Armoir

This Armoir is very inexpensive and the craftsmenship shows.. It was however perfect for our 3 year old... It took 3 times to get one that wasnt damaged.More detail ...

Great value for money and good customer service

I chose this cabinet because it seemed to be functional and a nice color at an affordable price.



When it arrived I noticed one of the pieces was slightly cracked during shipping so I called their customer service and they politely apologized and fedexed a replacement part (without me having to send them the defective one).



After receiving this part my husband put the cabinet together and it looks great! Fair warning: it requires extensive installation - basically you get wood and parts but the instructions are fairly good to follow.



If you're looking for a functional cabinet to store the baby's stuff in and don't mind putting it together this is the best deal especially since the company's customer service is responsive.More detail ...

Good Quality

Color true to description and picture. Good quality smooth drawer slides. Taller than I thought but I should have paid more attention to dimensions! Overall worth the money.More detail ...

Could be great but cheap materials ruin this dresser

We ordered this product along with a matching crib (DaVinci Kalani Convertible Baby Crib - Cherry). These appeared to be a nice middle-ground between the really cheap particle-board and cardboard dressers at $200 and the (beautiful) Amish solid wood pieces at $1400+. The crib is wonderful and aside from scratching easily it is fantastic.



This dresser however is another story. In addition to the solid wood frame the drawers have particleboard frame and the drawer bottoms are the thinnest cheapest cardboard you can find. All of the hardware in the dresser is of poor quality which caused numerous problems during assembly. In one case the screws pulverized the particleboard and I needed to purchase a new screw drill my own hole and hope that I didn't destroy the wood in doing so.



As other reviewers have mentioned the drawers also come apart fairly often (once/month). I have been tempted to glue the drawers to decrease this frequency. My concern with that is that the cardboard is so cheap that I'm not sure it would hold up to the gluing and I think that might be the end of the drawers.



The entire unit sways a little bit too. Tightening it only makes it worse (yikes!).



Overall a big disappointment. It looks beautiful but it won't hold up. We should have either spent less or more on something that will really last.More detail ...

Perfect and Loving it!

After desperately searching for an affordable armoire for our daughter's nursery I came across this piece from South Shore. When it arrived I was so happy to see that all the pieces were there and not damaged. My husband and I put it together in less than two hours with no problems at all. It looked absolutely beautiful when we finished and it was perfect for her room.



I loved all the shelves available for storing clothes and displaying items. It's the perfect size (not too tall or wide) so I have things displayed on top as well. Everything seems extremely sturdy and the drawers are much stronger than I thought they would be. I know the color is 'pure white' and I wasn't sure exactly what that meant when we purchased it but it matches my daughter's white crib perfectly. I have her nursery decorated in a shabby chic theme and this was a wonderful addition---I would totally recommend this product. I am extremely satisfied!



The only thing I did not realize when we bought this was that there is no latch or magnet for the door. There are small clear rubber blocks inside the frame so when the door closes it doesn't bang but it might get interesting when she starts moving around and discovers she can open it herself!More detail ...

Good bargain!

I bought this dresser for my 18 mo old's room. It is small but large enough for it purpose she will outgrow it by at least age 8. My husband put it together and he felt it was somewhat difficult to do so. It has a nice finish and the drawer pulls are cute. All and all for the price you can't beat it....More detail ...

Flimsy Bad Wood

Overall a poor piece of furniture.



The exposed wood is as it appears: very nice. Our cherry finish matched the cherry finish of our crib (a Da Vinci product as well and one I'm very pleased with).



However buyer beware. This piece of furniture contains lots of particle board and cheap pine. So not only will you have a difficult time putting it together you might not get it put together at all. The pieces of wood we received for the drawers are terrible--black spots and cracks abounded. And only two cam bolts hold in the front of the drawers hardly enough support for these pieces. Because the holes were poorly drilled and the cam locks were bad I couldn't get two of the three drawers properly assembled. I had to use wood glue just to attach the front. I shouldn't have to do that for $250+.More detail ...

My recommendation.....do not order

I ordered this December 5 2009. It arrived damaged and without the threaded inserts that are required to put it together. Instead of just sending me the inserts so I could put them in myself they sent me two new side panels. What a waste!!! They just arrived and I am missing the inserts again!!!! Now I have four side panels plus the rest of the dresser that I must dispose of. This is the worst online shopping experience I have ever had. I am demanding a refund.More detail ...

Great Dresser

I was very indecisive about purchasing the 4 drawer or the 3 drawer dresser. I plan to use it as a changing table but wanted enough space to store things. I decided to go with the 4 drawer so I had enough space and it's a perfect size. Some pictures of this dresser make it look a little off-white but it's truly white. The instructions were easy to follow and went together great and fairly quickly (2 hours from unpacking to carrying it to the room). The dresser seems a little fragile as I already have a very small chip in the paint but overall I think this was a great purchase.More detail ...
