Buy better quality

Although the file was at a low price you get what you pay for. The drawers do not hve glides to hold file toward the front and you MUST ou hanging folders otherwise files will not stand up. The store DID NOT have the file on display so I did not know the quality or faults before buying. I guess I can not return for a refund since I have assembled it. Suggest you buy a better quality.
Very thin metal. When delivered I thought the box was empty it was so light. Surprised it wasn't damaged there was so little packing protection material. That said now that it is filled and functioning it is fine. Not a work horse that you can grab and yank open or slam shut. But for a small business or home use it is adequate. Since I got it with a sale price and used rewards I didn't pay a lot for it. Sure wouldn't pay the regular full price for it.
This is perfect for me anyway. I had no problem moving it around to see where I did want to put it. I have arthritis so moving and lifting is not easy. But this cabinet empty that is is no problem for me. Had no dents no ding packing was great and not a lot for me to get rid of. Yes I would recommend this to any one who needs a locking file cabinet to just stash those papers that willl mean nothing to anybody. Again I say buy it. perfect size and stashes out of the way.
This is good economical filing cabinet that fits well in small space. It is heavy enought to handle basic home filing needs and was light enough for me to assemble and put into place in my home.
I just love the 2 drawer file cabinet. The drawers pull out far enough to get to items in the back. Very easy to set up and not too heavey to move around. It is a great buy especially when on sale.
I have many files (some contents are heavy) and this adds weight to the cabinet. In this case the thing falls over when you open it. Put a lead weight in the bottom or put heavy stuff on top of the cabinet structure and you will be fine. It does the job and the price (especially if on sale) was right than the bigger units whcih are more costly though more stable.
