This is like a heirloom piece of furniture to be handed down. Forget buying a cheap metal file cabinet. I bought this for a corner of an office and am sad that is is not a focal piece. The details are very nice. The drawers glide well. The price was incredible and I had been looking for awhile for a wood file cabinet. Even my husband who works in a furniture store was impressed at my find. Now just have to get to the task of arranging my paperwork.
