Which one should you buy?

For most Australian home offices the VASAGLE 2-Drawer Rolling File Cabinet (matte black) is the best all rounder: a steel and board frame, lockable drawers and the largest review base of anything we looked at. If you want the same brand for less, the VASAGLE Industrial 2-Drawer with an open shelf is the value pick. On a tight budget, the Costway 3-Drawer Lateral is the cheapest cabinet here that still takes A4, legal and letter files and rolls on locking castors.
