Personally, I'd buy a
different drawer unit if I wanted to store office documents or have it
in a home office that receives visitors. However, this
unit is great for arts and crafts storage, especially if you're on a
budget and you expect paint splashes to fall on it. Said differently, I
wouldn't cry if this got ruined by my paints.
Assembly is easy, and the resulting unit is light, cute and compact.
I suggest reinforcing the drawers base with thick cardboard to make it stronger.
DOWNSIDES
- > The unit only has castor on the back legs. It had been great if it had it on the four legs. They are OK to move the unit, by lifting the front and rolling the back. Yet, if the drawers are full, they aren't the best rolling castors.
- > The front lowest side has a lot of empty space that could have been used to place another drawer.
- > The back crossbar doesn't properly protect the drawers rear. The bar is meant to act as a stop for the drawers not to fall off backwards, but the crossbar is a bit too thin and on the short side; shorter than they should be, I think.
