dented
on April 26, 2010

after taking it out of the cardboard i discovered that it had been dented at the top right by the lock. the top drawer would not open without catching. too much of a hassle to load back in the car and drive back to the store so we pulled the dent out the best we could. wrapping on the cardboard was torn at the bottom should have had the sales assistant remove all wrapping so i could have seen the dent
I will definitely be buyig the sames 4 drawer Staples brand files when I need additional ones. They are better than the Hon files that I already have in my office. I was very pleased with my purchase and I think you will be too. The quality and price I got was what I was looking for.
I found this to be a great buy. Construction is sturdy unlike comparable models in the market for the price. The drawers open and close smoothly. The drawers open all the way out for good access. So no complaints it's a good buy.
I bought two of these cabinets for my home office thinking they were the same quality as my Hon cabinets in my office with just a Staples name on them. I was surprised that they were made of extremely thin steel sheets that seem to move when I open and shut the drawers. One drawer front is so flimsy it came with a built-in wrinkle. The adjustable file guides are made out of wire instead of the nice adjustable flat guides on the Hon cabinets.These things were so light I could pick them up and put them in place. I hope they don't buckle under the weight of the files I am putting in them.I could have done without the locks if it would have contributed resources to make the sheet metal a little thicker. I feel like I have thrown [$] out the window.
We debated about whether to buy HON Staples or other brands but ultimately the price and quality seemed best with the Staples file cabinets. They have arrived and we have filled them up - with no complaints. I think we definitely made the right choice.
