhat difficult to find 5 different colored folders (one color for each day of the week) to go with this on amazon.
