I am on the second to last step of attaching the drawers to the unit, but if I screw in the screw to the sides, I don't think the drawer will open?

I understand what you mean, the instructions are not great, I just kind of played with it until I could see how it had to be attached correctly. I hope this is enough to help you

You need to use the longest screws in the pack (4 of them total), thread them through the smaller,circular, gray plastic piece through the hole on the inside of the plastic drawer frame. Then, screw that in place into the larger, circular, gray plastic pieces that you put into the side panels (B & D) in step 4. I had my boyfriend hold the drawer in place while I screwed everything together. The drawer is a little heavy to hold in place while screwing it into place. The two circular plastic pieces should rotate against each other without friction, allowing the drawer to move smoothly. I hope that helps!

Ben, I'm not sure what you mean, but for me at least, following the instructions exactly worked perfectly, even if they were un-intuitive. The last few steps were especially un-intuitive and requried one to bend the plastic drawer guides (I guess that's what they are called) a bit. One thing, make sure you are using the right screws in the right places, they are not well marked, and it is not in-tuitive, and if you mess up you can send a screw through the veneer.

I would agree with the previous answers. I've never had it happen on this product but have experienced it in two other models at work. Just play with the other drawer to unlatch. Also make sure you jiggle bottom drawer too...it could be both drawers together.

It does not connect to the drawer. I use double sided tape to keep it in place.

The only thing I can think of besides a defect is this. With mine I have noticed that it is very easy to think you have the drawer COMPLETELY shut and it need to go in just a fraction more in order to catch the locking mechanism.

The previous answer is correct. The drawers don't come all the way out. It would tip over if they did. I needed a small file, so I don't fill it completely, and I'm very pleased with it.

We had the same problem. Had to get new higher quality rails and add a shim between the rail and the desk so the drawer would fit properly. I would suggest returning it if you don't want to go to that much trouble.

You need to look at the shape of the rail as there as there are 3 different styles of brackets/rails. One of them will match up to the shape of the rail and slide right in. The trick is to Match the shape of the drawer rail to shape (style) of bracket. Took me 3 tries before I got the correct one.

The drawers are on glides. They open very smoothly and I only use one hand. Sometimes when closing tightly I give it a little extra. I have never had them get stuck.

Just open the top drawer and hook it on from there. Thats what I do, its a bit of a hassle to open the drawer underneath it but other then that its perfectly fine.

If you lift off the top board/slab and there should be small clips on the drawers which lock them into place. You will need to hold them down before you can slide them out.

You'll have to attach the drawer handles. Otherwise, it is already assembled.

Is the drawer hitting the edge of the cainet? Or maybe it has lost one of it's magnets or metal tabs for closure. Other than that, there is not much that can go wrong with it. Mine closes fine and I have not had that problem.

Should be common sense..close them first. I purposely do that, the top is always closed on mine, but I opened it, pulled the drawers out, closed the top, the pushed the drawers closed, thus I can access the drawers without having to open the top first.

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

There is a small plastic piece that needs to be installed on the underneath side of the opening in the cabinet where the drawer would fit into. It is fastened by 2 screws. If there is no way to pre drill holes and then screw the plastic piece into place, then this is not the product for your purpose. Also, the piece that is attached to the drawer is larger than one might think. On my cabinet it takes up 2.5 inches from the top of the drawer because it can't sit flush with the top of the drawer to work properly.

I have the same problem. There doesn't seem to be a solution to keep it from slipping out without limiting the function of the drawer. Just open it carefully.:)

Open the drawer n the piece just sits in the opening of the drawer and slides back n forth. Kind if like a hidden compartment.
