Review on White Wood Chest With 7 Drawers And Wheels - DEVAISE Storage Dresser Cabinet For Enhanced Organization by Timothy Cox

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Meh you get what you pay for

Product:- Many people mentioned scratches, but perhaps thats more of an issue with the white color. The black one I have has pretty even laminate color and doesn't seem to scratch easily. It is still particle board so you have to be realistic about the quality, but overall no complaints.- The drawers feel wider and deeper than I was expecting, but still on the shallow end. I also personally don't like when you can see things through the handle openings, so I also wont be trying to stuff the drawers until they can barely close. Process:- Overall, it's not difficult, but it is tedious and you should take your time. I spread it over a couple days, but probably a total 2-3 hours like most people said. These are not the type of directions where you skip steps or do things out of order. I did it by myself, but it would've been great if I had another person to split putting the frame together and the drawers. Probably could've knocked it out in an hour.- Directions are all in pictures. I found them fairly direct so far as furniture directions go. Not a lot of similar pieces to confuse. I'll post a sample. - I went back and forth about which way to face the two back panels since they were only coated on one side. Ultimately, I decided to have them face outward so it would look ghetto is I ever needed to sell it and you can't really see in the drawers once the drawers are in.- Many parts feel like it's wrong, until the last step makes it right, so you have to trust the process at times. For example, the bottom on the drawers don't seem secure since its only heldon two sides.until you put the rails on at the end.Tips: Read every review you can. Half the battle is knowing what you're signing up for.I used some $5 wood glue like someone recommended. Not sure if that helped, but overall it feels pretty sturdy and was a quick step to add. I'm probably being dramatic bc I have carpal tunnel syndrome, but the thought of doing this without an electric screwdriver seems masochistic. Just borrow one or buy something else.I used a blow dryer to loosen the annoying stickers people mentioned and they came off pretty easily. But there is the big one on the top, 3 on each drawer, and a few other misc ones, so it is still annoying. Troubleshooting:- If the drawers don't all even push in (uneven form the outside) then make sure all of the screws on the cabinet rails are flat (not mostly flat, all the way flat)- If the drawers don't roll smoothly, make sure all of the screws on the rails connected drawers themselves are flat. - Make sure drawer
