Prepac Astrid 6 Drawer Tall Chest, Black

From the packaging to the final product, I honestly couldn't find a single flaw. The directions are super easy to follow. Nothing like the typical "translated from Chinese" directions included with most items.I have built several custom homemade dressers for myself and others and this kit impressed me quite a bit. It's super easy to build. All the pre drilled holes actually lined up perfectly. (Which never happens with these kits)The drawer slides are surprisingly smooth. It feels very solid and long lasting. It even came with a black 'touch up' marker to fix any imperfections caused during the construction. I just used a soft blanket to avoid needing the marker.All around, this is a fantastic dresser. I'd even say that if this cost twice as much.Definitely recommend to anyone searching for a new dresser.

I bought this chest with great trepidation due to the negative reviews that I saw on Amazon. However, after months of searching I decided to go ahead and order it as it was exactly what I was looking for. I received it and put it together the other day, and will say that I was pleasantly surprised! Not only did the product arrive totally undamaged, but all parts were accounted for as well. Although I've only had it for 2 days, here are my pros and cons at this point:Pros:1. As I stated, the product was received in perfect condition. I was not expecting this based on the reviews that I read.2. I found it extremely easy to put together, although tedious. A lot of things that need to be screwed together, but pretty simple. I guess it took me about 4 hours putting it together by myself.3. I was surprised to find that the back piece was thicker than expected. It is 1/2 inch particle board. I thought it would be more like the thin cardboard that is used as backing on bookshelves and other types of cabinets.4. Once screwed together it seems pretty solid. The drawers do jiggle a bit when pulled in an out, but nothing too extreme and not unexpected for this price point.5. The drawers are large and very roomy. I bought this to store my various electronic accessories and it works perfectly.Cons:1. Whereas the back panel was heavier than I expected, the bottom of the drawers is much lighter than expected. The drawer bottoms are basically a thick piece of cardboard, so you need to watch the amount of weight you put in them. Unless you're in the habit of dropping things into drawers however, I do not expect that this will be a problem as long as I keep the weight limit in mind.2. Although the instructions did not call for it, in order to add more support to the drawers I used glue in the groove to attach the drawer bottoms in addition to the screws provided.3. Overall the assembly was very easy; all of the pre-drilled holes where where they should be. The one thing it was lacking however were holes for the finishing nails to use on the drawer bottoms. Rather than spending five minutes trying to tap in each nail, I drilled holes which made the nailing job easy.4. The rails the drawers ride on are metal but they have a plastic wheel. Only time will tell how well this plastic wheel will hold up.5. Be sure to pay attention to the instructions when they say not to over tighten screws! I put a small crack in one of the drawer sides over tightening. I also put a small bulge in the side panel by hammering the wood dowel in too hard. This was my bad, but keep it in mind.6. I thought it was a bit pricey for the money, but it had the exact dimensions that I needed. If I had a little more room to play with there were other options that were cheaper than this product.All things considered, I am very happy with this purchase. Hopefully there will not be a problem with the plastic wheels on the drawer glides in the future.

I bought this to put in an extra bedroom in my home. It’ll probably never really be used (inside) but the price and look was great for me!For just under 145.00 I am extremely satisfied. The quality appears to be decent and if you don’t mishandle or be rough this could potentially last for a many of years. The inside drawers are not too small for a slim/narrow chest. Assembly was very easy. I followed the instructions and it was a breeze. All parts minus one nail was missing. The one nail didn’t effect finishing assembly however the seller should automatically include a few extras of nails etc even if it’s only 2 or 3 to be safe because about 2 or 3 instantly broke as if they were rotted or no good. Overall if your on a budget or not looking for anything on the upper side I recommend purchasing this.

I got this for a lingerie chest to replace one I’ve had for about 15 years. The directions are a little odd, but overall it was pretty idiot proof to assemble. not all the parts are labeled so it did take some guess work. One complaint is that one of the sides was cut wrong so it has a bit of a gap in the back which touches the wall, which is not the biggest deal. My biggest complaint is that At some point during shipping, the bag with all of the hardware came open inside, and it apparently rolled around in the box and scratched some of the pieces -again they give you a touchup marker not a big deal-But also, the hardware was not packaged separately from one another very well and a lot of them look almost identical, but they’re not the same. A few of the screw locks actually broke while we were tightening the piece together and believe me, we were two women that weren’t turning it very roughly and they still snapped. You definitely need a buddy to help you put this together because there are some pieces that need to be held up while they are being attached to the other. Overall, it will still work for what I need it for. I will say, however, if you are going to line the bottoms of this piece with any kind of drawer liner or contact paper do so before you finish completely assembling the drawers-It will actually help to hold the drawer in a little more securely.

This fits in my kids room perfectly and the drawers are a good size for his clothes. I wouldn't, as an adult, be able to use this as a dresser. But for kids or like a guest room it's great. Sturdy, well built. Easy to build and holding up well
