I purchased this for our business and once I received it I immediatly sent it back. Outside the fact that it was very cheap materials (should have know since it was cheaply priced), it was also poorly manufactured. The sides were bowed and we couldn't even put it together with it leaning. It would have been worth it to spend a little bit more and get a quality product.

This piece does exactly what it's supposed to do... serving as a good storage unit for papers, mail, etc.

It's just a little cheaply built for the price they charge.

-- Sides are melamine coated pressboard (the cheap stuff)
-- Internal dividers are corrugated cardboard. Thinner than a shipping box.
-- Back is 1/8 inch cardboard, held on by nails.
-- I was able to drive the nails through the back and into the sides of the unit using only my fingers--that's how weak it is.

Includes labels, glue for the dowel pins, and clear instructions too. This is the highest quality part of the operation.

Went together in about 15 minutes and I didn't have any tools. Have a hammer? 10 minutes tops.


...BUT its one of the least expensive ones out there, so, what are you gonna do, ya know?

I was a little disappointed with this purchase. I was hoping it would last me a few years, I'm not so sure it will. When putting it together the glue and four little wooden pegs would not support the frame up. I had to add 6 screws to hold the shelf together. After doing that it still was a little flimsy, but it did stand up. When purchasing it I didn't realize that the actual letter compartments are only made out of cardboard. We will see if it lasts...
