South Shore Furniture, Prairie Collection, 6 Drawer Double Dresser, Country Pine

South Shore Furniture, Prairie Collection, 6 Drawer Double Dresser, Country PineIf you want to buy this item is because of the wood like outlook, please forget about it. Because this furniture is totally made by recycle wood, only the front side has wood-like skin. Look inside you would see ugly surface of recycle wood. And the worst part is that drawer is extremely weak. The bottom of the drawer is made of 3 mm thick only recycle paper, it is as thin as a paper and the depth of drawer is only 10 cm. You are not allowed to put much clothes or item inside the drawer, otherwise it will crash.

Beside the worst drawer, the structure of the dresser is not stable as well. After you finish installation, the whole dresser keeps swing. Therefore, you can see the dresser may fall down warning in the first page of installation manual. Overall, this is very poor quality furniture. Don't be fool by the front side wood-like skin. It is worse than any furniture you can buy in the Wal-Mart or target. Don't buy it absolutely.

Nice product.. Somewhat easy to assemble.. Nothing broken upon arrival. My son loves the bed... makes a lovely set

I bought this as a decently priced alternative to second hand. I knew it wasn't going to be a super thick wood from the description, but was disappointed within days of the quality... It was hardly full of clothing when we tried to move it a few inches to the side and it fell apart. The back came off and it was a huge mess moving everything out to fix it. Will keep this item for awhile longer but intend to replace.

BUT it is a pretty color and does look attractive.

The dresser has too many pieces and took forever to put together. For a few bucks more buy one already assembled. Not worth the time.

We purchased this dresser for our daughter's cowgirl nursery. It arrived quickly and thankfully, undamaged. I was a bit fearful to purchase this product after reading some of the reviews but now I'm so glad we took the risk!

WARNING: You can't be in a hurry when you put this together. It does take a few hours and REQUIRES a helper. The pieces can break easily if you get in a hurry! After all, it is all particleboard, plastic dowels, plastic L-brackets, plastic drawer tracks with a few nails and screws.

Expecting a "Wal-Mart" quality product, I was quite impressed with how well it all came together and how sturdy it actually was. My husband followed the directions EXACTLY and screwed everything in SECURELY. We were able to pick it up and move it around without ANY fear of it falling apart. It doesn't shake or wobble. It feels very sturdy and I (5'9" and 6 months pregnant) was able to lean up against it empty without it even tipping.

The drawers are only 4 1/4" deep on the inside and the bottoms are very thin particle board with wood grain finish all of which is held on by plastic drawer tracks so needless to say we won't be cramming a bunch of big heavy stuff in this dresser. It will be perfect for all her clothes though and actually holds more than it looks like it will.

The wood grain finish is very cute and country! It is made to look worn and to show imperfections. Which will be helpful with a little one running around making messes of things! :) The finish is only on the outside of the dresser and inside the drawers. Everything else looks like particleboard. No shocker there as that is pretty typical of low-end furniture.

I did plan to use the dresser as a changing table by simply putting a changing cushion on it however; I haven't found a changing cushion narrow enough. The dresser is only 16" deep and all the changing cushions I've found are larger than that. No big deal! I survived childhood without a cushion under my bum and I'm sure my daughter will too!

Very worth the money if you take the time and follow the instructions to make sure it all comes together securely!

HUSBANDS REVIEW: This piece of furniture is not very well manufactured in anyway, however, if you follow the instructions and are careful you can put it together in about 2 and a half to three hours. The only tools I needed were a hammer, a Phillips and a flat head screwdriver. I recommend that you buy some wood glue to put in all of the holes as you assemble the drawer tracks and the plastic dowels. In all, I think it will last 2 to 4 years before it goes in the scrap heap.
