5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Dresser, February 24, 2010

My daughter is moving into our bigger spare bedroom, she's 8, and I wanted to get her some bedroom furniture that wasn't too expensive because we are on a budget and something that would hopefully last her until she goes to college (I know that's pushing it), I think this dresser is it! It took about 3 hours to put together by myself, but I also have a household to take care of so it was not an uninterrupted 3 hours (I am kind of a control freak so that's why I did it by myself). After I finished I was totally pleased! It was sturdy, good size drawers, and the color is a perfect match with the picture. I ordered the full headboard and bed also but have not had time to put it together yet, hopefully this weekend, I am excited to see how those turn out also!

3.0 out of 5 stars Awful to assemble, ill fitting, January 4, 2011

This is by far the worst piece of furniture I have ever assembled. It took forever, and the parts are very ill fitting. I will never buy another South Shore product again. I will say that it is heavy, and will more than likely last a good while. Also South Shore has very responsive customer service. But this is the second SS product we have assembled, and both are a pain to put together and both have poor fit and finish, even for the low price.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Looking Drawer, Not so easy assembly., September 13, 2010

This review is from: South Shore Furniture, Cakao Collection, 5 Drawer Chest, Chocolate (Kitchen)

I got this a few weeks ago and must say the design of it looks way above its price. People always compliment me on my furniture, thinking I spent so much on it, but I guess thats just between me and you now. Now some other reviewer said that their granddaughter or someone was able to set this up alone. I don't want to recommend anyone voiding their warranty, but I built mine with a power drill (they say it doesn't require it and may damage wood, but I didn't have any problems) and yet it took me around a week to getting around finishing it. The drawers were a PAIN to assemble, it requires a bit of force, and at many times I was worried I was going to break the drawers. All in all, everything did fit and come together. When you complete the chest though, you might notice it sways side to side easily, if you haven't nailed in the back panel that will happen so watch for that. Filling up the drawers will also keep it stable. It comes with a hook thing to keep it nailed to the wall so that it doesn't tip over atop your curious 3 year old.

Once assembled its pretty fine and functional, I guess I'd be happier if the drawers were a bit longer, since the way it is now I can fit three piles of boxers next to each other, but there is space for a half pile of boxers behind, which doesn't cut it. The drawers won't fall out if you accidentally pull them to far, they have a sort of lock on them that keeps it from coming completely out.

One thing of note, this thing ships weird. This is the first product I bought that hasn't come on time according to the amazon delivery estimate. It didn't even ship at that point. Two days after the delivery estimate (5 days after I placed my order) the Fedex tracking number still had no information, and when I called them they told me it was in Canada, so if your in a rush for this don't order from south shore, it takes around a week and half to arrive. The packaging was heavy too.
