HodedahHI70DR White Chest of Drawers with Locks

I like it. I've only had it a few weeks but so far so good. Everything arrived in perfect condition, nothing was damaged. WARNING!!! it has a lot of pieces to put together. I have put together A LOT of furniture so this was not hard nor the hardest thing I have put together, BUT a first timer will want to cry. The advantage of THIS dresser is the instructions are VERY detailed. Most instructions are vague or only a picture with pointing arrows. These instructions are assembly friendly. If you're a beginner, I would suggest to find something to keep the hardware in order, like the muffin tin I used, this is the first thing I do when assembling anything. It took a good 3 hrs to assemble, that includes inspecting every piece separating the hardware and snacks within arms reach.I would suggest having someone help with assembling the middle; It will be slightly difficult to install the planks to each end without help. You need a Phillips head screw driver and a hammer. You should not use a drill for the screws but I did for most the the assemble, you can mess up if you screw it too tight and split the wood but I do this a lot and know how to control the torque on the drill.The drawers are 27 inches wide (side to side) 13 inches long (front to back) and 4 inches deep.This dresser is pretty sturdy, it's just to hold clothing, it's not in a kids room, no one is going to climb on it.The top drawers with lock and key is cute --IT'S NOT A SAFE-- but if you have roommates or someone that will be mosey; this can be a deterrent. It would be obvious if someone tried to tamper with it.All and all it's a nice dresser but if this is your first time assembling this will take a long time and be frustrating.I would suggest it to a friend and help them put it together :)

完成品ではなく組立家具でした。かなり重量があり、専門の配送会社からの配送でした。厚さ16mmの板に同じ穴を使用してレールにM3.5×1６のねじで取り付ける指示があり、物理的に取り付け不可でした。ホームセンターでM3.5×10のねじを購入してきて、取り付けできました。上段のカギの取り付けについては下穴がなく、説明書どおりに組み付けると化粧板がボロボロになり取り付け不可、パテで埋めて取り付けることに、なかなか完成までに労力が必要な代物です。

This dresser is a piece of crap. I’m in college so putting together the money to even buy the dresser was a pain in the ass and then to get it and it just fall apart every time I try to use it was just a giant disappointment. Almost every single piece of wood has it’s paint or sticker or whatever it is torn off or scratched or buffed probably from factory packing because the delivery was very sturdy and good. The body of the dresser was decently good to put together. The only thing that was bad about the body was the locking black plastic pieces. No MATTER how hard you hammer, you cannot get the plastic dowels to stick together. I dented some of the pieces of cheap wood by simply trying to build it, making the top bowed. The metal locking pieces are the biggest problem on the drawers and once again the plastic dowels. The only thing that I could do to save it was to screw a long screw into the side of the drawer to help it stay together and even then it just doesn’t look good. You definitely cannot just put this together with a screw driver either, you NEED power tools unless you’re the hulk. Half of the holes are not screwed in and half of the pieces where the holes were provided just made it splinter and break more. The drawers are not flush because the front is simply falling off. The locking screws are awful and break the second you pull the dresser drawer. The only halfway decent things are the locking drawers and the body portion. I would send it back and demand my money back but at this point it’s just so much of a hassle to even take it apart and send it back. Do NOT waste your money on this piece of crap, especially if you’re like me and were expecting a halfway decent piece of furniture that at least stays together when you go to use it. The problem with companies like this is they scam you out of your money by sending you the cheapest piece of wood and worst screws to work with and incorrect tool instructions as well.

Love the locking drawers

First off, there are a lot of negative reviews related to chips, scratches, and damage to the product. This is a complaint directed to the method and treatment during delivery and not the product itself. Ignore them. The product is properly packed to withstand reasonable bumps during delivery. It would be nice if it had paper between the boards, but in my examination it is not necessary as the veneer is durable and the packing is tight enough that there is minimal movement.There are also a lot of negative comments in reviews about the amount of time. I am relatively good with tools and assembly took me about 2 hours.That said, this is not high quality furniture. It's cheap and you get what you pay for. Except for one piece, all parts are all particle board with a paper printed veneer. They are delicate until assembled and relatively strong after.The hardware is cheap but functional. Metal slides and plastic handles. That are not top notch but they do the job. Importantly, the pre drilled holes are accurate and reliable.I do fault the assembly for the particle board drawer bottoms. They are thin and will work fine for light duty, but any weight and there will be issues. Clothes are fine, but a rock collection is not.The instructions are no nonsense but reasonable. If you have any missing screws ( I did not) they are detailed in the instructions and an equivalent is common at the hardware store.I deviated from the instructions in a several key ways:First, predrilled holes for screws on the sides of the dresser are not countersunk. I wanted the screw heads flush so I modified it.Second, those screws are meant to pull the sides into the dividers for tight assembly. Do not rely on the screws to do the work. It's just particle board and it will strip. Best advice is to use a clamp to pull them tight, then screw together.Third, the dowels are nylon. Durable, but I replaced with wood dowels and glued them for additional strength.Lastly, most of the surfaces are veneer but for any wood to wood I added glue for extra strength.4/5 stars because it would not have been much expense for better hardware.
