decent dresser good value

This dresser was for our nursery and it is the perfect fit and quality for a baby/child room. It would look odd in a master bedroom. There were a lot of screws and probably more than anything we have ever self assembeled. The wood color is true espresso and it matches our crib exactly from a high end baby furniture store. I would recommend this and would purchase again.More detail ...

nice looking but poorly built

This item is nice looking but poorly built. I was shocked at the poor quality as I expected more for the price. It says "some assembly required" but comes flat packed (like Ikea furniture but most Ikea furniture is better made) and has to be COMPLETELY assembled. I have assembled a lot of furniture in my life and this is by far the most poorly made. If I had not been charged so much for shipping I would have returned the dressers right away. I have only had them for a week and already two of the drawers have come apart and I have had to re-assemble. Think twice on this piece - I think you can find MUCH better for equal or less money.More detail ...

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 ...
