Pemberly Row Tall 7 Drawer Chest with 2 Locking Drawers and Garment Rod or Extra Storage in Black

This dresser, is a very nice looking dresser, but it has very weak wood and incompetent measurements. Now you're probably wondering why I'm saying incompetent measurements instead of saying incorrect measurements. Well the issue that I'm dealing with for the dresser that I have, has measurements that are off on a few items and that is causing the rest of the dresser to not function correctly and smoothly.The top two smaller drawers are drooping and are sitting on top of the first long drawer because the board that is supposed to support them is weak and dips in the middle. So not only are they now sitting on the top of the big drawer making it hard to open, but since they're drooping they cannot reach the locking point.Also one of the smaller drawers is sitting at least a centimeter out from the frame where it's supposed to be touching because the holes on the divider panel that goes to those smaller drawers has two sets of holes for the sliding mechanisms. One side is fine while the other is a centimeter further than the ones that are correct they are not symmetrical which is causing this process problem.The big door for this dresser has centimeter gap near the hinges because the hinges don't set right to the frame and so they have a jacked up looking non symmetrical looking dress door.Now to get to the incompetent part. I had taken this issue with the Hodeda headquarters to their customer service. Customer service was lovely.The H board that is defective was sent the same on all three the boards. The divider boards that they sent me to replace the one that's messed up have the same issue.Now during this whole process I'm doing very thorough emails that describ specifically what was wrong and sending very clear pictures. Now I understand that they might just have these parts in the warehouse, but to have me saying that there's a defective part SHOULD (the very word should doesn't mean it will happen) make you look at the rest of those parts to make sure there's not the same issue.So on the fourth try I talk to them in person and the lady who I talked to was very sweet and understanding and she herself was puzzled as to why it was coming back defective three times.So I don't really get an email saying what part they're sending me, but that they're sending me another replacement.Well I'm over at vacation and come back to find that they sent another full dresser. Now most people would be happy "Hey! Free dresser!", but I'm busy and it took me a while to put up this fresh dresser so I wasn't really all that happy. So before I take to making this whole dresser I looked at the measurements on that one as well. It had the same issues the board that's holding up the 2 tiny dresser drawers was flimsy (that's expected) so of course it's still gonna droop. The one drawer that sits out one centimeter will still sit out one centimeter because that divider board has that same messed up measurement on that one side like the others that've been sent. And the door will have a centimeter gap to the frame because the measurements are the same.So it's not a bad dresser in hindsight they just need a firmer board to hold up the 2 tiny dresser drawers correct measurements and this dresser will be completely fine. I mean I paid $200 something for this drawer only for it to not work and not be firm.

The product comes in two boxes. The instructions read “90 minutes” to assemble. I’m impressed if anyone could do that. Took me and my husband roughly 6 hours with mini bathroom breaks. It is an improvement from the previous dresser we had in our daughters room, more drawers and taller. Overall it is fine. Couple of drawers are a little wonky and it is a tad wobbly. Overpriced for what it is.

I like the many drawers. I love the locks. Don't really care for the woods. Getting wet messes it up instantly

I do not normally write reviews but I wanted to review this product because there were so many bad reviews and the product is not as bad as portrayed.It shipped in two boxes. I would suggest taking the pieces out in a garage or outdoors as the packing Styrofoam is very messy when taking the parts out. Lots of little bits of foam. Make sure you get all of the parts out and do not throw away the boxes until you are done. We left a set of rails in the box by mistake.We had no broken pieces as other reviews have stated. We did have a little bit of damage. I have attached pics of the damage. The wood scratches we just covered up with a black marker. I bent the lock back as good as I could. We are not locking it so no big deal to us.Assembly took a while and the instructions are not the best. But if you have ever assembled furniture like this before you should be ok if you take your time and check each step before you start. I would not recommend it for a novice. For the most part one person can assemble it with the help of another person here and there. I used a slow speed drill for the numerous screws. That helps.Overall the build quality is ok. For the price and free shipping we are happy. It is not a heirloom piece by any stretch but it fits our needs and style.

We were looking for a “sturdy” dresser for our son’s bedroom. We didn’t want to spend a lot of money on something that might be temporary. Shipping communication was confusing but the customer service was great and we received this piece on time as promised!Yes, this item comes in many pieces and if you go slow and steady, the reward will pay off as you will have a very sturdy piece. My husband took his time putting this together and he worked on it for a 2-3 hours at a time. At times it took two of us to reposition finished pieces. I really like the color of this piece as it matches pretty well with our woodwork and I love the versatility of the shelves, drawers and hanging space. I can lock medications in the top drawer which is a plus too. I think this piece will last longer than what I expected but I think it is because of how it was assembled. Don’t expect to assemble this in an hour or you will be easily frustrated when it appears to fall apart or it doesn’t hold up. There are other ones that are cheaper and they look identical to this one but I was willing to pay a little more because, on closer inspection of the pictures, this one looked like it was a little more sturdier than the cheaper version and the reviews were not that great. IF you are willing to spend 2-3 days putting together this piece, then it is worth it. You will get a sturdy, versatile piece of furniture.
