Wooden FIle Cabinet
I love this file cabinet, I bought 4 of the exact same one 4 years ago and was ecstatic to be able to get another matching one. In Fact I ordered it and didn't even know it was an exact match and was even more pleased to realize it was.

Good looking/easy assembly-- will it last?
This is the second file cabinet from Office Depot I have assembled. (the other was the wider, horizontal cabinet in the same line). Both were delivered promptly and included all necessary parts. The directions for assembly were extremely clear and easy to follow. The finished cabinets look good. However, I have three concerns:
1) the dowels provided for aligning the sides and tops are undersized. The directions call for gluing them in place, but with so much gap, the glue cannot provide a good bond. It seems doubtful that they provide any additional strength. The integrity of the cabinet frame depends entirely on the mechanical connectors.
2. Although the finish is good, the wood is cheap and soft. It will not stand up to much stress. You don't want to move these cabinets too often or too roughly!
3. The cabinets are tippy and can be pulled over by the weight of an open drawer. An anchor strap is provided to attach to a wall. Be sure to use it, but be careful because it could be easily yanked out of plaster or drywall by a heavy cabinet.

Looks great, easy assembly
This product was very easy to assemble, taking around 30 minutes. It looks like a stick built piece and not a knock down. Very pleased!

2 drawer file cabinet
I was able to put the cabinet together with no problem, simple directions, everything is labeled nicely. I expected to put our legal size files in vertically; I was surprised to find out the drawers were set up to hold legal or letter (facing forward).
I do not suggest putting the heavy stuff on top unless you use the wall anchor (I used all 3 screws, 1 on the back of the cabinet, 1 at the top of the anchor strip, and 1 on the wall close to the cabinet), the anchor keeps everything nice and secure.
