Error in assembly instructionsDanielleDresser seems solid. Some issues in previous models seem to have been resolved, such as an added center brace to support the bottom of the drawers. It is true that the drawers don’t open as wide, but I believe that is to prevent structural issues and/or tipping, so I’m willing to deal with that.
In the assembly instructions, when you are directed to attach the drawer guides, the instructions tell you to attach CR to both sides. However, this is inaccurate. One side will use CR, the other side will use CL. 4
Enjoy the product.PatriciaI brought one a couple years ago and I love it My husband wanted one so I brought him one for Christmas and he has put it together already. I only notice the colors dont match as they dont have the same dark grey I had brought but it works.5
Sides have no support and bow outJoeSince there are no supports across the front, the sides cannot handle the weight of the massive drawers and bow out causing the drawers slides to not work. Fundamental design flaw.1
Unsteady and doesnt have enough space NimeshaDrawers doesnt work properly. 1
New version has shall opening!!bewareTravisThey changed the design and the new one does not open far enough to get stuff in the back of the drawers. Boo3
Great chest of drawers.TamaraDeep drawers hold a lot of stuff. This is my second purchase. Would buy again.5
just what I wantedGreggI have to admit, this was the perfect purchase, the style, color and the size are just perfect for my bedroom. I brought two and the ease of putting them together was another plus. When I say this item was just I wanted, I really mean this, after looking at several stores for a chest I'm so happy I found the Brimnes.5
Love itChristyIt was a lot of work to put together, many pieces!
But it looks great !5
Great 4 drawerMichaelPerfect for my space and storage5
AwesomeDominiqueLove the look and design , fo just wish the drawers came out a little more but I could understand for safety reasons as to why they don’t .5
Looks great love it!IvonneI was unsure about buying this dresser but it looked great! One Happy customer!5
Very niceMarkEasy to assemble and looks great5
Really good, could be betterRobertSolid and attractive piece of furniture. Should be a little deeper. The drawers feel like they don’t quite open enough. If the whole thing was maybe 3 or 4 inches deeper, there would probably be less of a tipping concern.4
My Daughter love thisFallanThis was a great purchase for my daughter 23 who love all white but this unit has charm5
not the same?TelonnaI ordered the BRIMNES in gray since I previously had the black version a few years ago. I’ve always liked BRIMNES because it’s solid and long-lasting it even survived my move, while my HEMNES pieces didn’t. But with this gray one, something feels different. The drawers don’t pull out far enough it’s almost like they’re more closed than open. I’m guessing IKEA changed the design for safety reasons, maybe to prevent drawers from falling out on kids, but it takes away from the functionality. The limited opening makes it harder to actually use the storage space inside, which is disappointing since that’s one of the main reasons I liked BRIMNES in the first place.

Great dressers!!SherryI love IKEA furniture the easiest furniture to put together. Everything was precise and well made.5
The price is right. MartinBare bones but functional. Some connections and panels will not age well. Full extension hardware would be worth a little extra $ but you get what you pay for. Easy assembly if you can read ikea. 4
Difficult to assemble but worth itJadaIt takes forever to get this one put together. And even more time to get all the drawers in correctly. We spent a lot of time fixing mistakes we made but when it was assembled correctly it works exactly as advertised. I’m happy5
Good productDavidVery nice product, good quality. It should have a optional piece to cover first draw so it won’t have a small hole at back.5
Great product for the priceRoseEasy to follow instructions and quality materials for the price. Looks great! Only drawback is the drawers pull out half way, but I knew that before I bought them.5
