If using letter size folders ... how deep is it from front to back?Does the bottom drawer slide out to reach the bottom folders?

I'm not sure what you mean in your first question - it's 17in deep. The bottom drawer can slide all the way out. The draws aren't 'attached' like normal draws - it's just a metal rack that the draws sit in - the drawers can actually slip out very easily (almost too easily).

It is about 15-16 inches from front to back, if you over fill the top draw and pull it out it will tip over. It is great for filing a small amount of stuff, but found it kinda wobbly when filled to capacity. However, it is great and you can pull the drawers all of the way out.

The cart is 17" deep. The bottom drawer does slide out. It can be awkward to pull out the drawers, especially if the drawers are full. I like the size though because I keep it in a closet.

front to back is 16 1/2 inches. Bottom draw will slide out to reach folders but you have to be careful when putting it back. If you push it too far it will tip over.

Good, Question already accurately answered.. Please note - Drawer depths (front to back) are approx. 15 1/4."This did not bother me too much when first received, but it is becoming more of an irritation the more I use it.

The depths of the drawers is 1 and 3/8".........it seems everyone's is a different depth!

I am not sure exactly what you mean by that, but the drawers are fairly deep and do slide most of the way out. I am very happy with this cabinet. I use it for household and business records-so probably medium duty.

if using as letter-size folders, there are two sections in each drawer for this. Files are front to back.. If using for legal size folders, there would only be one section per drawer - the files would be turned sidewise left to right. Hope this helps..................

Maybe, is the only answer I can provide. My letter hanging file frame went into a standard metal file cabinet which is assured to fit standard letter size frames. I measured the inside of the frame which is 12" but the outside is about 12 1/4" to 12 1/2". If there is some room for the frame it will be okay. If the letter size manila folders scrape the inside of the drawer, probably not. Sorry to be so ambiguous.

The drawers are designed to be the right size for hanging files, so there's no extra room at the bottom. I use letter size hanging files, so there is about four inches of space to the side of the folders if you wanted to put something there.

Yes, only the bottom drawer holds files and the top drawer is about 5 inches or so deep.

I have letter size folders which fit left side to right side. The legal size would fit front to back. there are adjustment holes for different size legal folders or custom made folders. I hope this helps explain it better. Front adjustment hole to back adjustment hole is about 16". I don't have any legal folders to check it exactly.

I do use the bottom right as a file drawer but the files fit into the drawer sideways. They included the rails for the file folders to hang from. The drawer is notched so you can use the rails for letter size or legal size folders.

Since you don't qualify what you mean by depth, and this item can be used upright (with slots opening on top) or laying flat (with slots opening toward you), I'll qualify my measurements by saying that I'm using this item upright -- as it appears in the photo to the left. With the exception of the first slot, which is only 3-3/4" high and the rear slot being 8-1/4" high, the height of the 3 middle slots is 8-3/4". The depth of each slot is 1-5/8" and the width is 13-1/4". To put it in usage terms. The slots will hold between 3-6 files each (depending on thickness) in the 4 taller slots with approximately 1-1/2" width to spare when using standard "letter size" file folders -or- roughly 1/2 ream of paper with 2" width to spare when using 8.5" x 11" paper. You can put a few folders, 8.5" x 11" notepads, or paper in the front pocket, but they will bow forward in this position. Using this item on it's side would allow this 5th pocket to be used exactly as the others because the shorter 3-3/4" front barrier is now on top. If used upright, this pocket is best used for CD/DVDs, smaller notepads, small manuals, notecards, or envelopes.

Filing? No; it isn't quite large enough. I currently have a ream of standing on it's long (11") edge in the drawer. It just clears the top. I would say that the internal dimensions of the drawer are 18.5 long, 13 deep and an 8 clearance (height) but a 6 high drawer. Dimensions may not be exact but they are close and are, of course, in inches.

I haven't had any problem with the file drawer, but i haven't over filled it yet. The middle drawer bottom kept falling out of it's slot, so I hot glued it. The other drawers seem ok, but are not as deep as the desk itself, so there's some wasted space there. They do come with glides, the inexpensive type.

As far as specific dimension, I can't give you because I am at school and the unit is at home, but I can help you otherwise. There is no "Middle" drawer. Not sure why, but they made the top drawer look like 2 drawers. The bottom drawer is the only drawer specifically built, and big enough for file folders. It has railing for hanging folders. The other 2 drawers do not have room for hanging folders. The top drawer is just slightly shallower than the bottom drawer. The really long drawer is very shallow but is good for sticky notes, pens, pencils, etc. The unit works well, but is made of "particle board," which is made entirely of sawdust and glue. For Particle Board, the unit is incredibly strong, but has its limits because of the material used to build the unit. When building this unit, it is bet to have a couple of people working with it, because it is most weak when it is not together. Once it is put together, the strength goes up exponentially. Forgive the late answer, I have been busy with 18 credits, and thus haven't really had time to do much else. Hope this helps. Eric.

Folders hang side to side. Drawer doesn't pull completely out to prevent it from tipping over. Note, the drawers are small.

Yes, the bottom drawer is for file folders. The top drawer is your usual desk drawer size, well, maybe a little deeper.

Actually you can hang 2 rows letter file folders in each drawer. The HUGE amount file storage space what I really liked about this file cabinet!!
