The file cabinet is light-weight but the drawers do not slide easily. The locking mechanism is not the best: you have to work at it to get it locked / unlocked. About what one would expect for an inexpensive file cabinet. Better for home office versus professional environment.
I was disappointed in the product because even though it says heavy it is very light weight and flimsy. It also arrived with 3 dents in it. I would have sent it back but I am putting it in a place that the dents cannot be seen....and its just too much trouble. I did not think it was worth what I paid for it.
