Best quality/best priced I found

Forget Office Design (too cheaply made) and Hon (too expensive but so well built) these Staples 20" deep mobile file cabinets are the best thing I found in my 8 month search- seriously I looked that long before I pulled the trigger on these bc they were exactly what I was looking for. Easy and hidden roller on floor easy roller pullout of file cabinets -not perfectly like Hon but nearly as smooth- and a sleek stylish line that looks great in the home. I bought four and got the super discount of $140-$148 price each. I love them and thank you Staples for figuring out which style/size to knockoff bc you did a great job on these! Sturdy no assembly required holds all my files w no problem and a pretty good price. I had almost given up on finding a good sturdy slim line file cabinet for home use till I found these. Highly recommend.
No Complaints. This cabinet filled a need. Its' sturdy and fits everything i needed to fit. Plus i love the neutral color. Only thing it's missing is a lock
Returned the "el -cheapo" file for this one. Unit is solid smooth running has anti-stopover counter weight and rolls on hidden casters. Very pleased. So glad I returned the cheap unit.
We love this compact file cabinet. The construction and materials are top-notch the lock (and 2 keys) works well and unlike my last 2-drawer filing cabinet the lock works on BOTH drawers not just the top one. The file cabinet arrived completely assembled just take it out of the box and remove all the protective wrappings. The handles are flush with the cabinet and for what it is worth the pull is at the TOP of each drawer so we don't have to bend down to the floor to open the bottom drawer. This may not matter to many but I recently had a back injury and handle placement matters. Unlike the cheap models the drawers open fully allowing easy access to rear files with no tipping of cabinet. Another important factor another reviewer commented on is that there is more room above the hanging files so that the tops of the files and table do not rub causing them to crush. I have one cabinet in my closet another next to my desk. I did not care about it having wheels but have already wheeled it out twice in the first week to work on files - it glides effortlessly - wheels are large and nicely recessed under the cabinet great quality. My husband was thrilled to see the quality of this and wished we had spent a bit more money on it in the first place. Our old less expensive 2-drawer cabinet is out at the curb now waiting for a new home. . . . here comes someone now loading it into his truck - well he got it for the right price - free! Our last 2-drawer file cabinet was the $69 model. It was just a bit smaller (2" less in depth and 2" shorter) As other reviewers stated it is flimsy - the top drawer was always "wonky" falling out of kilter so that we would have to pull the drawer in and out until it realigned. Also the insertable wire frame for the hanging files wasn't stable enough to hold files and they were constantly off track. This new replacement file has solid tall sides that hold the files in place and give the drawers great stability. If the measurements work for your space requirements I highly recommend this cabinet!
