This file cabinet is easy to put together.  It's sturdy enough, but there isn't too much weight to it.  I feel like if I file too many papers in the top drawer it could tip over.  Just make sure you keep it heavier on the bottom.  However, it does its job, which is to file papers and keep them organized.  It's perfect to keep personal papers.  It holds 20-30 hanging file folders in each drawer.
