Selected User Reviews For DEVAISE 3 Drawer Mobile File Cabinet with Lock, Under Desk Metal Filing Cabinet for Legal/Letter/A4 File, Fully Assembled Except Wheels, Black
The file cabinet is one of my favorite parts of the house. The drawers glide easily, the lock works well (once you get it locked), it rolls easily so I can get it out from under the desk, the drawers are adequate in size, and it is reasonably attractive (for a file cabinet). So why three stars? THE KEY RUINS MY DAY. These keys are difficult to use in a locking file cabinet, which I require. In addition, I'd like to keep the key on my person. However, despite the fact that it comes with two keys, they are oddly shaped, large plastic objects that are difficult to carry or use, and bend in the middle. I'll try to include a picture to demonstrate what I'm talking about. I went to two locksmiths, but neither of them was able to duplicate the keys. Although the key has a number, I have been unable to locate replacements online. I'd give it a five-star rating if I could just buy plain metal replacement keys. If you don't mind the cabinet being locked, it's a good (if pricey) choice; however, if you need to carry the keys with you, it's a hassle. If the locking feature is important to you, I'd suggest looking at other options. I'd return it if it wasn't so big and heavy and, aside from the keys, a good choice.
The cabinet appears to be quite sturdy. The cabinet arrived in a package with styrofoam and plastic-reinforced corners, and it performed admirably. Except for the locking mechanism, which is a bit of a joke, the cabinet appears to be very solid, looks good, and functions reasonably well. Even when it is locked, the top drawer simply opens (but cannot be closed). You can wiggle open the middle and bottom drawers. So I wouldn't trust it with anything, and I was hoping to use it to keep chemicals in my garage out of my toddler's reach. I suppose I'm in need of a better solution. Update. br>br> The seller contacted me and gave me instructions on how to adjust the cabinet's locking mechanism (see photo). All three drawers are now locked after adjusting. I'm going to give it a one-star rating.
" This filing cabinet went above and beyond my expectations - It's extremely well-built, with screw-free construction. To prevent tipping, there are casters and a roller in the front. The file drawers' bottoms are sturdy, and they all open and close smoothly. It's a nice design and comes in a muted shade I'd call a soft eggshell white, which is a nice change from the standard stark white. br>br>Putting it together was simple and only required inserting the drawers, screwing on the casters, and installing the anti-skid. tip roller, and attaching the file drawer's side rails (I recommend reading the instructions on inserting the rails, as they're a tight fit and must be inserted at an angle). br>br>The file cabinet was packaged in a way I'd never seen before; It was protected on all four sides by hard molded styrofoam and hard plastic. This is one product that will not be damaged in transit unless it is thrown off a cliff! br>br>I can't say that about many products these days, but this file cabinet is a fantastic deal. Devaise, you did a fantastic job!.
My office needed more file storage space, so I purchased this Devaise 3 drawer file cabinet, which has a built-in lock. To match my office decor, I chose black, and it looks great on my desk. It's quite substantial and roomy, I must say. It has five moving wheels, making it simple to maneuver. The main file drawer is spacious and can accommodate a large number of documents. The lock, which comes with two keys, is located on the top drawer. I've attempted to open it without using keys, but it's extremely difficult to do so without damaging the metal. The movement is quiet and smooth. What's more, there's no need to set up anything.
The cabinet and the locks are both too light. br>br> I received an email from these people offering me $ 30 in exchange for my time. 00 to request a revision of my review. I'm not interested in their money, as I stated in my first review. We were going on vacation, so this was the only reason it was not returned. This cabinet isn't even close to being worth $50. If that's the case, it'll cost you a hundred dollars. Even with the locks engaged, simply pulling the drawers open does not require much force. I looked around town and found cabinets this size made of 1/2 plywood veneer (not particle board) for just over $100 at office supply stores. 00 . I even bought office wheels for it because the wheels that came with it are proprietary and I couldn't use them on my hardwood floors.
It was delivered fully assembled, with the exception of the wheels, which must be screwed in. It's great that it has an anti-bacterial component. To solve a problem I was having with the old cabinet, I added a front-facing tipping wheel. I also appreciate the fact that the files can be arranged in various ways. A bonus for me was that the small drawer came with an extra stationary tray. This is a huge improvement over my previous one.
I've always wanted a file cabinet for some reason; it makes me feel like a powerful executive. That's exactly what this cabinet did for me. The build quality is excellent, and the matte black finish is stunning. It's also very simple to move around if you don't like it where it is. It was also the ideal location for my printer, which was heavier than sin. br>br>I would highly recommend this cabinet to anyone; it has three lockable drawers for all of your important documents; now I just need to fill it with more important documents.
The Seller responded quickly and replaced the item with one that arrived even faster and in perfect condition. It's incredibly stable, which I appreciate. It's sturdy and well-balanced, with smooth-gliding drawers. The wheels under the bottom drawer provide even more stability to keep it from tipping over. This seller and the quality of this file cabinet have both wowed me. I would strongly suggest it.
