DEVAISE 3-Drawer Wood File Cabinet, Mobile Lateral Filing Cabinet, Printer Stand with Open Storage Shelves for Home Office, Greige

I picked this up to help organize my office and was pleasantly impressed. Once assembled it fit quite nicely in the spot where my old metal file cabinet stood providing additional space for books and a printer. The item arrived in good condition and well packaged.Assembly took about an hour and 30 minutes. The provided directions were skimpy but easy enough to understand even if your only slightly handy with tools. For this project I would suggest a decent philips head screwdriver and most definitely do not use a power drill. The manufacture does include a screwdriver but it is very small and will quickly become tiresome to use. Because the material is pressboard it is very important one takes his or her time threading in the screws. Over tightening is guaranteed to strip out the pre-drilled holes.Same goes for installing the railings for the drawers. You need to ensure the screws are inserted in straight. If they go in at an angle you run the risk of the causing the drawers to stick or drag when opening and closing. It also help to have an open area to spread out all the parts to make assembly easier.For a sub 100 dollar cabinet you really cannot go wrong. Just remember to take your time, read the instructions thoroughly, and enjoy the added space and storage.

You get what you pay for tbh. If you're expecting a piece that will hold up against time and fair amounts of wear and tear then look for something else. This is nice but it will not last long. It took forever to build by myself but the instructions are not hard to follow, imo. The wheels are also not bad, as in they don't get stuck. Overall I'm happy with it, it's about what I expected, and if it breaks in a year or two I feel like that's fair.

This may be a good piece of furniture, but as a former contractor for 30 years who has built everything from houses to multi-story condos and offices, and assembled hundreds of knock down furniture items, the instructions were a little lacking. When it came to the bottom drawer slides on PAGE 7 (NOT step 7), they were not marked properly or even drawn accurately, making it very difficult to understand. I finally looked at photos others posted to figure out how to mount the tracks. Also, the tracks were somewhat flimsy, and one of the ball bearing sets came out of the silver retainer on the left track, making it impossible for the extension track to go in. I finally spotted the two out of place ball bearings, coaxed them back into their holes then used a flat putty blade and hammer to tap the track down flat again, then it worked. The lady that wrote about the bottom drawer tracks having to be Gorilla glued was correct. the screws are tiny and particle board weak and thin, so they are not going to stay screwed in. I may even hot melt glue the tracks to the wood sides. Also the little white wedge clips that they give you to install in all the corners on the back panel are a little ridiculous. I used a framing square and hot glued the seams and it's now square and solid. The shelf needs snap clips that hold it in place once installed so it doesn't flip up in the air and dump the contents all over the floor.Packaging was great. The box arrived with the tape partially torn open, one corner chewed off of it by wild dogs, and covered with Amazon tape, and I was totally expecting the contents to be damaged, but got lucky, and none were, so 5 stars on packaging. Unfortunately, packaging isn't a rated category.

Just what I was looking for, a stand for my large Canon printer and a place to store all of my printer paper. I also have a place to store recent prints and printer ink storage in one neat location, with no more clutter. Assembly was easy as the instructions were easy to follow. The stand is quite sturdy and looks good too. Worth the price.

Overall, this looks nice and is a great size for a home office space. Some of the materials are pretty flimsy (see photo) and the assembly took me about 3 hours- 20-30min of which was spent screwing, unscrewing, and re-screwing the drawer sliders on. The predrilled holes throughout are really just indentations and it took some finagling to get the screws to lay flat (vital for the drawer tracks) Also the “wood” finish split on most of the attachments (but isn’t visible so not a huge deal- just a testament to mediocre materials + the predrilled holes being too small) Other than that, it’s not particularly difficult to assemble- just time consuming. Having a second person to help would be great. It does come with a small screwdriver, which I appreciate; recommend using a longer one if you have it.I feel *ok* about the value for the money but would feel better if it was about $20 cheaper (it was $104 after tax)

I really don't want to discuss assembly, not after reading the reviews and seeing the astonishing success of others. Name a mistake and yes, I did that. I read the instructions completely (except the last page evidently) and I laid out the pieces carefully and began. And began again. And again. Took a few days to clear my muddled irritated head and tried again. Yes, I assembled it upside down, wondered why the drawer side was on THAT side... yes that was the beginning of a series of unfortunate events including upside down drawer glides... on and on... ALL my fault and so doggone dumb...Page 8- those little random plastic things that IMO at the time "well those can't do much" - YES, they DO much, they add a tremendous amount of stability and if I was a Rocket scientist or an astronaut I might have figured it out but I'm clearly a potato.Review- it's a nice looking cart and holds my Printer/Phone/Modem and saves a vast amount of real estate which was the plan at the outset.Would I buy it again- 100% yes, yes I would. It's never going to be a treasured hand me down but it's a very good and functional piece of furniture.Assembly: Don't be me- don't get distracted and make sure the top is the piece you start attaching things to. Follow this wisdom and go forth and prosper!

Definitely not sturdy. When assembling the connectors were cheap quality and broke easily and extremely difficult to screw the one end in straight. Drawers do not slide easily and bottom drawer does not close flush. Going to have to add some bracing and buy some better rails for the drawer. DO Not recommend
