Missing parts, poor design, bad insructionsAnonymous reviewerI have purchased and put together many Ikea products over the years, and have loved nearly all of them. This arrived days later than promised, the box was open, parts were missing, and even if it had arrived intact with all parts ontime, the instructions were horrible. Although not fully assembled (waiting for missing parts), it is not nearly as sturdy as I expect from IKEA products. 1
Sturdy but document sizing offGladyzSturdy and still looks like new after 4 years. The only issue is that the bottom drawer must be for european sized hanging folders. Standard american letter size folders are too small for the drawer so the documents dont sit right.4
After 3 years still awesome!JohnWe love everything about our little cabinet. It’s durable, works great, has held up over some serious use and just looks great. For our purposes it serves us perfectly (we don’t use it for files). And oddly enough we had no issues assembling it, maybe it got harder? Not sure. The open top is perfect for us as well and we have used it for so many different things including holding racks for audio mixers and equipment. Overall couldn’t be happier. This is my first review ever on ikea but after seeing this cabinet getting some poor reviews I couldn’t help but speak out. 5
Buyer Beware -- Too big to fit well under the small Idasen desk that Ikea sells.MartinOn the plus side, this looks good, seems solid and sturdy, and I like the design. But the negatives outweigh the positives. As several others mentioned, this is a bear to put together. It was a 2 hour job, which involved bending metal tabs with a screwdriver. Injured by fingers doing that. It's also described as fitting well under a desk, but that doesn't hold true for the smaller Idasen desk that Ikea sells. Third, to take this back I'm told I have to disassemble. That will take a long time, and I'm afraid I'll damage it in the process. Ikea really should rethink that policy for items that involve this level of assembly. Finally, I agree that this piece is too expensive for what it is, especially when you factor in the amount of time it takes to assemble. Ugh, one of the few bad experiences I've had with Ikea.1
Great item!ArwenWe are using it as a side table. It was a little difficult to put together without a second person holding the sides.5
Perfect little organizerJuneLove this little organizer! Perfect on wheels!5
NOW FITS NORMAL FOLDERS!ElizabethAs everyone says, this is a big pain to assemble. With patience and persistence, the instructions really are accurate. I'm unsure about the quality, as I have not really used it - it doesn't seem like it's going to hold up to regular use (mainly the drawers) - but we shall see. I was thrilled to find that there is now an adapter in the lower drawer that makes it fit normal sized USA folders. I returned the A4s I had purchased based on the other reviews.3
God AWFULPaulWho ever design this steaming pile was a complete idiot and has zero care for user experience. Our holes were poorly milled, the drawers were uneven, nothing went together properly and felt CHEAP. I wasted 300$ on a POS drawer that will be going straight in the trash. Move on from this one and find something better. My 100$ target filing cabinet is made better than this. If I could get my money back I would.1
Clever design, beautiful and sturdyRachelBought this to accompany the 2 IDASEN cabinets already in my office. I love them - very high quality and built to last. Far better than other industrial/professional grade furniture I’ve used. End result is clean, stylish (the colors and rich paint tone cannot be understated), and highly functional. Assembly: anything with drawers will require more extensive assembly but even with that, we found the assembly to be clever, minimizing the amount of actual screwing needed. Pieces fit beautifully together revealing a very thoughtful design. Especially appreciate the leveling mechanism on the drawers so they can be adjusted to sit perfectly flush in the base - brilliant! I’ve assembled the cabinets but my 12 year old built this one for me without assistance. I think they just require patient assembly- give yourself time so you don’t have to rush.5
Good QualityPaulThis was a little more challenging to assemble than other IKEA items but it works really well and is really solid once you start using it.5
Practical PerformanceGretchenPerfect size, flexible and oh, so useful! We bought one for everyone in the office!5
Not really practicalLeslieOf course, nice design, but the "no top" idea is not a good idea and waste of space. Pretty, but need to return2
Impact driver required?!CheukNot an expert Ikea assembler. Took me two hours with several breaks. Overall not too difficult to put together but needed to take out my impact driver for parts 193736 & 193737 (don't know what they are called). And all the pointy screws require some muscle. Drawer's nice looking. My Brother printer fits nicely on top.4
love itEricThis is a great product. Just needs to be a little cheaper5
It's a nice little fileRobertaIt's a nice little file holder on wheels. It would be better if there was a way to lock the wheels, it moves very easily on my wood floors.5
Great lookingAnonymousThis was more difficult than most IKEA pieces to assemble (and we’re pretty experienced), but we’re glad we persevered. It’s stylish and sturdy! The drawer slides are ingenious and work well.4

Material

What is steel?

Steel has unique characteristics when it is stretched and shaped since it remains strong. It provides strength to everything from skyscrapers and cars to bed frames and outdoor furniture. The steel industry is moving in the direction of more energy-efficient production and stronger steel qualities. It doesn’t lose any of its properties when recycled and today steel is one of the most recycled materials in the world.
