Drawers. The drawers on higher quality tables will use sturdy metal suspension rollers, and have a smooth feel. They will also slide all the way out, without dropping to the floor, to allow the user to fill each drawer to full capacity. Even when the drawers are full, they should be easy to slide open and shut without jamming.
Wooden table drawers, in particular, should be constructed with dovetailed, or interlocking, seams instead of stapled or glued ones. The bottom of the drawers should be made of either heavy plywood or a wood veneer instead of melamine or particleboard. Dovetailed drawers made of wood are often considered the most durable kind, and their quality is apparent even after many years of use.
With metal tables, it is important to note that the doors shut all the way. If the metal of the table has been incorrectly set you will see a gap or space between the drawer and the table, and this could indicate that the table is of poor quality.
