But it still works great. I am a seasoned furniture builder. Anything from , cheap Walmart furniture and more. This one had me scratching my head at a few points. Specifically when putting on the guides to slide the drawers in / taking apart the black one confused me until I realized there was a remark in the beginning of the instructions / not shown anywhere on the page I was on. Also be prepared for literally any screw you put in to have the paint crack off where the hole is and the particle board to splinter a bit. It wasnt unusable but made me very nervous about the construction.
I ended up watching a YouTube video for a different brand of this cabinet that looks exactly the same to figure out some parts. When putting in the filing cabinet drawer the end that held in the ball bearings broke off so I ended up with a bunch of balls on my floor. I couldnt figure out how to get that back in properly but luckily I dont plan to use the filing cabinet for actual files. I was able to get the drawer in good enough where it closes / mostly.
Some of the boards for the bottom of the drawers arrived broken / luckily when putting them in the drawer the broken parts were not showing (it was just a few of the corners).
Overall it was exactly what I needed for my space. It does feel sturdy when put together but seeing the different pieces break down as I put it together had me a bit worried.
Again, if you get stuck on the drawer sliding parts there are YouTube videos out there for a similar cabinet by a different brand that will help.
Sturdy/ish
