Excellent fitment throughout. Each and every hole was in precisely the correct position. Some of the holes for the locking device still had a bit of loosely attached material remaining but it was easily removed with a screwdriver. Perhaps the factory needs to sharpen/replace that one tool.

The glue provided is a somewhat thick material, OK for some applications but difficult when trying to lay a thin line, especially during drawer assembly. I have sent them a note suggesting that they provide Elmer's WOOD glue rather than the included glue. But I acknowledge that after working with wood for 30 years that if the glue doesn't ooze out of the seam than I didn't use enough. It's the glue that holds these things really tight for a long time and it should be used liberally. So get some Elmer's glue, at least their White Multi Purpose but preferably the wood glue, and use it instead of the provided glue.

I read the reviews before purchasing this file cab. Okay, I thought, it might be harder to assemble than I would have hoped, but I bought it anyway.

On the plus side, it was delivered to my door the day after I ordered it. I opened it, and went through the parts list. It's good that they give some extra parts, because I dropped a wood dowel down an air register.

Now the bad side. The instructions say it takes 35 minutes, and need two people. Well, it took four hours, and one person is enough.

My biggest problem was the top drawer front board was not drilled (piece #8, if you're a Staples QC person reading this). It wasn't worth returning the whole thing, but I'm paying to have the holes pre-drilled. So I had to measure where the holes should be drilled veeeery carefully, because the holes intersect with other pieces. Then I had to drag out my drill, and make sure I wasn't drilling too deep. So despite the extra work, I was able to put it together okay.

Observations: The wood veneer is very thin. There are noticable scratches in a couple of places, even though I was being careful, and assembled it on a carpet. Check the dimensions you need. The drawers are not very deep. They recommend anchoring the back of the cabinet to a wall, and I understand why. If you open the top drawer, it is more prone to tipping than a deeper file cabinet. I recommend you keep heavier contents in the bottom drawers, and keep the top drawer a little lighter.

I'm giving it three stars, because of the price. But I'm not sure I would buy it again.

    Instructions are not for a novice...The First instruction of dowel depth is unclear...causing installer to drive dowel through the top panel...causing user to patch holes with wood puddy...hoping stain will match.

      What type of installation will be needed?
      Asked on 7/10/2012 by donna from woodbridge VA

      1 answer

      • A:

        The product is shipped in flat pack so assembly is required, but after that no installation is needed as the file cabinet is self supporting.

    • Q:

      the file cabinet is listed as being "cherry" which would normally be a dark somewhat reddish color. The picture on line makes it look more oak colored. Please advise re the color. thank you
      Asked on 7/2/2012 by jillsey from buckeye, arizona

      1 answer

      • A:

        One reviewer who purchased two mentioned that the actual cabinet colors were inconsistent between two cabinets; although the majority of reviewers said the cherry perfectly matched their other cherry furniture, suggesting it has a good red color. Even the reviewer who said the colors were inconsistent between the two said it would not have been a problem if only one had been purchased.

    • Q:

      I'm considering buying 2 of these but I also have 2 concerns. 1) Does the back have the same finish as the sides and front? In my home office, the backs of these cabinets will be visible. 2) Is the color consistency an issue with Z-Line? I read one of the reviews where another customer was very disappointed because the 2 he purchased together did not match.

      • CUSTOMER CARE

        A:

        The finish of the back panel is the same as the sides and front of the unit. It is not made out of the same material but it does match. As for the color variation, here is the paragraph about the subject in our warranty document.
        INFORMATION ON COLOR VARIATIONS & FINISHES:
        Some natural variations occurring in wood, or other natural materials are inherent to their character, and thus cannot be avoided. Therefore they are not considered to be defects. Z Line Designs does not warrant the color-fastness or matching of colors, grains, textures or other such materials. Customers’ own materials selected by and used at the request of a user is therefore not warranted by Z-Line Designs.

    • Q:

      Are the drawer bottoms solid enough to hold items not hung in file folders? I saw a file cabinet in the store that advised that the bottoms were not designed to bear weight and only to place items in the hanging files. That would not work for what I need this file cabinet for.
      Asked on 9/18/2011 by Anonymous

      1 answer

      • A:

        This file cabinet is for hanging files only. The drawer bottom is not a weight bearing surface. The glide rails are designed to hold up to a maximum of 20 pounds. A solid wood finish, with heavy duty glide rails is a better choice.

        A:

        This cabinet is constructed of pressboard with veneer overlay. Z-line builds high quality furniture, so you can be sure that this cabinet is a solid construction and completely stable. Factory installed lock for the top drawers only and includes 2 keys. I have researched and was not able to locate a wood file cabinet that all four drawers lock. For further assistance you may contact the Staples furniture team directly at 877-638-8001.

    • Q:

      Is this file cabinet made of actual wood or from plywood with a veneer? If it is mixed how much and which parts are solid wood versus wood products?

      I found this item online and recently went to a store to check on the construction quality. I was disappointed that this item was not available for viewing in store.

      How solid and stable is the file cabinet? Does it sway or rock side to side?

      Thank you!
