Product details

Integrated damper catches the running drawer and closes it slowly, silently and softly.

The concealed drawer runners ensure that drawers run smoothly even when heavily loaded.

Adjustable feet make it possible to compensate for any irregularities in the floor.

Use smaller boxes to organize the inside of your drawers and make sure even the smallest of items are easy to find. We offer boxes in a wide selection of styles and sizes.

The assembly of this product is simplified thanks to the wedge dowel that clicks into pre-drilled holes.

Reviews

Wouldn’t recommendJennaThe construction is of a lower standard than I’m used to with IKEA. As the parts began to crumble (and didn’t fit together properly), I decided to cut my losses and return the item. I’m searching for used Nordli dressers as the older models appear to be sturdier.1
Low Quality; Drawers Disintegrating During AssemblyKatieI should have read the reviews. Like others, I have put together almost an entire 4 bedroom home full of Ikea furniture and have never had as much trouble as I have with this drawer set. The friction fit is off where the drawer sides meet the front, so the bottom cannot fully seat in place, which in turn blocks the back of the drawer from connecting correctly. The drawer sides and back are crumbing off in pieces, so I can’t put any pressure on them to try and slide them fully into place so the slot lines up. Such a disappointing and frustrating experience, especially at this price point. IKEA has some amazing furniture series, but Nordli isn’t one of them. And yes, I know I can return, and I will be once I can carve out 3+ hours of drive time I wasn’t planning for. Don’t be me. Bring home anything other than Nordli and save yourself the trouble.1
Nice soft-close drawers, good heightRachelI’m not sure why there are so many bad reviews on these. They were super easy to assemble (zero tools or even the mini wrench required). They’re a good height next to the NORDLI bed. I have zero complaints and really like the soft-close drawers.5
Worst ikea product I’ve ever purchasedJenniferI didn’t read reviews before buying as I picked it out in the store. Huge mistake. Like others have said it is a nightmare to assemble and even following directions it kept falling apart. I’ve assembled so many ikea items over 20 years. I’m not a novice. Even once I got it assembled it feels like it will fall apart if moved around. I’m planning to return it. Also for $99 should be much better quality. 1
pieces don’t fit togetherVeronicai have the nordli dresser and the only issues i had with that one came from my own incompetence so i wanted the nordli chest of drawers to match. however, the drawers themselves are so incredibly difficult to out together its not worth it. i should have listened to the reviews before buying this. the sides of the drawers are supposed to line up with an indent on the front of the drawer but they dont line up so i cant fully assemble the drawers themselves to put it all together. incredibly frustrating.2
Worst assembly everClaraDont buy it, just get the malm. Assembling this was a nightmare 1
Simple NightstandZackAssembly is fine and sure it would be nice if it was stackable but it serves its purpose well. 5
Assembling nightmarePeterGood luck assembling it. I had no problems with other IKEA furnitures but this one was extremely difficult to put together. The other problem is that the back of this Nordli drawer is ugly brown which you cannot see on the online pictures. I’m keeping it because the similar Malm drawer is not available currently but I recommend the white Malm drawer instead of this Nordli. 2
Impossible Assembly, Extremely Poor EngineeringKarthikI’ve purchased several IKEA products over the years with great results, but this 2-drawer chest was a major disappointment. It is impossible to assemble without breaking, despite following the instructions carefully. I’m honestly shocked that this product made it past design and quality control. I regret buying it without checking past reviews, as this was an extremely frustrating experience—so much so that I created an account on the website just to write this review. IKEA, you can do better.1
Horrible quality, horrible engineeringAnonymousI have been building ikea furniture since 30 years with no issues and I build a huge nordli 6 drawer chest with NO problem . I want these to match my bedroom set but they are just not possible to put to build, they literally fall apart while building . I just don’t know what to do but this is an ikea engineering problem and not consumer problem 1
Not stackable anymoreFatmaLooks like it is not modular anymore 😞 i was hoping to put 1 of them on top of the other, but it is not possible with the new design.I am a bit disappointed after taking them home and building one already2
Horrible assemblyBryceI had one Nordli drawer from 2021 and wanted to buy a second to match it. Since then, they have “updated” the build, which involves removing a few pegs in exchange for slotting the drawers together. This new design is horrible; you will almost assuredly do cosmetic, if not structural, damage during assembly. 2
No stars : worst machines/build ever purchased ShaunThe only reason I’m keeping it is because I didn’t want to admit defeat on how horribly this thing fell apart while assembling it not to mention this brand product is going to have some defects coming out the gate on first wave. When you assemble the bottom piece of the drawers sliding in the groove, and you attach the back piece over the lip, be prepared to walk on eggshells as it will definitely fall apart. But the fact that it got destroyed was Sun I’m pretty sure I’d be denied either way. Looks great though :-)1

IKEA takes the lead to reduce the risk of tipping

At IKEA, we want to create a better everyday life for the many people – and a safer life is a better life. That’s why we constantly work to develop innovative stability solutions.

Furniture tipping over is one of the home furnishing industry's most serious safety issues and we’ll never stop working on innovative stability solutions for our storage furniture. A tip-over accident can happen when you least expect it. It could be someone using a drawer as support to stand up or children climbing to reach something on top. But no one can predict all the scenarios that everyday living at home can create. That’s why the best way to avoid tipping accidents is to always anchor the furniture to the wall. But we also offer new stability solutions that help make our storage furniture safer. One example is our stability feature Anchor and Unlock. "It means that the chest of drawers must be anchored to a wall to be able to open more than one drawer at a time, which reduces the risk of tipping, but doesn’t entirely remove it. By anchoring the chest of drawers to the wall, you unlock the drawers and can open them all at once," says Björn Andreasson from the development team. Another way we increase stability is to integrate it into the design. "With GREÅKER cabinet with drawers, for example, we´ve developed hinges that stop the doors at a 115-degree angle and keep them there to reduce the risk of tipping," says product developer Dagmara Pawlus. IKEA of course meets all safety requirements in our markets, but we don’t just settle for this. We often set higher demands than what legislation requires to help people enjoy a better everyday life – in a safer home.
