  • Needs careful assembly, may need some tweaking but a pleasure after
Color: Chalked Chestnut
Beautiful addition to my home office. This roomy lateral file and the Freedom Filer filing system mean my paper clutter issues are behind me. It's heavy when it arrives so if your final location needs stairs, I strongly recommend getting the delivery service. Assembly service via TaskRabbit is also recommended though I didn't use it. Assembly is long and prone to errors so be very careful. When it arrives, make sure to look for the name label for each piece and mark them all. The labels are not the same; some are stickers, some stamped into the side of the wood and some don't have any label at all. Spend time upfront to understand and make sure you know how the entire thing will be put together and where each piece will go. It took me 4 hours to assemble and I did have a few issues with it after. The top wooden piece doesn't sit flat on supports because the supports assembly is a bit wonky (the screw holes seem to be slightly off). Also, the two drawers are different so make sure you put them in the right slots. After assembling, my top drawer kept rubbing against the bottom drawer front-plate and occasionally wouldn't even go in without lifting or pushing the lower drawer down. I took both drawers out and realized that the Sauder cam bolts weren't sitting completely snugly in the shelves. I pushed them in, they kept bouncing back out but finally managed to make them stay put and now my drawers roll, open and close smoothly. The filing itself is pure pleasure. Plenty of space. Adjustable for letter and legal file folders. I'm transitioning away from binders and using hanging files and manila folders is such a relief and makes filing and looking for stuff a breeze and even enjoyable. I recommend looking into the Freedom Filer system that is self-purging so you keep automatically cleaning out old papers as they age out and get replaced by new ones. The cabinet itself is a stunner with the shiplap front panels adding a nice touch of class. Not being metal means it just keeps the look of my home office classy. And the nice depth means I can use it to keep my printer and scanner on top. Perfect and highly recommended once you get past the assembly issues. ... show more

  • Read the instructions very very carefully. Maybe 2 or 3 times before beginning. Solid advice.
Color: Chalked Chestnut
It took me a bit longer to build this because I did not pay close attention to one small detail when assembling the lower/front below the bottom drawer. I had installed it upside down which was very easy to do as the only thing that changed was a fractional amount of spacing showing up at the top rather than at the bottom. It was my fault, their documentation did have a small note to the side, but I overlooked it. I was able to salvage, but it did require that I remove one of the sides from the cabinet. That did take a little doing. Again - NOT THEIR FAULT. But do remember to read each step once, twice, and even a third time, before starting to assemble. Save yourself my small hell. The cabinet is very nice looking, the file cabinet drawers work beautifully, and it is pretty sturdy. It would have been a bit more sturdy if I had not messed up. Enjoy, my wife and I are very happy with it. ... show more

  • Good piece of furniture, but consider other factors.
Color: Chalked Chestnut
First off, this appears to be a solid, good looking piece of furniture. After assembled, I would recommend it. As other folks have pointed out, there are other things to consider. First, this is heavy. That's great after assembled. But the box weighs 119 pounds. I decided to open the box in the garage and make a bunch of trips upstairs to carry the individual pieces. As for assembly, I've assembled many IKEA and other products. It took me 3 - 3 1/2 hours to complete this. The directions provided are thorough for the most part. There are 25 steps, and some of those need to be done twice (e.g. assembly of each drawer). As one reviewer said, the plastic "Twist-Lock Fasteners" are relatively flimsy, and a couple of mine fell out and had to be reinserted during assembly. For some reason it included many of these but also a number of the typical cam screws and locks which are standard on IKEA and other furniture. Those are much more sturdy (metal vs plastic) and there appears to be no reason why they just didn't use those for all of those connections. I imagine it is cost-savings. I concluded almost all steps with no problem. Double check that you have the correct part in the correct direction, as that is not always obvious. The one thing that I wished that they made clearer is that while the directions to assemble each of the drawers are exactly the same and use the same steps, there is a top drawer and bottom drawer. I assembled one drawer and put it in the bottom slot. But it did not line up. After trying for several minutes, I put it in the top slot just in case and it fit!. Then when I assembled the other drawer it went right into the bottom slot. ... show more

  • nice, sturdy and attractive product
Color: Chalked Chestnut
This was purchased to be more aesthetically pleasing and to replace two older, less attractive 2 drawer file cabinets. It looks exactly like I thought it would from the picture and I'm very pleased with the looks of it. I also seem to have extra room after transferring everything into it from the other ones. I did have my son help put it together, he's more familiar with different types of hardware, etc. While it was not hard for him it was a bit time consuming as indicated in other reviews, with the slowest part being the hardware for drawers and was definitely necessary to follow the directions. He had to tweak something to get one of the drawers to close "perfectly" so it didn't rub on the side at all, but that was no big deal. It seems very sturdy, drawers move smoothly, this is nicely made. I'm only giving specific areas 4 stars because it hasn't yet stood the test of time, but I have a good feeling about it if I do my part to take care of it, so my overall rating is what I believe a well-earned 5. Sorry for poor pic lighting, and it will look even better when I paint the room it's in. ... show more
