How far do the drawers open? I hate when they don't open far enough to get to the back files.

That will happen with this model it opens little more than half way. That's to avoid tipping over when drawer is full. Hope this was helpful

When fully open 5" of drawer remains inside the cabinet. I just measured it.

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.

Unfortunately they can't. Also, when you move the whole cabinet, the drawers will easily slide out from the front of the cabinet. But still a great buy at the end of the day.

Front to back the file drawers are 24". That's a standard size. The drawers are also standard for width and height. However, the cabinet isn't weighted enough at the back. So when you pull a loaded drawer out all the way to get at something in the back, the file cabinet lurches and tips forward very, very easily, usually suddenly and without any notice. You have to grab it quickly and it's heavy to lift it back into place. That's not easy to do because of the cabinet's weight and size. Feels awkward. Even though the price point is low, I don't think it's a good buy and wouldn't buy it again. Front to back the file drawers are 24". That's a standard size.

The opening at the top of the drawers is 10 cm wide, but there is a metal lip around the top that is 1 cm wide all the way around, so the actual opening at the top is really only 8 cm wide. The drawers are 4 cm deep and 40 cm long. Hope that helps!

They are 12" long retracted and 23" when fully extended. This allows a 12"-13" drawer to open enough for the back of the drawer to be easily reached.

The one I have has one long drawer and is fully enclosed (bottom, sides, back) so if you don't want to use it for hanging files, then it's just a drawer. I see now they make it with 2 drawers. That would be much better. This is a very sturdy, beautiful piece of furniture. I have the matching desk and book case as well. Highly recommend this furniture!

The back is closed. Only the front is open. I use the open portion to store papers, flash drives, camera, etc.

The drawers do extend fully. No problem seeing, or reaching, even the last 10% of any of the drawers.

I have purchased this item through Amazon. It is attractive, well made, nice and heavy, and meets my needs for a deskside combination of one hanging-file drawer and one drawer for the usual miscellaneous small items that go with a workspace. The price was right. I'm glad I bought it. I should add, however, that for reasons completely unclear to me, the file drawer has the annoying habit of opening by itself about six inches. Our house is new and the floor are level. I've tried raising the front of the cabinet invisibly, but that has not solved the problem Hard to know whether it's something about the venue or something about the cabinet, but it remains a petty annoyance. Hope this helps.

Unfortunately, the drawers do not pull completely out. They open about halfway, which really limits convenience.

Yes is the simple answer. Details would be that the drawer guides allow for most of the drawer to be exposed when pulled out. About three inches of the back of the drawer still remains covered when fully extended. This is not that big of a problem, as there is enough room to reach and see the back of the drawer. We have no problem using the full drawer space.

There are no drawers on the back. There are the two large drawers on the front and a small drawer on each side.

They are based on my definition- of course when opening, it stops with about 3 inches left inside the cabinet. One caution- I have almost tipped mine a couple times because I did not anchor it, and with both drawers open it will tip. I love mine!

legal size files would be side to side. The drawer pulls out almost completely.I have no problem seeing the letter size file in the back of the drawer.

I used them sideways in my drawer...and don't remember if they expanded the 18 or so inches I would have needed from back to front. By the way I'm using it in a top drawer in the bathroom which is usually a bit more shallow than some drawers, so once in a while it will drag as it is opened or closed.

They are just shy of 3 inches. A little bit of space between the top of the drawer and the support above it probably makes 3 inches total.
