Thumbs Up

Very sturdy and looks great.

was destroyed on arrival

this arrived beat to pieces - appeared well made but could not withstand being pulverized by the shipping company. Price was amazing but I hesitate to order again. It was a giant. pain to return to sams club.

Great Lateral File

Love our new Alera Four Drawer lateral file. Shipped well protected and arrived with no defects. Drawers slide very easily. We have it on a fairly thick wall-to-wall carpet, in a corner, and it needed no leveling. The slight tilt back that it needs was perfect. Very sturdy cabinet. Would buy again.

True to size

Great addition to our closet.

Great size and durability

We have limited space at our office and it fit perfectly in the space we have. Shopping was quick, it was packaged well and it’s very durable.

Great match but lower in price vs other places.

I love this file cab. Very strong and easy to use. Glad I was able to get it at Sams. Delivery was right on target.

I'd say 3.5 stars if I could give partial. It's not packed super well, in my opinion. The top and corners are protected, but the front and back are just shrink wrapped. Consequently, mine came with a couple of minor scratches but no dents. The paint scratches quite easily! I made several white marks on it just from transferring files from the old cabinet. These are just aesthetic things. Functionally, it's 4 stars in my book. It's a 190 pounds, so not super heavy. That's just enough to be sturdy while making it movable. I'd go with a heavier and more solid cabinet if I knew I'd keep in place for a long time. It comes with adjustable rails for legal and letter size along with other size options. The rails are robust and work well. The only item on function I don't like is the gap at the top of each drawer. It's too wide such that it would be very easy to get a screwdriver or other tool to pry it open. It's simply not as secure as I'd like or as tight as other file cabinets I've owned. Still, it's a solid option for a budget level cabinet. Just have the proper expectations for what you are getting. It works for my needs, but I would get a tougher option if I knew it would stay in place for several years.

Alera File Cabinet Purchase

Item arrived on time and was as described. This is a well-made, relatively heavy file cabinet, more so than I expected. It took two of us and a dolly to get it into the house. The drawers are deep and spacious. I particularly like that the file hanging frames come with the cabinet and can be set up for the size files you need. Very efficient. Recommended.

nice

We like that it comes with a key to lock very good for files

How can I be qualified to assess a file cabinet? Easy, I've used them all my life. This one is, by far, the finest in the land or at least the finest I've ever known. Here's the crazy part, Home Essentials Direct seems to provide a most-favored vendor in the storage section. I've bought them before. I'll let you look at the product and prices. They suck. They're tinny, make a racket and just feel cheap, because they are cheap. Go for the heft. When it comes to file cabinets look for pounds, kilorgrams, horse hands or whatever. Heavier the better. Why? because of what it does for the runners inside. You won't be yanking out a squeaky drawer that feels like junk, you'll be pulling out a silky smooth drawer in a cabinet that holds twice as much as those other tin buckets. Here's the kicker, they're just about the same price. Thank me now. Adorn me with flowers. Shoot cupid arrows my way because I knoweth what I am talking about for a change. Don't ever let anyone tell you size and heft don't matter.

Great Filing Cabinet

Very nice sturdy construction for the price! Drawers fully extend which really matters when you are using for legal files. Enjoy the pulls extending all the way across the drawers. Convenient!

Ugh

Once assembled, this file cabinet is fine. The process, though, to get it to fine is awful. I had to use a hammer and brute force to get EVERY SINGLE metal hanger in.
