I'm wondering if you could buy two of these and stack them on top of eachother to have 6 drawers? Anyone know, tried, or have opinions?

I wouldn't recommend it because of the way the base and mattress box is designed. The corresponding chest or dresser are very nice, sturdy, and provide extra storage.

Unfortunately, this is not possible. It was first of all not designed to be used this way, so we can't guarantee you how sturdy this will be. The side pieces are also quite thin and won't be able to support that much weight. Each individual bed can hold up to 250 pounds where the mattress is sitting, not on the side.

The drawers are shallow. Larger stuff will fit on top or the bottom drawer. You can always pull a drawer out and then you double the depth, but then you have one less drawer.

I dont think you want to stack them. You should order one that tall. They have them.

I would not stack them the reason I purchased the files was because of the wheels. I also think they would tip over you shoud buy a four drawer file

No, unfortunately, I wondered about the same thing. Those bottom legs you see in the pic are set as they are. If you were to try to stack two units, the bottom legs will not connect to the top shelf of the second unit. I even looked at the Honey-Can-Do website and catalog (which was not very user friendly). There MIGHT be a way if you buy each piece separately, but I was not willing to go there. Honestly, even if you could do it, I would not trust the safety of stacking it that high and putting items on it. I hope this helps!

I had some guys put mine together for me so I don't have first hand knowledge of how easier or hard it was or if there were missing parts etc. They advertise that you can buy two and stack themin a staggered fashion I think. Not sure how they would fit together as I only bought one.

These drawer systems are not really meant to have heavy items stacked on top, they are not wood. Besides, you must be tall, if you think you would be able to see into the very top drawer, if stacked. I have several of these, side-by-side with a 12" w x 8' l board across the tops. This gives a solid surface to put things on and distributes the weight.

I am not sure if you can do that. I have another box stacked on my file drawer right now and it's working fine, but it's not another drawer. It's just a cardboard box containing personal items. I am guessing that it would be difficult to stack two of them on top of each other because of the metal edging. I am thinking the top one might slip around because of that edging. This is just my guess. Sorry I wasn't of more help.

No, that wouldn't be possible. The drawers are individual. There are four individual drawers on the top and five on the bottom.

hi....you could stack two of them i believe...i personally wouldn't stack more than that!

Maybe laying down but not a lot of them. Standing up I highly doubt they would fit. The drawers would not fit any except the small sized one.

The drawers are not like a stackable system, the cart is one unit and the drawers are a part of the cart, like a small chest of drawers. Hope that helps.

Could be done. ..i wouldnt recommend buying the one with drawers, kids took about two days to destroy them to the point where they couldnt be fixed

No, they're just made to look like separate drawers but they aren't. There are a total of 6 drawers, 2 on each level.

I just received two, hoping they would stack. No such luck. Although they do have a top shelf, it is not designed to fit with the bottom of another unit, so it's not possible to sit one on top of another. Too bad. A small design change would have allowed stacking.

You could probably stack them at least 2 high in each drawer. Depending on which direction, it will accommodate around 4 deep or around 8 across.

Yes! Two drawers on both sides to make 4 total. Kinda makes it so you need to set it up in the middle of the room to maximize storage but it's worth it if you can. The first room I put it in was small and it meant I didn't have to have a dresser. Now it's just added space. If you're planning to set it against a wall and only use two of the drawers I'd build everything, but avoid putting the handles on the side you're not going to use as they do stick out enough it'd likely be pretty annoying. I've had this for 3 Year's and I still like it, and it's still in solid shape. For the price I think it's hard to beat. Yes! Two drawers on both sides to make 4 total.
