A nice looking moderate quality/price table that serves my needs. But the assembly process, though well documented, wasn t easy for a non-handy-man renter like myself. According to the assembly doc, there were seventy-six screws of various types that had to be put in. My right hand is still sore a day later from doing so. It s recommended you use a power screwdriver and I can see why! And it was all too easy to damage the unit when doing the required nailing down of certain components. It took me some time to determine the correct way to install the decorative stabilizers (with finish on one side only) in the correct way using the instructional image provided. So you need to be good with a hammer and hopefully have the needed power tool to get this unit together easily.
OK-this isn t high quality real-wood furniture. It s a put-it-together inexpensive alternative for the good quality stuff. For my purposes it is working out great. I think it is quite attractive and more importantly, tall enough to accomodate the height of my new bed. It really is a pleasure now to be able to just look over to see my alarm clock instead of having to scoot all the way over to the end of the bed and look down to see what the time is. It serves it s purpose quite well in that regard.
The assembly was pretty easy but it is best to have a cordless screw driver all charged up and ready to go. That will save alot of time and wear and tear on your wrists and arms. You can tell that you won t be able to place heavy objects in the drawers as the pieces used for it are quite thin and would not be able to hold much weight with out breaking in two. This dresser is meant for light weight stuff such as a box of kleenex, papers and a few paperback books. Definitely do not load up the drawers with heavy material or you will have a major headache on your hands. The open cubby above the drawers is a really handy space to have.
It came very well packaged with alot of protective packaging to it. I did not have any marks or chips on any of the pieces. All of the necessary hardware was there along with a few extra pieces which is always a thoughtful touch by the manufacturer on any given assembly required furniture. It also came with a marker pen but as of yet, I have not needed to use that. The very last thing I needed to do to complete this stand was to attach the very bottom drawer knob. Much to my surprise it was stripped. It fit ok on the screw but would just twirl around and around. I contacted via email and they sent out a new knob and screw via UPS. It took about 1 week to get to me as it is shipped from Canada. The new part(s) fit and work perfectly and I was very happy with the prompt attention I received.
For the price, the apperance, the ease of assembly I am very happy with this piece. It will do me just fine until I can afford to get a new complete bedroom set.
I purchased this nitestand to go with my harvest cherry bedroom suite. I have one nitestand that is part of the bedroom suite but wanted one on both sides. The color is very close to my original suite and also the style. My husband put it together in no time. Very happy with it!
Simple, functional nightstand big enough to hold books,lamp, etc without crowding. Went together easily. Clear directions, but use a power drill, takes forever if you don t. Took me about an hour or so, but I didn t rush. I m a 58 year old woman and if I can put it together by myself, anybody can. Drawer guides are a nice feature and the finish (white laminate) will be easy to keep clean. Good value for the money.

Nice Addition
I love these. The color is a warm (not dark) cherry and they are very well built for the money.
