Reviews
Poor qualityTobinI have a similar metal drawer set from Ikea that was purchased more than 20 years ago. It was challenging to assemble, but 20+ years later it still works great. More recently, I bought a pair of these newer models for my son. They managed to be much harder to assemble, the drawers don't pull out all of the way limiting their usefulness, and they just didn't last. Ended up in a dumpster after less than 5 years.
Love these cabinets. MelissaI purchased 3 of these cabinets years ago when they were about $39. That price made sense because they are pretty lightweight and easily bendable if you are not careful. Now the price has more than doubled and they discontinued the original grey that I have. I know have 7 of these cabinets in 3 color ways. The size is compact but they store lots! Love these I just wish they were a little cheaper because I don’t think the quality is worth the price. I rated lower because of the price.
should be easy to build…MayeannThis drawer that should’ve only taken me an hour tops took me almost 3 hours. I had to wrestle with some of the pieces because they didn’t perfectly line up. It all worked out in the end, but I shouldn’t have to wrestle with my furniture… the last drawer is also a bit tight so it’s harder to pull out, but i think it’s just mine.
Other than that, I do really like this piece. I like the simple design. I chose not to install the casters since I don’t plan to move it around. It does its job, and I have no complaints on that.
Even though it was quite a bit of a nightmare to build, I would probably still buy it again if I need another one, unless I’m able to find a similar one elsewhere at a similar price point.
I have an older modelDianaI have an older model and needed another one so I purchased this one. It seems more flimsy than the older model. It still has the same space though.
Hard to assembleKathrynI love the look of this but it was a beast to put together. The tabs that you have to bend were hard and the drawer rails kept falling off. Not my favorite piece.
Great little cabinet!PauletteSpace saver; cute and functional.
Cheap and uselessNoreenI got one of these after hearing a lot about it. Little did I know the quality has diminished greatly. This is the cheapest piece of junk I’ve ever bought. It’s not even work the 50% off price drop. Thinnest metal possible. Parts came bend and broken. On drawer keeps coming off the track every time I pull it out and the track falls of completely not sure what I need to do to fix it but at this point I may just throw the whole thing away. Waste of money!
Great productJordanExcellent product. Minimalist functional sturdy design, works in many decors. The wheels are a big plus
Small but very usefulMaryI was looking for something small enough to fit in a specific space, but not too small where it's no longer useful. My goal was to have a clean desk and have a place to store things. This is PERFECT. I didn't read the description is much detail (my fault) and was surprised to see this was made of metal. BUT, that did not impact my feelings of this product. It was VERY easy to build and did it during one episode of a series I'm watching.
Highly recommended.
DO NOT BUY THIS P.O.S.HaelI owned one of these many years ago when it was sold as a pre-assembled boxed unit but this model is a piece of crap. You have to assembly it which isn't overly complicated but it doesn't stay together. You can screw or glue this thing.
After a couple of uses the rails fall off repeatedly, the drawers stick, and the top slides off. Don't bother, it's overpriced and not worth the struggle. Would love to give it zero stars.
Horrible AssemblyCrystalI am not even done putting this item together and am definitely considering returning it. The assembly instructions are terrible. The grooves for the drawers to slide on have to be forced in and the material for the panels is flimsy. Nothing lines up. The back panel does not fit properly and there gaps between the back and side panels. This set of drawers is COMPLETE GARBAGE.
Nice look cabinetJanetteThe picture direction on how to assemble was a bit confusing. It was unclear which side of the panels top or bottom and right or left sides. I figured it out myself.
FlimsyNiccusEnjoyed building this with my daughter. Flimsy and I am not too confident with longevity and the durability of the unit.
Nice storage!RayIt could be better made, but what do you expect from a metal drawer cabinet. Assembly was easy. I prefer wood material, just my thought. I like it because of the price and compact size.
Great storageErinPerfect for our virtual learning home classroom. It’s quite a bit smaller than I excepted. But I also like it that way, so the kids can’t shove stuff in it. I did put different handles in it, since I didn’t like the chrome with our decor.
Not as expect.ChrisI searched and found this item but it took times to assemble and it felt flimsy.
When Did this Get So Expensive??KateWe have several of these units in our house. I love them for storage of various things: office supplies, sewing notions, craft tools. They are a bit fiddly to put together until you figure them out. When I bought them, they were literally HALF the price of what they are now...the price increase is ridiculous, IMO. and thus the rating of 4 stars instead of 5 because I don't think they're quite worth the price now. When I bought these, the similar Alex drawers were twice the price of the Helmer, which is why I chose the Helmer; now they're almost the same price.
Have purchased 2 and neither can be put togetherStephanieI have purchased 2 of these and both I have not been able to put together because the hole at the bottom are too small for the screws. It’s impossible to return because the nearest IKEA is many hours away and is very heavy. One of the drawers came warped on the first and another piece bent on the second. I have 2 helmers I purchased several years ago that went together perfectly and have held up great. I don’t know what’s going on. I’m extremely frustrated.
Gotten cheap and flimsy comparedKrisGotten cheap and flimsy compared to my Red Helmet from Europe, 20 years ago!
Keeps falling apartMarieI’ve had this for a few months and the pieces that hold the drawers in place keep falling so the drawers fall as soon as I pull on them. I completely regret buying this. The top keeps popping off too
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.
