Beatrice 4 Drawer Chest / Dresser

Assemble was extremely time consuming; none if the parts are labeled and very few pieces of the dresser are " real wood." Once assembled, I noticed there are gaps between the drawers; I assume in manufacturing the guides where not lined up properly. Also, the drawers do not slide out very far nor hold much clothes.

This is a good value for someone who is very used to putting furniture together. Luckily I fit into that category. It was still a challenge, but the end result is a pretty good looking cabinet. The individual parts are not marked and the instructions are drawn pictures which are sometimes unclear. The drawer sides are particle board which splits easily when installing slides. Mark where you are going to install the screws first, then clamp each side of the drawer side together at the screw spots to keep it from splitting and screw and then unscrew the mounting screw to pre-thread the hole. Then the slides can safely be installed using the pre-threaded holes. (There are no pilot holes there and frankly, if you drill some, I think it would lessen the holding power of he screws.

You get what you pay for - mostly particle board, a lot of pieces busted in the shipment but Storkcraft makes it easy to get replacement parts. Looks nice from afar and at quick glances, but getting close to inspect it you can tell it's cheap - but we were looking for a piece that we wouldn't feel bad about scrapping in 5 years, which we certainly won't feel bad about not keeping this terribly long.

Bought this dresser praying that it would match with the new bunk bed I purchased that was the same brand but different style. Everything worked out great and the set up was easy, and the drawers seem very sturdy... TIME WILL TELL. Only complaint is the top of the dresser part was scratched on the end corners so we emailed customer service for a new part, they've already responded and it should be on its way within the next 2 days :)

Was kind of difficult trying to figure out where the pieces went due to the pieces not being marked as the directions showed. Once the pieces where sorted out it was pretty simple to put together and looks good.
