This chest arrives fully assembled and VERY well-packaged; it is supported by firm styrofoam blocks on both sides as well as thick styrofoam strips on the front, back and top. The drawers and tray are padded with foam strips which keep them closed during shipping. The chest is darker than shown in the pictures, it does not have the vibrant red color shown, but this was not a problem for me as I purchased it for a bedroom done primarily in a claret color. The wood color is less golden and more of a pecan color, leaning toward cherry, which also worked out quite well for me. I bought the chest for its functionality more than its form. The construction on this piece is nothing short of magnificent - every surface is finished, with the exception of the underside of the top, and I had to take out a drawer and use a flashlight to determine that. The roomy drawers glide smoothly on their tracks, the pull-out tray offers plenty of extra real estate and the hardware is solidly attached. While this piece is composed of MDF it is of exceptional quality; I have never seen a piece of furniture composed of MDF look this good, and I am NOT a fan of composite wood furniture by any means. I was prepared to be disappointed and I am delighted to say I was wrong. This piece is solid, heavy (the 80 pound weight description is dead-on!) and well worth the money. This piece is true to the listed dimensions - please be sure to read them when considering your purchase. It is exactly what the title says it is - an accent chest. It should not be confused with a chest of drawers, if you need more space this item probably is not for you. If you're looking for a more compact item to use for a lingerie chest or for other accessory items I give this item my highest recommendation

I purchased this chest to use as a side table in my livingroom and to hide craft supplies for my kids. The size is perfect for the space. The piece arrived within a few days of the order and there is no assembly required which was great. It was packed very well and it's very heavy . I had to wait for my husband to get home to unpack it and bring into the livingroom. There were a couple of small nicks on the side and leg, but a stain marker covered it right up. The flower detail is very pretty, but it is muted. The color is not red at all. I was hoping for a dark brownish red as the other reviews have said, but it is dark brown. It looks almost like a cherrywood color. The color matches my livingroom so it wasn't a problem for me. The drawers are on the shallow side, so if you're looking to store clothing in it, it is quite small. It works great for small things. Some reviews said the drawers stuck, but I didn't have that problem at all. They all glide open and closed very easily. Overall, I was very happy with the purchase. It is a very pretty piece and it serves the purpose for which I bought it. I've already received several compliments on it. It make a very nice accent piece in the room.

This chest is very beautiful; however, the color is a muted burgundy instead of a bright ruby red as pictured. Other than the color not being what I wanted, I like the chest and have worked it into my decor.

Beautiful piece of furniture, but not the same shades as in the picture, darker and somewhat gold instead of red, does not match the furniture where I wanted to put it but will look beautiful in the front room. Very well constructed with obvious pride in workmanship, Small piece of furniture but hierloom quality.

This chest is lovely, and perfect for the guest room where I bought it to go in. I'm so glad we decided to order it. The packing was super and absolutely no flaws or problems with this piece at all.

They are exactly as I had hoped (I bought 2 because they are small). The drawers are not very deep but they slide easily and are perfect for my needs. The hand painting is beautiful but delicate. This item would not be good for kids.

I absolutely love this piece!! It fits perfectly in my entryway and it's a very nice quality for the price.

I couldn't be more pleased. The color is exactly as in the picture. The chest is nice and heavy, the drawer slides all work smoothly, the workmanship is nice. This is a heck of a buy!

LOVELY PIECE OF FURNITURE, WELL MADE, NO ASSEMBLY NEEDED! THE ONLY FEATURE THAT'S DIFFERENT IS THAT IT IS MUCH DARKER IN REAL LIFE. THAN IN THE PRESENTATION PHOTO.....MORE OF A BURGUNDY COLOR...OTHER THAN THAT, I REALLY LIKE! THANKS FOR A GREAT BARGAIN!

I liked the chest, well made, cute looking and no assembly required. Main negative is that, as others have said, the chest is a darker reddish brown color, not the pretty ruby red shown. Also it is smaller than I imagined, but then I should have looked at the actual dimensions more carefully.

The first time I saw this chest on this website I knew I wanted it. That was two years ago when I was building my new home. Things have finally settled down and I finally bought it for our guest bedroom. I read every review prior to buying it. It arrived just a few days after I placed the order. It was very well packaged and had no scratches or damage of any kind. Although the color is much darker than the photograph (which must have been taken in a studio with extremely bright lights) the darker color works better for me because of the colors in the bedding in my guest room. As others mentioned, the top drawer did stick. But after 4 or 5 attempts to dislodge it, it pulled out smoothly. I am extremely satisfied with the workmanship...the overall quality....the price...and you can't beat the $2.95 shipping charge! I have many beautiful things from Overstock.com in my home. Thank you Overstock.com for helping me have a beautiful home at bargain prices!

I get so many compliments on this piece. I use it for CD/DVD storage. I wish I could post a picture of where and how I have it setup. It is a perfect match with the decor of the space in which I have it. It is a quality piece that will stand up to time.

This is a pretty little piece. The color is a little different than what is on the computer but I like it better. The color & details are much more subtle in person. My mom has the same piece but in black so I had an idea of what this was going to look like. The drawers roll smoothly & the piece arrived already put together.

This hand-painted ruby accent chest came assembled and is beautiful! Had a couple nicks on it, but nothing too noticeable. Love the dark colors and painted design.

This little chest arrived in perfect condition and pretty much as pictured. The color is perhaps a little bit darker than shown on my computer screen (but remember that computer color can vary). It's very well made, and much less expensive than similar accent pieces that I priced locally. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

A cute little piece that fits perfectly in a small space. I am receiving many compliments!

Chest arrived today and to my surprised it was already assembled! The color is slightly different from the picture but thats not a problem for me. Its perfect for my living room!!

This chest is great! I agree with other reviewers - the color is not red at all - brown with some ruby tint to it perhaps. I love it though. Looks sturdy, drawers work smoothly, the painted design is beautiful. Overstock's price was amazing and shipping was super fast. Great experience!

This cabinet is not even close to red--more like dark chocolate brown.

I knew to expect a darker color from others reviews. However it appears brown, dark brown with a dark top. If you shine a bright light on it you might see a hint or red. I wish it was closer to the color in the pictures. Disappointed.
