I read the reviews before I purchased it but thought how bad could it be people are too critical. But they were right. As soon as I put some files in the drawer it bowed and would not close right.
Very poorly made. The handles were on inside. It was difficult to loosen screws without stripping them. After moved handles and loaded it can't lock it. Only middle drawer would lock but when turn key it goes off track. Even tried with drawer empty.

I dislike these file cabinets (I bought 2) intensely. When you can get the drawers to open it's less than half the depth of the cabinet. That means reaching back inside without being to see the file you're after. Then the drawers come off their tracks and stop the drawer from opening beyond a couple inches or at all. Staples has agreed to exchange these as I must have purchased two defective units but these are mass-produced the same way and I don't want Staples brand again. I should have paid more at the start and bought Hon.
