Twenty-four and a half inches tall is under-desk height, and that is the point of the 9-drawer version - it rolls beneath a table top and out again without catching the apron. Three large drawers of 14.5 x 11.5 x 5 in handle files and boxes, six medium ones at 2.5 in deep suit stationery and paperwork, rated 5.5 lbs and 3 lbs. The top takes 22 lbs. Macaron pastels lighten a home office without the noise of primary colors. Metal frame with PP drawers measuring 25 x 14.5 in overall, 11 lbs, with an instruction sheet in the box.
