I wanted an organized, easy, and affordable way to diminish the clutter in my closet, and >BAM< I found it! I used to have regular storage totes, but every time I needed something, I felt like I had to pull out 17 giant heavy boxes, just to get to something, so drawers seemed like a logical choice. I purchased two, and just as I read in other reviews, all you do is snap off the top lid, and you can effortlessly attach another one on top! And yes, it's plenty stable. It's not wobbly or anything, which was an initial fear of mine.
The overall measurements are accurate for the entire exterior, but in case you're wondering, the interior dimensions of the individual drawers, counts in my book, so I'll share it.
The INTERIOR of the drawers are plenty deep, with about 13 and 1/2 inch length from front to back. I say about, because it's plastic, so if you jam pack it, it slightly expands from the rear, making it 14 inches or so.
Width, from left to right is 19 and a 1/2 inches.
The height of each drawer is barely 7 inches. So if you plan to stack a couple of folded T-Shirts, you can fit two stacks side by side, but only pile about 5 high.
Now, I rated it 5 Stars, and that's not something I do lightly, because I am a picky consumer. It's plastic, and depending on what you're gonna use it for, obviously will determine it's life span. I saw photos, here on Amazon, of it arriving cracked. Thankfully that didn't happen for me. Everyone knows these are not fancy wooden drawers, or heavy duty "Metro Shelf" type frames, but for the price... THEY'RE PERFECT. You get what you pay for, and I am completely satisfied with the efficiency of seeing through the drawers, to know what's inside of each, and the elegance of the design! My closet looks great, now, and it's no longer a 7 hour long ordeal to find something. It's EXACTLY what I was looking for.
I needed something to organize my messy jungle of yarns. This worked out great as I ordered 6 sets and doubled them up.to make 3 rolling carts. It's easy to do as all the parts are generic and just snap together. They're fairly sturdy but I tried making 2 carts of 9 and the weight was too much. They're not the most attractive but because they're clear, it's nice to be able to see what's inside. They seal fairly well and drawers slide easily. I've color coordinated my yarns and now can see what I have available and need to get Crocheting!
I purchased this because I needed a portable drawer chest that could handle a good load. Everything arrived in good condition on time without incident.
The cabinet is very easy to assemble. Each drawer has a "level," as if it were a building. Simply slide the bottom drawer in, attach the second leve, slide that drawer in, attach the third level, slide that drawer in, and attach the top. If you would like to, you can attach the wheels to the bottom as well. If you need to move it to another building, tear it down, transport it, and re-assemble.
I have used the different drawers for various purposes. The unit holds high amounts of weight very well. At one point, I used it as a temporary pantry, where the top drawer held cans of soup, the middle held drinks, and the bottom held other cans of food. That amount of food and packaging is very heavy when held in the same place at once, but this unit stood up to the challenge just fine. The top can also be utilized for storage, but the plastic in the front may slightly bend downwards, which would make it more difficult to close the drawer.
The drawers themselves are spacious, almost as spacious as an average dresser drawer. The width is roughly 19.5 inches, and the height is roughly 7 inches. It can easily hold two stacks of documents, side to side, from the bottom of the drawer to the top, which would be thousands of different pieces of paper.
If you need the extra space, you can stack two of these units. However, keep in mind that the bottom unit will have more weight to support, so if you do choose to stack two units, make sure you place the heavier items in the drawers of the bottom unit.
Overall, I would recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a sturdy, portable cabinet.
I bought this for $26 here on Amazon, not realizing I could have gotten the same one (but a peach color) at Walmart for $16. A little bit frustrating, but serves me right for not looking anywhere but Amazon first. The product itself arrived over a week early, which was awesome. I didn't even use Prime shipping on it and it still got here quickly. It came pre-assembled which was super nice, I just had to attach the wheels which took no longer than a minute and a half. I put my canon 3-in-1 inkjet printer on top, and while it does slightly make the top drawer stick a little bit, it's not that much of an inconvencience because I can still pull open and shut the drawer. The drawers themselves are pretty spacious, too. All in all, a decent cart of this type. I would purchase again if I needed to.
As described, I like them very much.
Just a warning, I ordered two in white and they came in black. I actually prefer black, so I'm happy, but just be aware that you may receive a different color than pictured.
Also, mine came slightly dented, but I am pretty sure that was a shipping issue, as the other one came in a box that was torn up.
The wheels popped right on, they're sturdy and the drawers are deep. Got one for snacks and one for baby clothes. Very Happy.

Please see my picture of this item and Bravo Shoe storange (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00407OTXI/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1).
I bought two of these carts to store my shirts, shorts etc. that did not fit in the dresser. I did not attach the wheels since I was not planning to move it around too much. The cart is the perfect size for storage under the hanging shirts.
Pros:
1) lightweight, easy to move, if needed
2) large enough for sheets storage
3) fits perfectly in the standard closet
Cons:
1) you should not put heavy items in the carts since it is plastic, hence bendable
3) not too good looking, but very good for the closet
I needed a larger "tool kit" for my dog grooming tools. I have 3 dogs and finally "threw in the towel" with my Professional Groomer & decided to bite the bullet and do the dogs at home, myself. Noble task!
The FIRST thing I learned is that you need a LOT of tools to do a good job (I have a white lab/Great Pyrenees mix & TWO Yorkie Poos who look more like poodles than Yorkies)--so I had to outfit with clippers, blades, trimming tools, nail trimmers, combs, brushes, and well, you get the general idea.
THEN, the problem becomes: where to store all this STUFF where I can actually FIND it again???
After some browsing, I found this and I'm really happy with it. It's the "perfect fit" for my needs--I use a glass-topped desk for my grooming table & this (without wheels attached) fits neatly under the desk with just enough room left over for a small trash can.
The drawers are roomy, slide easily enough (without falling out), and the depth accommodates everything I need to stow. To make finding things easier, I'm using some plastic office supply trays to organize shears, combs, etc. into separate "compartments" within the top drawer. VERY happy with my purchase; highly recommended!
Have a question about this drawer cart? Leave a comment & I'll be happy to help you, if I can.
UPDATE 8/19/14: Because I use this to store grooming supplies, I've "double stick taped" a surge protector/power strip to the top of the unit, so I can quickly and easily plug in 3 sets of clippers. I use the top of the unit as an extra "shelf" while I'm grooming. Very happy with this handy storage solution--it's great--the longer I use it, the more I like it!
Fast delivery. Came as described, all I had to do was add the wheels it was very easy although you don't have to. looks like it will last long if you don't put too much in it. I use it for clothes so it has space.
Bought this because I live in a small 1bdrm apartment in NY and need something for my newborn to put her things in. The plastic comes assembled just have to add the wheels if you want. The size isn’t too bad.. I’m 5’9 it’s about knee height on me and the width is about bear hug type. Only wish that amazon had one that was 4-6 draws n not just three draws. But for now it does the job for newborn baby clothes
I needed a quick and inexpensive solution for my son's toys, and this has been just perfect so far. It's certainly not stylish, but I was looking more for function anyway so I'm not bothered by that. I love that the drawers are see-through as it makes it much easier for him to find the toys he's looking for. I've noticed that there are fewer toy messes around the house now too, since he doesn't have to rip out a bunch of toys to find the ones he's looking for. I'm thinking about getting more to store other things around the house!
The unit came completely assembled, except for the wheels. We just had to remove a few pieces of tape and we were ready to start adding toys. A huge bonus since putting furniture together with a toddler around is pretty much a giant disaster! We opted not to use the wheels so I'm not sure how easy they are to install or if they roll smoothly.
I highly recommend for anyone who needs to get things organized on a budget.
