We live in a mostly digital world, but file cabinets are still in demand. If you’ve been wanting to organize your important documents and require ample space for hanging files, we rounded up a list of some of the most durable file cabinets that you can find for under $200. When you’re on a budget, it’s not always easy to find large file cabinets, which is why our selection features mostly single, double, and triple-drawer cabinets versus the taller file five or six-drawer cabinets (you’ll find a five-drawer cabinet on the list but it’s not designed for hanging files). See below for our selection of great file cabinets that range in style from the classic metal design to a sleek single-file cabinet that can easily be mistaken for a stylish end table, and a lateral file cabinet with a small bookshelf. And for more office supplies and furniture, see our picks for the best desk organizers, and most comfortable office chairs.
