Flimsy stickers used
The cabinet is nicely made except for one key detail.
The handles at the top front of the 3 drawers are covered with a colored sticker. The sticker is used instead of actually painting the handle to match the cabinet. The problem is that the sticker is very flimsy and scratches, peels, scars very very easily.
After just a week of use it already isn't brand new looking and you can see this will be a problem.

love my file cabinet
I purchased this cabinet to serve as my new bedside table/ file cabinet, and it is doing the job well. The cabinet was easy to assemble, is a delightful color, and holds everything I need it to. Wonderful product.

Love the quality
So easy to install the wheels. It comes fully assembled besides the wheels. Love the color and the quality, and they are pretty lightweight so they're easy too be around. Great purchase, I bought 2!

Great design
Good looking and functional. Looks great, clean lines and the retro mint color is a nice touch for home or office - unlike other boring file cabinets. Solid construction, feels sturdy. Arrived carefully packed and in one piece. Locking wheels are helpful. Great price, especially considering how expensive office furniture can be.

Inaccurate color in photo
These file cabinets are made from welded steel, and have good build quality. There are no sharp edges or poorly-designed seams; and despite warnings that "Customer assembly is required", all that had to be done was bolt on the bottom casters with the included wrench -- a task that took less than 90 seconds to complete.
However, the paint quality of these cabinets is sub-par; there is no apparent clear coat (just the enamel from the base color), so these cabinets have a bit of a blotchy appearance upon close examination. It is only visible upon close inspection of the enamel.
I will say the cabinets are finished completely; even the rails are painted appropriately. It's a nice finishing touch other manufacturers tend to ignore.
The drawers do not extend fully, as only a single-rail system is used.
I found the color of the cabinets in the photo to be inaccurate; the cabinets are much more green (admittedly, much closer to "mint") than in the photos. It's unfortunate CB2 doesn't offer free color chips for download. That would solve this problem immediately.
For the price, you will not find an industrial modern filing cabinet with such a surprisingly good build quality. I highly recommend the product -- just make sure your color palette is flexible enough for a few surprises.

Cabinets worth waiting for...
When I ordered two of these TPS mint file cabinets they were on backorder. I am so glad that I waited for them to arrive instead of opting to get another white one (which I also love). These mint cabinets are great looking and match our walls perfectly. I am using them for both storage and for end tables. They have alot of room and are well made-and the wheels are so convenient for moving them around when necessary. I highly recommend these mint cabinets-as well as the white ones too.

Beautiful aesthetic, well-made
Packaged well, nice lines, great color. We've had it for several months now and have been definitely impressed with the quality and functionality.

Best looking filing cabinets
Great cabinets for my home office. Only complaint is that all three had slight defects (dings, paint chip).

The Whole Family Uses the TPS
We bought this for our children to keep their useful materials for creating homework & projects and storing everyday tools. The whole family uses it as the "go-to" storage-we can wheel it to an activity and use things straight out the drawers to another table or room. We will buy more considering that they are robust & affordable. So happy that CB2 sells this product -there is no other like it.

Bought several, they have lasted years
We bought about 4 of these cabinets in white for our office about 3 years ago; I work for a university, and they are primarily used by a pool of student workers. The cabinets see frequent use and are moved around constantly, but they are in like-new shape.
They have worked so well that I bought one in mint - love the new color - for my home office. It is completely loaded with files and supplies, but the cabinet can take it. The drawers open and close smoothly, and cabinet overall is sturdy enough to handle a lot of weight.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!
Re-doing an office and popped into CB2 only to find every item I needed. An hour later I had the entire office furnished. These cute filing cabinets get more compliments than anything and they are
extremely roomy and can fit so much. I bought two!
A must have!!
