Review on 🗄️ Calico Designs 51112BOX Lab Cabinet Drawers: Efficient Storage Solution for Lab & Scientific Products and Furniture by Jared Coleman

Nice little cabinet, well built and functional. It has a large filing drawer and two smaller ones above it for stationery/pens/scissors etc. It's an all metal construction with a wide plastic tray on top so I bought it where I have my printer. It's the perfect size for a home office to organize bills and important documents. I expected that, but with two notable points; "Ease" assembly is somewhat relative and it arrived with a slight dent on the side, although it was very well packaged. Assembly consists of using one screw to install the casters in the groove on the bottom and using two screws and a plate to attach the wheel attached to the box (see photos). That's all well and good, but the effort it took me to tighten the screws was ridiculous - I'm a big man and by no means weak, but I had to get up and use all my weight to get the screws through the pre-drilled holes holes. I'm talking about the strength of muscle tension, even after making sure they're properly aligned. It could just be that the pre-drilled hole in my particular device wasn't big enough or the supplied screw was too big, but it wasn't a cakewalk. Protectors and bubble wrap covering the surface. The box was not damaged so I can only assume that it either fell very badly or that the dent/buckle in the metal case was a manufacturing error. In my case, it's small and is closer to the back of the case, so it's not very noticeable. All in all, I'm not sure it costs almost twice as much as some of the $60 basic cabinets you can buy, but it's not bad. I'm not dissatisfied with that. I'm not sure I would buy it again instead of one of these cheaper ones, but having it now I'd say I'm reasonably satisfied. My complaints are definitely not worth returning, and they may have just pertained to that one filing cabinet, so take it for what it's worth.
