Expected. I bought this cabinet in August 2021 as I was looking for something to store papers and other things. Im a graduate student so I have a lot of books and printed articles that I need to organize. I wanted something that would be a bit more functional than just a filing cabinet and this was perfect! I looked at a lot of different options, and Im very glad I found this one.
The file cabinet drawer is spacious for my needs, and I really like the other drawers for storing other things. The open shelves are deep so there is lots of space behind the books I have on there where I can store things behind it if I wanted to. Thats kind of a compromise with a piece like this.
Assembly on this was a total breeze, largely due to the care and attention that was given to the packaging. The screws and such were all put in individual bags labeled with their part letter or number so it was easy to figure out what you needed. The same goes for the actual pieces of the unit. The numbers and letters were clear, and I appreciate the detail of putting an arrow next to the 6 so you knew that it was a six instead of a nine! Ive been nervous about putting things together with drawers, but this was easy and no mistakes were made! (The bottom drawer in the picture only looks open because I didnt push it closed all the way, not because of an assembly, production, or design flaw!)
I really like the overall look of it. Its minimalistic but doesnt look super cheap either. I definitely recommend this if youre looking for something for your home or office that is spacious, sturdy, and easy to put together!
Great for home office!
