Is it big enough for letter and legal files?

Two-drawer wood files of this size typically take letter-size hanging files; legal files need a deeper drawer, so check the interior depth before buying. Measure your folders against the drawer before you commit.

Most rustic wood two-drawer files at this level have no lock. If privacy matters, plan on a separate lockbox for sensitive papers.

How much weight can the drawers hold?

Wood drawer slides on cabinets like this usually handle light to moderate loads, well under what a steel file cabinet takes. Keep the top drawer for lighter files and spread heavy folders across both.

Does it need assembly?

Flat-pack wood cabinets usually arrive unassembled with the tools and hardware included. Expect to spend an hour or so on setup and to need a second person to square the frame.

Will the walnut finish match my desk?

Rustic walnut stains vary, so the tone may read lighter or redder than a photo. Order one and check it in your room's light before buying a second piece.
