Winsome Piper Mobile Printer Station/Organizer, for Home Office, 30", Walnut

I absolutely love the product! It is exactly what I needed. It rolls easily over carpeting and hard floors. The finish is beautiful. The drawer and slide out shelf work smoothly. I gave it an all over 5 star rating because once you have it together it is really, really nice! However, the assembly is a bit of a challenge. I read a previous review about it and found the same issues. However, I have put together so many furniture products that I knew I could handle it. I am a 74 year old woman with arthritis in hands and spine and I was able to do it myself.The problems:1. Some of the parts look very much alike. The differences are hard to see right away. Although the directions have pictures associated with each piece they are too small and the print is blurred in areas. You have to struggle to locate the particular thing that tells you what piece it is and if it is left or right. I took each piece out and lined them up against the wall. There were not stickers on them to tell you whether it was piece A, B, C etc. So as I identified each piece I put a sticky note on it with the item's letter. (Thank you previous customer for warning about this!)2. The illustrations in the directions are too small and the details are hard to see. Also, some of the directional marks in the drawings are not too clear and awkwardly drawn. If you have done this before, you'll easily figure it out. The screws go in fairly easily although for me it is always a challenge to do so much with an Allen Wrench. It's small and you have to wiggle it into the hole to get it to bite. The other screws go in easily with a Phillips head.3. I'm a patient person and willing to fumble around to balance things to get all the initial pieces together. If you're not patient, then have a second person around to hold the parts close to one another while you use the tools. That should take about an hour off the time needed to put it together. It took me about 2 and a half hours.....I went slowly to be sure I made no errors.I'm glad I bought it. It's a lovely little piece, very sturdy, very attractive, and my printer will love having it as it's new home! I love the finish! It's easy to wipe clean!In my pictures, please excuse the mess in the background....those are all the packing materials.....which, by the way, it was extremely well packaged!!!!

I can’t comment on ease of assembly as I had someone else do it. It seemed difficult for a non handy person but once assembled it exceeded my expectations.The unit is very strong, particularly the shelving, the wheels work perfectly and the bottom drawer is really roomy. It just looks great as well, not cheap looking like many other similar units. I have a 21 inch TV on top, a DVD/VCR/Player recorder and a small cable box in the middle and the bottom drawer can hold many tapes and dvds. It’s perfect and the finish is stunning.I would recommend this to anyone but with the advice to let a skilled handy man do the assembly. You will have no headaches and the finished product is worthy the extra service cost.

I work from home and have two printers, one color, the other b&w. At present I have them side by side on a table, but was happy to see this stand that made it possible to stack the printers without an "industrial" feel. This really is an attractive stand and it seems to be sturdy. The file drawer (letter size) will accommodate most of my papers (the legal sized papers will fold, and the drawer seems deep enough that the added bulk shouldn't be a problem). It's meant to be a keyboard stand as well, but I will be taking the shelf for the keyboard off the unit to make room for a printer.Now, that covers the functionality aspect of this stand. As for the ease of putting it together, that's another issue altogether. I am familiar with putting furniture together, having "built" at least 10 other pieces before, but never have I encountered anything like this. Not one of the pieces is marked. As others have said, you have to compare each piece with the parts page and hope you have looked at the picture correctly. I did manage to do that, the first day. After that trauma, I put the thing away and moved on to another unit I had purchased. Everything is done by picture; there are no written instructions. Others mentioned that they had put a panel in wrong so I was aware of that and got it right (thank you to all who shared your "mistake"), but for the most part if you have the right pieces and are sort of good at puzzles, it goes together without too much fuss. I have probably done something wrong enough that the drawer does not pull out smoothly, but frankly it just isn't worth dismantling it to figure out where I went wrong...it works, that's enough.I'm not sure I would have bought this had I known about the lack of marking of pieces or good diagrams, but now that it's together, I'm glad I got it. A mechanically inclined person will probably not have any problem, at all.

TIP: Some reviews mention difficulty putting together this table. I labeled each part first with a Post-It that had the part name and part letter. This made it so much easier to assemble and to feel more confident I had the right pieces. I was able to put it together on my own although the first step would be a bit simpler with help.Although I'm not using this table as a printer stand, it's exactly what I wanted as a flexible side table to my office desk. This table gives me extra working space as well as handy storage. The pull-out keyboard tray is great for a second client laptop or another device. And, it's easy to move it out of the way when needed.I'm impressed by the quality of the table as most of the parts are solid wood vs. cheap particleboard which is common with this price level of assemble yourself furniture. The table is sturdy and looks great.

The file cabinet section doesn't close all the way. Fortunately, its back in a corner. I bought it for half price and I'm guessing that is why. It also has a scuff above the file section. It does look nice and it seems fairly sturdy. It wasn't that hard to put together. I labeled all the parts first and needed someone else to hold parts while I screwed them together. It will work for me.

This little piece of furniture looks just like we thought it would and is serving its function very well. Suggestion to anyone assembling it: Take a moment to label each piece with its appropriate letter (the instructions have the pieces labeled with letters but the physical pieces are not). This will save time, for example, trying to put the right-side piece on the left side of the item. We used 5 minutes to label the pieces, took our time putting it together and that made assembly quite easy.

We do a lot of zoom meetings. It fit out needs exactly as we don’t have to put everything away after each meeting. Just roll it to corner of living room

Great that it is on wheels. Easy to assemble and sturdy. Holds my big heavy Laser Printer no problem. Looks nice as well.

I like everything about this item, works well. I wish the file door fit the files in it though. My hanging folders are to long for this.

I was very disappointed in my cabinet, I read the reviews about the assembly being a bit difficult since nothing was labeled, but I did fine with that. Once together though the unit wasn’t straight, the tray is not level, one slider is lower at the back right than the front. The file drawer seems to be similar it is tighter on one corner than the other. The predrilled holes don’t seem to placed properly and therefore the cabinet isn’t square when all assembled. It’s too bad since the cabinet is perfect for what I want, and the wood seems to be decent, but is is poor quality as far as the assembly goes.Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be anyway to contact the manufacturer to see if anything can be done. I’m still trying to decide if it is worth keeping or not.
