Prepac Astrid 6 Drawer Double Dresser for Bedroom, Wide Chest of Drawers, Bedroom Furniture, Clothes Storage and Organizer, 15.5" D x 47.5" W x 26.85" H, White

I feel like I need to clear the air on this product! I put this together rather easily but it is a job and will take a few hours. Some of the reviews on here seem very odd to me as my experience with this Dresser was not problematic at all. The manual is very well done and way better than most especially if you have ever put together IKEA products. This manual makes IKEA manuals look like stone tablets from 2000 B.C. as it is very detailed which is greatly appreciated. I will say that if you are a novice, there may be 1 or 2 things within the assembly manual that aren't exactly clear and may leave you to leave a piece off or install the drawer rails upside down but if you carefully READ the sentences at the top or bottom of the page, you won't make a mistake. Don't just go by the pictures, actually read the instructions! The 2 bottom pieces are interchangeable (clearly stated in the manual) and are different designs. It is your preference of which one to use. The picture shows the plain one in front. I used a more decorative one and will post pictures later. The drawer rail boards that mount to the center piece and have the rails installed on them are clearly stamped L or R (Left or Right) and the rails are clearly marked with DL or DR (Drawer Left or Drawer Right) to avoid any confusion. When it was all said and done, the quality of the wood was actually very study and the black shines greatly once you wipe off the particles that result from packaging. If you are trying to save money, I think you will love this dresser. Try not to be swayed by the reviewers who clearly don't put together furniture or other items very much. I am an engineer and have assembled many things but even so, I promise this dresser is not hard to assemble if you have patience and read your steps clearly before proceeding. Take your time! There are a lot of fasteners and hardware pieces to use so allow a few hours to do the work. The drawers take the most time but are very sturdy when finished. The camshafts (locked fasteners that look like screws) are color coded to ensure you put the right ones in the correct places. As for missing hardware, I did not experience this but if you buy enough furniture that requires assembly, you will run in to this at least a time or two. This dresser looks amazing when finished especially with the high quality knobs that come with it for the drawers. Now will this dresser stand the test of time? That will remain to be seen but take proper care of it and I think it will last a long time and save you a lot of money!

Bought this along with a mataching nightstand set. Came well packaged with no damage. Instructions are pictures only, but just take your time and you will be ok. Went together well. I also use wood glue which make a much stronger product. Took me about 4 hours to put it all together, but I take my time. This dresser is narrow at only 17 inches wide but for me will double as tv stand at foot of bed so narrow is better. Color is deep chocolate brown. Drawers are nice and slide well on metal brackets. Inside, they are 24 inches wide but only about 12 inches deep, so not a ton of storage. All partical board except for drawer sides. Well work good for 1st apartment or spare room. Since I glued 100% of the joints, its solid and will not fall apart. Product is heavy, so recomend taking out the drawers when transporting it. A brown marker, not included with mine, can be used to cover in straches. Down the road when I upgrade to something better, will either use in a spare bedroom room, maybe give away, or worst case bust apart and put in dumpster, since I dont have alot of money tied up is this.

It's a pretty and nice dresser. I like the look and how the drawers work. The downside is it took 5hrs to put together! My hand and arm was in MAJOR pain after putting it together alone. The instructions was missing every other page so I had to call the number on the instructions for them to email me the correct instructions. Also some of the pieces have scuff marks on them and some of the metal screws broke. The instructions were hard to understand with just pictures and no words at all. For the price I think they could've done a better job. Overall I like the finished product.

Absolutely awful. Now I will admit I am not a very handy person. In fact I may literally be the worst handyman on the planet. Despite this, I can typically still manufacture prefab furniture, it just takes me a lot longer than it does a normal person. Despite this, my negative rating and experience with this drawer goes well beyond my inability as you will see in this review. First off, the directions for this thing were not very clear and certainly were not helpful. While the directions have labeled pieces, the boards and pieces in the box are not. The only exception is there is an R and an L on some pieces which is actually nice. Another issue is that the dresser uses two different sized zinc cams. After spending hours on this thing (which is mostly on my inability to do mechanical work) once I got to the drawers (which is the final step), I realize that there are two different size zinc cams, because the 3 cams I have left won’t fit into the slot in the drawer. Now as I have said, I am terrible at these types of things, but I don’t feel this one can be blamed on that. These cams look identical, it just so happens one is just slightly larger than the other to the point it enough that it will not fit in the slot on the drawer. So there I am, six hours into this thing, with 3 cams that are just slightly too big for the drawer slots. Why they did this is beyond me, but it makes never want to buy another dresser from them again. This goes back to why it is an issue that they did not label pieces. Had the pieces been in bags labeled “A3” and “C8” (for example) this may have been avoided, but nothing is labeled which causes confusion, especially for someone like me. Furthermore, and something that will matter to others probably more than me, is the bottom trim piece came nearly cracked in half to the point in snapped during assembly. Now because this is going in a sports equipment room, and won’t be seen by the general public, it was not worth sending it all back as the piece is largely just for aesthetics. With that said, if this was going in an area others would see, I would have been livid that this piece came as damaged as it did and broke so easily.

We got this for our nursery and its perfect. I love all the little details and it was fairly simple to put together. Only downfall is the drawers arent overly tall so you cant fit a lot height wise. Also if buying for nursery we use the top as our changing table however this dresser isn't as deep as most dressers so just make sure you check measurements before hand the top doesn't accommodate many changing pads.

With easy-to-follow instructions my son and I had the dresser unboxed and fully assembled in less than an hour. The dresser is very sturdy. Since it was for my son's room we opted out of using the pull handles that came with it and bought cheap black knob-type handles from a big box store. I am very sensitive to smells and did find that there was a slight glue/paint smell, but my son said that he didn't smell anything.

No tan difícil de armar, toma algo de tiempo y paciencia. Algunas piezas vienen con la melamina o el acabado raspado. Trae un marcador para retocar que no sirve para eso. Luce muy bonito ya armado.

This was exactly as advertised. It is well.made and went together very quickly.

Build took about 4.5-5 hours start to finish done almost entirely as one person. Don't try to build this entirely alone, it's impossible. I like to build these things fully on my own, so to accept help was unusual for me. The entire unit in the box and assembled is VERY very heavy. You do need a good amount of strength to move the pieces around when building. Keep that in mind. The color coded slider pieces make this so so easy to assemble. I wish all drawered furniture like this had this feature. I've built things that had no L and R indicators and it's a nightmare. The color coding on this made it a total breeze, just pretty time consuming. The only major problem I had with it is the screws not aligning well enough with the metal bracket that attaches onto the sides of the drawers - the screws were snagging on the wheels in the frame of the dresser pretty badly for 2 of them. I ended up using my Dremel and rounding the edges of the little screws for these 2 problem screws and that totally fixed it. There's no other way to straighten them to get them to screw down into the bracket far enough. Truuuust me, I tried everything. So if you have this problem too, you'll need to do the same thing somehow either with a file or a Dremel. But otherwise I'm really really happy with it! It looks fantastic, had minimal damage upon opening (almost impossible to avoid this when buying this kind of flat box furniture so I expected the worst). I do recommend it for sure. :) Great price point for the quality and sturdiness.
