Bought 2 of these from a Staples store on 11/26/13 Nice looking filing cabinets not badly made -- very little assembly. However.. of the two we bought both were defective. The first had a bent drawer to the point the drawer couldn't be closed once opened. This appeared to be from a blunt impact to the top middle of the drawer -- but since there was no visible damage to the cardboard box I suspect this was from manufacturing. Not good. Was fixable with careful tapping with a hammer to resmooth the top of the drawer -- although the dent is still very apparent on the front of the drawer. The other cabinet was missing all 3 of the handles for the drawers. Now how useful is a filing cabinet drawer with no handles and no insets to pull it open with? Not good. We looked in the cardboard boxes and even lifted and shook the filing cabinet in case the handles had fallen in back of a drawer. We could not remove the drawers -- in this model the drawers are NOT removable. In summary -- OPEN THE BOX immediately and check for damage and that all parts are inside. If you got lucky they're not a bad item. But based upon a sample of 2 I would not recommend them.
price is perfect ! the design is outstanding...the ease of assembly was PERFECT ! only had to add handles - wihch was very simple ! the box was desgined well that allowed for easy transporting and moving from one location to another ! the best part of this file cabinet is the light weight YET very durable ! second is the how smoothly the drawers are able to be pushed in and out ..love the LOCKING DESIGN for the top half and allows easy access to the bottom half ....lastly..... the color choices are just perfect !
The unit is advertised as 18" but you can only use about 14". The back 4" can't be used because the drawers don't open far enough to gain access to the last 4".
