Review on πŸ“ Lorell File Cabinet 24.5H x 14.3W x 18D Black: Stylish and Functional Storage Solution by Cassandra Sanchez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Absolutely mediocre in every way

This machine is totally mediocre in every way, special only in its efficiency (not "value") and blandness. The device is delivered almost fully assembled. You just unscrew the knobs. located in the bottom drawer of the device (see the problem?). Luckily, there's a gap between the drawers and/or the sides of the unit large enough to accommodate your choice of knife, pen, or prybar to open. no problem. The handles are cheap plastic and the holes are smaller than the screws that come with it. Luckily, the screws are metal and big enough to gnaw a hole when you screw them in. I had to screw them in first before assembling the unit to make sure they went straight in, but that was a personal choice. Someone can level it better than me, and it's not necessary. The drawers pull out well and the unit is light enough to move, but it's not "mobile". No wheels, no way to attach them. There's no lock either, but there is room in the drawers for a locking mechanism (you'll have to cut a hole in the front of the drawer for the lock), but I don't think you'll want that. If it was locked, a good pull would definitely break something (knob, drawer, lock, etc.) intentionally or accidentally. It's a perfectly adequate unit for some hanging binders, some stationery, and shelves for extra storage (which, to be honest, is exactly what I wanted). If quality, safety, portability or unique design are important to you, look elsewhere. It's not like this.
