Stylish function!  I read reviews and decided to pay for assembly, glad I did. "Handy" guy said it was a bit more involved than usual bcz of the designed anti-tipping safety mechanism where you can only open 1 drawer at a time. It took a little over an hour, and he said to not completely tighten when working with mdf, though nice appearance like veneer/solid. You can store hanging files sideways (see green hanging file in pic), but if you want to hang standard hanging files from front-to-back, you'll need an extra "file bar" for each drawer (see yellow hanging files in pic).  It only comes with 2 total file bars, and you would need 4 total file bars.  I called Sauder company on user manual with model number and the phone person found my Wayfair order and will be mailing me 2 more file bars for free in 4-6 business days - easy!  Wayfair had fast shipping, no damage.  The box was dinged up, but the outside of the box has reinforced pieces along the seams to protect it, and also inside.
