This file cabinet works great for my needs. I really like the top drawer which is about 3" deep, great for stapler, tape dispenser and other small items. One reviewer mentioned you can't use the full drawer because you can't pull it out far enough. That is probably a safety feature so the cabinet doesn't fall forward when the drawer is fully open. I use that space behind the file folders to store other items I seldom use like the 500GB Picture Keeper back up drive, and a battery charger for AAA through D size batteries. My printer fits well on top of the cabinet. I feel like the weight of the printer balances the cabinet so it is less likely tip when the bottom drawer is fully open.
This is a lifesaver for me as a teacher. I always need to sort things. A file cabinet is great for this. There are two file drawers. I use one for work and one for personal purposes. The small drawer, I have stored important documents. I love that the top file drawer and the small drawer lock.
Great for adding file storage space to my office. Quite light, make sure to fill the bottom drawer first or it could tip. Drawer mechanical action is stiff for my taste - not well aligned or lubricated. OK for occasional use, would hesitate to recommend if you anticipate very frequent access.

No handles in the box. Plastic zip ties to open the drawers? Bottom drawer frame is damaged.
No frills, came assembled in box (you just need to screw in handles, it took 5 minutes). Drawers open and close smoothly. Folders fit. No frills, no fuss. Good stuff.
