Given the number of negative reviews regarding products of this type in general, I was apprehensive about buying any of them. This unit had the best customer ratings so far, so I took the plunge. It takes a little time to assemble this unit, but instructions were clear, all parts were in the shipment in good condition, and in fact there were several extra of all kinds of screws and other small parts that one tends to drop and lose in the process of assembly. I would recommend to the company that they drill pilot holes for the in-cabinet drawer guides and for the casters. The locations were correctly marked, but they use hard wood, so I had to make a hole using an awl so that the screws could be inserted. There are a lot of screws involved, and an electric drill for enlarging holes and installing screws came in very handy. If you assemble this, be aware that theres some play in the drawer guides inside the cabinet. If drawers overlap or collide in the final unit, its relatively easy to reposition the offending guide(s) slightly to eliminate this. One other thing: the drawer bottoms sag if you install them with the finished side inside the drawer. I had read complaints in reviews of similar produts about drawer bottoms sagging and causing problems with the drawer below. I simply reversed the drawer bottoms, keeping the unfinished side up, and I have convex bottoms that hold more weight and dont interfere with adjacent drawers. If I ever want to flip them again, its pretty easy to do.
Excellent under-desk drawer unit
