Review on πŸ—„οΈ Black 3 Drawer File Cabinet by Monarch Specialties - Optimal Filing Cabinet by Carol Perez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I will not buy this brand again

I got a decent result in the end, but this product has a lot of annoying problems. The screws that hold the drawer slides in place are tiny, finely threaded, and small in diameter, so they tend to loosen rather than hold. In contrast, I recently made a similar product from the Sauder brand, and their zippers are large, heavily threaded barrels by comparison. Instructions are a nightmare of poor planning - look at step 8 in the photo, which is actually dozens of steps grouped into a sprawling heap (like most other "steps"). I've backed up and disassembled partitions several times to include the part I had previously overlooked. Other brands do it with better quality parts, clearer step-by-step instructions, and fewer parts than this Monarch Specialties model.
