I have previously placed an order for the 5 drawer cabinet, which I liked well enough. My husband put it together. I needed another so this time I ordered the 7 drawer cabinet. There were several reviews stating it was complicated to assemble. I somewhat disagree. It is definitely tedious and time consuming, but not complicated. The instruction booklet however, is mostly pictures. I recommend doing a You Tube search for this brand and how to assemble. I found that most helpful after I organized all the components and hardware. Everything went together nicely and it took me several hours, but I was watching tv while putting it together too. The only complaint I have is when I was completely finished, with on, it was wobbly. VERY WOBBLY, like one corner was lower than the others. Apparently one of the was broken. I was so tired after putting it together, that rather than remove all the , I chose to put a piece of cardboard under it to balance it. I can live with that. The drawers are flush and smoothly open and close. After completion, I realized my husband who complained how difficult the other cabinet was to assemble actually did not do it correctly. On that one he mixed up the bottom and top so that where the holes where the caster would screw in are actually on top of the unit. Also he did not align the holes to the right spot for the drawer assembly which caused all the drawer to not be flush with the cabinet. If I could make a recommendation, I would suggest about 6/12 extra screws be added to the pack to really secure the drawer glides. If not tightened properly as with the one my husband put together, they will come off the screws and the drawer will not go in. I definitely recommend using a power drill for the screws as the manual also recommends. My husband said he did not use that on the other case. Lesson learned: put it together myself LOL. Looks nice and sturdy.
A little pricey. Be patient with assembly. Takes a couple hours. Missing a part. Double check parts before assembly. Very clean and sleek looking. Very popular. Lots of storage.
Very sturdy. thanks great product.
It took me an hour to assemble this chest! The directions were not very clear, so I had to disassemble it once and try again. Otherwise, once it is together properly, Im happy with the purchase. Thought it was bigger.
Be ready to spend time assembling! It took four hours to get this together! I will say Im pleased with how sturdy the final product is though. The door slides are also really nice. easy assemble, exactly as expected, space saver.
Great except takes some time to put together! One broken wheel I discovered when almost finished assembly. Not willing to take apart to send back!! I will have to but new . Good cabinet otherwise Looks solid, easy to assemble.
I purchased 4 of the 7 drawer storage units for my craft room. Everyone is correct, there are a zillion pieces to assemble these storage units. It is a bit time consuming. The drawers are deep can hold lots of stuff. They Look sturdy and was exactly what I was looking for. The one thing that was disappointing were the casters! If your are planning on stacking them, you will have to take off the bottom units . I stacker mine two high and just left the bottom unit with . They collapsed with very little product in the drawers. We then had to leave the bottom units without . Not a disaster, but having the storage unit so that its mobile would have been nice! The casters are flimsy. Perfect!!
One of the parts of the drawers was missing so a replacement had to be ordered. It took 3 weeks to arrive because it had to come from China. Seller offered a 20 refund which I thought was fair. Overall, good product. Lots of pieces to assemble. Use a power screw driver. 1 less star because I had to deal with getting the replacement. Otherwise would have been 5 stars. Works great!!
Looks as pictured. The reason I knocked off a star is because it was missing drill holes for the casters. I doesnt bother me too much because I wasnt planning on using the casters. But if I did it would have been a pain to do the holes.
I would compare the build to with way better instructions. It came well packaged. Solid piece. Happy with purchase. yes we like it.

Terrible instructions
I disliked the instructions that came with it. I use it to store craft supplies. Great price and somewhat durable.
PERFECT ORGANIZATION!

Watch out for the non weight bearing casters!

A little small but good.
At least as good as the equivalent. Only downside is the sides of the drawers are a bit short but you get what is advertised. Very Sturdy product.
Missing pre/drilled holes for casters.
