They put plenty of time and material into this quality cabinet so you and your family can have a piece of furniture that will stand the test of time. If you're looking for a sturdy but stylish filing cabinet; than this is the one for you. There is one point I'd like to stress though so that the consumer know's all the points of this purchase; not only is this cabinet heavy it's not easy to put together... You're going to need another set of hands for assembly. I used wood glue at all dowel points to insure the construction... If you choose to do this make sure you have plenty of wet and dry paper towels too clean up the excess glue. Over all I'd say this is a quality product, it's made up of sturdy material and if constructed properly; it will last several life times.
