This is perfect in my craft room to store my craft hobbies. The drawers are nice and sturdy for heavy cardboard covered in fabric and the handles are solid, but the drawers are not intended to hold heavy items. My only complaint is that the bracket/tab on one of the 7 shelves that keeps the drawer from slipping through to the other side was not properly soldered - one end is soldered to the shelf and the other end is not.  As a result, the bracket is flimsy and does not serve its purpose. The drawer covers the bracket/tab it so you don't see it, but it is clearly a defect and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5.  I plan to see if I can get a replacement shelf for the defective one.  Overall, I would recommend this piece of furniture.
