My husband builds homes for a living and he said, and I quote, “This was a pain to put together.” He said there were many parts, things weren’t labeled well, and instructions were not helpful. And he spent far too long trying to (unsuccessfully) make the locking drawer lock and the middle drawer stay in its track.
The top drawer, which is supposed to be a locking drawer, does NOT lock. It’s a simple notch in the wood of the frame that the metal piece is supposed to slide into and, apparently, lock it in place? Nope. It pulls right out and the drawer opens.
And the second drawer won’t stay in the trackand falls into the bottom drawer – the filing drawer. The metal track it slides along is a very flimsy material – like a thin aluminum. It bends far too easily and causes it to jump the track. Open the middle drawer and you pull open the bottom drawer by default.
See video.
And the filing drawer. No hanging file frame here, folks. It is a legal size drawer, I guess, but the metal piece that the hanging file tabs run along, don’t fit that size.
It’s all very disappointing.
I spent a few weeks really trying to find an affordable option to declutter my home office and thought this was the answer.
I knew it was an $85 cabinet and my expectations were fair.
But I DID expect the locking drawer to lock and the hanging file drawer to be functional without the drawer above it falling into it every time I open it.
This is one of those things where my office reorganization just came to a grinding halt because the shelving unit that this replaced has been repurposed already.
I now have to ask my husband to disassemble something he spent half a Sunday assembling and cursing at. And then ask him to help me drive it to the nearest UPS store (40 minutes) and haul it in for me. I hate bothering him after he gave up half a Saturday to put this together for me.
It’s too bad, too, because there are things I definitely like about it. I like the smaller size, the wheels, the ability to slant the side shelves, and the appearance of it.
Honestly, I am so disappointed.

Have been a carpenter for 37 years and probably put together 15 entire ikea kitchens alone, and have built many other furniture systems and this has got to be the cheapest thing I’ve ever built. The drawers alone with the tinfoil drawer glides I give a day with any weight in them. They hardly hold their own weight let alone an entire file drawer. When someone gives this thing 5 stars it makes my head hurt, must be using it for a showpiece.

Overall I like the printer cart. It wasn’t very hard to put together as long as you follow the instructions. It seems pretty sturdy and I have been using it for about a week now in my home office. It does roll quite easily also. I was disappointed when we got to the end and realized it was missing one of the rails for the file drawer. So now my files are just laying in the bottom drawer which means I have to go through all of them to find the file I need.

We bought this for our living room. It is the perfect size for our space.
We did need 3 people to put the top section to the bottom. But other than that, it was pretty easy to put together.
I would recommend to others.

I can’t say much other than I love this. It was not as easy to assemble as I would have liked, it did take awhile and another set of hands. It has so much space though and I got this to clear up space in my office. It did just that. It’s sturdy and secure. Such a great buy!

From reading previous reviews, if you have problems putting this together you should get someone else to do it. The instructions were crystal clear, the cart is sturdy as heck and a great price. I put it together myself. The tools are a bit difficult to work with, so i used my own – screwdriver and allen wrench. Lock works fine. Highly recommend!
