I bought a used model to save 10 bucks the product its self is great; however ids spend the 10 dollars to receive a better condition. It looked like someone took a metal baseball bat to the box and beyond. Fairly damaged.
Great value, I just wish it was an inch or 2 deeper. I measured the outside but didnt consider that the drawers were not as deep. That was my mistake but it still does what I want it to do
I needed a two drawer letter size file cabinet as much under a hundred bucks as possible. I wanted black but not ugly! Something sleek for an apartment living room. I had an old unit made of wood which finally broke as it was not strong enough. I read all the reviews on for file cabinets I liked the look and were near my budget and some of much more pricey ones and at the end of my search found this one which was widely hailed as nice looking, easy to assemble, well made and inexpensive. I especially wanted to make sure I could access the whole file drawer all the way to the back and this was an element addressed in some of the reviews to my liking, so I bought two of the cabinets. The first one arrived about a week before the second. All I needed to do before using was attach the drawer handles, which requires just a phillips screwdriver. It comes with two handles which each use two screws to attach through small holes to the drawers. Its done from the inside of the drawer and requires a LOT of pressure on the screwdriver to get the screws to go all the way in, but they do fit if you press hard. The drawers slide very smoothly, all the way in and out, and its a solid unit which will not tip over, while at the same time being easy to slide around a room around before you fill it with files. This was one was in perfect shape and came in a very large box which required help to move due to size (not weight). The second one arrived, however, with a long gash in the side of the box. The box had been taped over with packing tape by whomever had dealt with the damage in transit. Oh oh. Once opened, I found a circular puncture hole had been ripped in the back of the metal cabinet, as if it had fallen off a truck or conveyer belt from a great height and landed on a spike or post. Instead of being sent back to the factory, someone made a decision to patch up the box with tape and send it on its way. While very disappointing, I could see that the hole was not in the way of the drawers at all in terms of functionality; serendipitously it was purely cosmetic. Because of this and because my shipping location had been closed for Corona virus shutdown, and I did not want to get someone to help me schlepp it somewhere given the pandemic right now as I write this and when it was delivered to me, I decided to keep the file cabinet. I have used black duct tape to cover the gash but it is against a wall so it is never seen anyway. I highly recommend these cabinets as high-functioning, aesthtically pleasing, and affordable. And they DO have free returns and shipping if you receive it and need to return it. Heres hoping if you do, its not in the middle of a pandemic!
im overall satisfied with this item, it is way smaller than I expected but I guess I am responsible for not paying attention to the dimension specifications.
I like the color, I could assemble it all by myself.
This fits perfectly as a short dresser in my closet. However, have had the front boards get loose and close to pulling off. Also, you cant fill the lower drawer as the items will pull the upper drawer out with it. But, still works for my needs and a good value for price.

small but presentable

Medium quality!
Not suitable for homes with toddlers!
Ok file cabinet
Works fine. Very light and drawers arent the smoothest pulling out. But works. I feel like I need to put a weight in it.
Easily put together, not super sturdy
This fits perfectly as a short dresser in my closet. However, have had the front boards get loose and close to pulling off. Also, you cant fill the lower drawer as the items will pull the upper drawer out with it. But, still works for my needs and a good value for price.
