Although the file cabinet took several hours to put together, I was satisfied with it initially.  It seemed sturdy and could accommodate all of my files.  After a year and a half, however, the top drawer completely fell off its track.  The bottom drawer is crooked because some files fell and the bottom is mere cardboard.  It is now useless, sitting in our living room.  I bought attractive file boxes for a third of the price and they work perfectly on my bookshelves.
