I am thrilled with this dresser as well as the various stages leading up to getting it. Let me run through a few: 1) I ordered the dresser on a Tuesday, payed a buck for shipping, and it was delivered to my house by Friday. WOW. I couldn't believe how fast the delivery was. 2) It was delivered in three boxes. Everything was packed up marvelously - with styrofoam and plastic to ensure things didn't get scratched or banged up in the delivery process. I had all the pieces I needed and everything was properly labeled. 3) I had a lot of fun putting the dresser together, but I think I'm probably a bit freakish in that regard. I think of self-assemble furniture as a big puzzle with a beautiful piece of furniture the prize at the end. It took me about 4.5 hours to put it together, and that was working quite constantly. I got it put together myself for the most part, though there were a few places where it really would have helped to have someone else there (and, indeed, one place where I had to call a friend to come over to help me push together the sides). By the by - wooden dowels are evil. And you'll have to deal with a LOT of wooden dowels. And many thanks to those who suggested using an electric drill for some bits --- screwing in the 20 or so screws to affix the back panel on the dresser would have been terrible had I not had the electric drill. So all in all, assembly was about as easy as you could hope for for such a huge piece of furniture. It was fun watching the dresser take shape as I made it. 4) And what about the dresser itself? It is *gorgeous*. Others have noted that it's a darker color than was depicted in the picture on the Overstock website. But it's not a bad color at all. I love the simplicity of the dresser a lot. It was a bit shorter than I expected, with the drawers being just a bit more shallow than I thought they would be...but it was my fault for not looking more closely at the height of the dresser before buying it. And even though the drawers are a bit shallow, they still fit a huge amount of clothing. The drawers slide very cleanly on their runners. This is a well made (and, if you do it right, assembled!) piece of furniture. For the price I paid I'm really quite pleased with it and I fully expect it to be a part of my house and my life for a very long time to come.
After looking around extensively at standard national furniture retailers including ***, ***, and ***, I am extremely pleased with this purchase. For it's very low price, the dresser is very high quality. The wood feels great and the color is very close to what it is in the photo. It took quite a while to put together, maybe 3-4 hours, but they included many spare parts. It also is really surprisingly stylish in person. There were some dressers at *** that were three times the price and far lower in quality.
This dresser is as sexy as the bed that it matches. The color is much more pleasing than in the Overstock picture. Works excellently to create an industrial/organic/natural ambiance in my bedroom. The knobs are sexy. Love that it's made from eco-friendly rubberwood. Takes forever to put together, as other reviewers have said because the instructions are subpar. Make sure you have a power drill. Lots of screws.
I bought the night stands first and given that the "tobacco" is a darker wood tone that I had expected, I had decided not to buy the dresser. But after searching high and low for a mid-century look dresser and finding nothing below the price points at DWR ... I took a chance on this and was pleasantly surprised. Having put together the night stands a month or so ago, this assembly took us 2.5 hours. Parts were plentiful but no damage on anything or missing pieces. Does need some strength though. the drawer fronts have a little bit of gap still on the sides. but at this price, i am not nit picking. i will switch out the drawer pulls, the black ones get lost a bit. the reason why i had to post a review for this item here is because i totally disagree with a previous reviewer's comments on how this is fitting for a child's room... this is an adult size dresser, no question. the dimensions alone will tell you that. looks great. darker than i wanted but the design makes up for it.
I bought this dresser based on the numerous positive reviews, the great price and how attractive it looked on line. I was not disappointed. I was aware it would be a challenge to assemble based on the reviews. It was. I am not a handy person. I am not a technical person. But, I am a visual person. I carefully studied the diagrams and followed each step in the order recommended in the assembly instructions. I made sure I had cordless screwdriver as recommended by fellow reviewers. I don't think I would have had the strength to complete it had I not. There are so many screws and the wood is really hard. It took me nearly 4 hours. Yes, I know that is slow. Someone more handy won't take as long. It turned out beautiful. I was so proud of my assembly (a first for me), I posted pictures online. I got many complements. This is a beautiful piece for the price. It looks more expensive than it is. I feel it will last a long time. Regarding previous comments 1.) Smell: Yes, there is an odor to the wood but I don't find it abnormal or horrible. It will lessen in time. 2.) Design Flaw: the reviewer who gave this 1 star due to the "horrible design flaw" because the drawers were rolling completely out and falling onto the floor. The flaw is in their assembly. They clearly put the drawer runners on backwards. Drawers do not fall out.
Very nice piece works great in my room and high quality wood.
I had been hunting for a new dresser that had great style and was large enough to accommodate my clothes while not overwhelming my bedroom. This is an amazing dresser and I absolutely love it! The color is beautiful. It's solid, hard wood on gliding drawers with built-in stoppers. Unlike other dressers that I've had in the past, the stoppers don't prevent the drawer from opening all the way, which is great. Yes, the dresser came in 3 large boxes and there were a TON of parts. BUT, the instructions were super simple and everything was labeled extremely well. It took 2 of us about 3 hours to have it fully assembled. You will want a power drill and 2 people and a room with open space to get everything assembled. I'm considering buying the other pieces in the set right now since I love it so much.
This is a great dresser, but it took FOREVER to put together. I had a drill, which is ESSENTIAL...DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PUT THIS TOGETHER WITHOUT A DRILL as there are hundreds of screws. Once it is put together, however, it is a really nice piece. I bought this because I bought the bed, and it was great...so had to buy the dresser. The dresser has so much room in the 6 drawers that I have one whole drawer that is still empty. I gave this 4 stars ONLY because of the amount of time it took to put together. When you sit down to do so, make sure you lay out all of your pieces correctly and get organized. It will make all the difference. The directions were a bit cryptic when it came to the metal dowels, but I figured it out. Also, there are more screws and dowels than I have ever seen in my life. Sit yourself down for 4 hours, cuz that is what this will take if you do it alone. Still recommended though. Next time I will pay someone $40 to put one of these together :)
Great look, a little wobbly on the drawers, but smooth enough glide. Assembly is a b, 4-5 hours by yourself. Hope it holds up for at least 10-20 years.
It took time to assemble (one person), but it was not as bad as I expected from reading other reviews. The only problem was the inserts for the rollers for the drawers. They were backwards on the instruction sheet. However, it could have been the user. I simply unscrewed them and put them back on. All in all...love the product. It has plenty of drawer space!
