Many of the reviews note that the drawers don't open very far (distance-wise). Anyone know how far they do open (in inches or as a percentage of total drawer depth)?

So long as you install them correctly they open the full length of their depth (length of drawer going from front to back) and stop automatically once they hit the rollers. The drawers are about 1 foot wide and 1 foot long and about 6 to 7 inches deep and those are just rough estimates. If you align it correctly when its installed it will come all the way out about 1 foot which is the full length of the drawers.

They are at least approximately an inch or deeper depending on what set of drawers you are asking about.

I am at my other house for the summer where I have a larger version of the clear drawers. I would guess the ones you are interested in are about 7 or 8 inches inside. I find them both useful for sewing notions and smaller scissors. Being able to see through the sides is a great convenience.

The drawers open around 85 to 90%. I've never had any issue stuffing them to its fullest :)

Unfortunately, the drawers do not pull completely out. They open about halfway, which really limits convenience.

The drawers are easy to pull out. However - the only complaint is they do not pull out all the way. This is a heavy dresser. Why the made it so you can't remove the drawers is a conundrum.

That is true. The drawers don't open far enough. Its dissapointing because otherwise its a nice desk.

The height of the drawers are 1.5", so these will be a little too small for for your needs. The larger version of this has drawers that are 2 inches deep -- 10124 24 Large Drawer Cabinet. They are well made, sturdy, and will last for a very long time. Hope that helps.

This piece was a gift to someone so I can't check it. I am sure I would not have bought it if it did not have a real drawer. Hope this helps

Yes - very we'll built and drawers roll out very smoothly and do open for full access. Put together in exact order on directions . I bought 2 and love them !

Hello, the specs are as you for each drawer slide 1/2" min. (12.7 mm), plus 1/32", minus 0". That adds up for both sides to 1" min. (25.4 mm), plus 1/16", minus 0". So the end result is that the drawer width is between 1" and 1 1/16" (25 to 27 mm) smaller than then the opening of the cabinet. Hope this makes it clear enough. Hanspeter

Ok..saw my grandson's....the drawers are 5-6 inches deep....they hold a ton of stuff. He has had this for 5 months now- it is holding up very well to a lot of use. Hope this helps!

I'll try to answer your question. My drawer is just barely deep enough for this...but it does work...4" and it is staying in place and doing the task I wanted...not sure about the 2nd question..are you talking about the long pieces?

They're not actually two shorter drawers. The one I purchased has the "small drawers" on the bottom. The way it works is that they designed it to look as if they're two smaller drawers, however, it's one bigger drawer. It's supposed to fool the eye and make it seem more spacious, I guess. As for the open shelves I use them for my son's books and to store wipes and some blankets. The dresser itself has a lot of space and if you know how to organize things you can fit a lot of stuff. The quality though, is very poor. I would only recommend this if you can't find anything better out there. Plus, it's a pain in the ass to assemble. Oh and it's very heavy too!

The drawer does not come all the way out of the box, but it opens up three quarters of the way. You can, however, easily reach into the very back of the drawer. You just can't pull the drawer all the way out of its casing. Hope this helps.

Not sure which distance you want. Our cabinet is 20 3/8" deep from the door frame edge into the blind corner. That's a tight fit for the drawers, they come a bit past the door frame edge but it worked after I swapped a piece of 3/8" plywood for the 3/4" boards on the caddy frame. The caddy easily fits into the 23 5/8" cabinet width with inches to spare but is brushing against the drawer fronts as it slides in and out. It is a tight fit but it works.
