Looks nice
I like this cabinet, and it does look nice. It would be even better if it were easier to assemble and easier to balance the drawers so they do not remain open most of the time. It is functional, but had I known it was apt to tip forward because of the drawers, I probably would have reconsidered. Otherwise, I like it and I am using it.

not worth the money
I needed something quick without breaking the bank. I've had this for 2 months and one of the front pieces has come off and is irrepairable. I've also had trouble keeping the drawers closed. Overall, a piece of junk and not worth the money.

Great for the price!!!
I purchased this file cabinet at a great price. After looking around and not wanting to pay $500 dollars, this was the my choice. Opening the package I was instantly discouraged, there was so many parts and 15 steps. The instructions could be a lot better. I went on line and looked at reviews and took the hint one step at a time. If you have ever assembled any furniture then this will be easy for you. I put it together in 2 /12 hours, with breaks. The cabinet is sturdy and perfect for printer on top and files in the drawers. I would recommend this file cabinet, great deal for the money.

Very Nice product-highly recommend
This furniture is so nice and looks very high end. I ended up getting a great deal when it was 40% off and paid almost nothing for the L-Shaped Desk, the hutch, this file cabinet and also the tech station. They all coordinate wonderfully together and looks sharp. I haven't experienced the scratching yet of the paint like many reviewers talk about but since reading that I have been extra careful, and nothing a black marker can't fix. The drawers slide in and out ok, not as smooth as I expected but it's not bad. You do have to push the drawer in to snap it all the way shut, it's not like you can just give it a push to close on it's own you actually have to force it to close, not deal breaker though. The folder hanger components are plastic and not fun to install but once in, there is a center divider that you can move around to use legal size hanger folders or leave it out and have the entire drawer letter sized hanger folders. Nice flexibility there. It took my husband and myself about an hour and half to put together, there are a lot of pieces and the instructions are ok but could be better. This cabinet didn't have any glides or brackets attached to the drawers but the L-shaped desk had most of that hardware assembled on the drawers already which made installation a bit longer on this little cabinet than the actual desk itself.
