This review is from: 4D Concepts Rolling File Cabinet, Espresso (Kitchen) This filing cabinet is cheap in every way, and much worse than what you should be getting for $50+. Yes, it's much cheaper than some of the $100-200 alternatives that you can find on Amazon - but keep in mind that this filing cabinet is also very, very small.
The instructions are dismal and there is no written text - just visuals, which can be frustrating even to someone very handy. Some of the pre-drilled holes were not pre-drilled. Not everything fit as it should. Some parts were slightly damaged during shipping, but just enough to not warrant sending the thing back. As of right now, the unit sits crooked enough that the sliding file drawer hits the upper drawer when opening or shutting. This is unbelievably annoying, and there's really not an easy fix. Nothing in the stand itself appears to be crooked; this thing is just designed extremely poorly. I've disassembled it twice and repositioned the tracks, the cabinet, and the drawer - all to no avail.

This review is from: 4D Concepts Rolling File Cabinet, Espresso (Kitchen) It was a debate between three or four stars I decided on the four stars becasue of the price of this file cabinet; it should serve my needs well and I couldn't find one cheaper.
It is just as pictured; quality of construction is adaquate for light home use. I would not recommend this for a home office or a small business office; I don't think it would stand up to that kind of use. I will use this at my computer desk to file my mail and other private papers. There is no lock so sensitive papers will stay in my Sentry box. One file drawer is all I need and I like the storage drawer and the work area on top. The material used is typical for this type product; pressed wood and screws. The casters are plastic but appear sturdy enough to handle this cabinet once it is fully loaded. The drawer handles are plastic but again I think for my use will be okay. The runners and guides for the drawers are minimally adaquate; I think they will stand up to my use but...Read more 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: 4D Concepts Rolling File Cabinet, Espresso (Kitchen) The cabinet was easy to put together. The bottom drawer does not pull out all the way so accessing files to the rear is a little difficult. Also, it is not very deep so it does not hold many files. It is a nice looking piece but the functionality is limited. |
