My fiance and I bought this as our first dresser. We love it! Both of us love working with our hands, so putting it together was not a problem because we had our tools prepared. However, the instructions that came with our dresser were a little wrong. We were having a difficult time getting the drawers to feed on to the tracks and noticed the instructions told us to put the tracks on backwards. Also, a few times the instructions tell you to put dowels in the place the screws should go. It was easy to figure the last one out, but the tracks were a little confusing. If you are purchasing this dresser be prepared with a cordless drill, rubber mallet, pliers (for getting dowels out when they tell you to put them in the wrong place) and a hand held flat head screw driver to lock the locking bolts in place.
This is a nice solid piece of furniture. It blends well with some other antiques in the room. Minor damage on shipment and a bit of a pain to assemble but we are happy with the chest.
I purchased this dresser based on my previous experiences with Overstock.com pieces. This dresser, however, was terrible. The instructions were extremely difficult to interpret and left out a lot of steps. I am not a novice at assembling furniture, but this was the worst. In fact, the compressed sawdust dowels broke, are not of consistent length, and were either too small or too large for the holes. The screws are so cheap they begin to disintegrate when you use an electric screwdriver. I can usually whip through assembling furniture. I spent four hours and got so frustrated I packed the piece back into its box and thought I'd return it, until I found out that UPS will charge me to pick it up to return. I'm now going to give it to the Salvation Army for their rehabilitation center. I might as well have flushed my $$$ down the toilet.
My husband and I are very pleased with this purchase. We had no problems putting it together, took us about an hour for each (we bought two). Despite the problems other reviewers have had, we found the instructions were clear and no parts were missing. One drawer was damaged and Overstock quickly sent us a replacement.
The Alsa 4-drawer Chest is very solid and sturdy. It's a good value for the money and looks nice with the Alsa bed. I had a some difficulty putting it together, mostly because I had never put a dresser together before. If I had to do it again it would take half of the time.
I decided to order this chest after ordering the headboard. It was such a disappointment. Very cheap! The drawer fronts are thin and cracked on two of the drawers. When you purchase a item that comes with a hundred pieces the direction should accurate, don't you think? Very irritated putting together this piece of work. Bottom line, You get what you pay for.
We bought the queen bed, chest and two night stands. All are very nice, sturdy and good looking. The chest and nightstands have gliders on the drawers that operate smoothly. Thank you Overstock.com for a great set of guest bedroom furniture!
I was quite surprised at the sturdiness and heavy feel of the product, so far so good, definite value for money, i was able to get a whole bedroom set of solid wood for under 1100, cant complain
we had no trouble setting this up. directions were accurate and all pieces were included. one drawer was slightly scuffed but other than that it looks great and is very sturdy!
Love it when I first received it. After a couple of months the slides fell out of place and the drawers were a mess. money wasted.
