The worstBrendaNot worth it even if inexpensive. Very difficult to assemble. Wood is too soft. Easily splits or breaks. Cam locks and pegs not secure enough. Screws difficult to put in completely. Nails into Masonite back were ridiculous. Soooo many parts. Plastic screws were are junk. Assembly drawings for top and side panels unclear. 1
HorribleCandyIf I could give this item 0 stars I would. First of all it looks like it was made for a doll house, the smell is so strong I had to air out my son’s room for two days before I got rid of it. Return? Yes like is easy to return a big box full of wood or whatever material this is. Ikea doesn’t offer much when it comes to their defective item but returns. You get stuck with their experiments figuring out how to get rid of them. Wasted $100+ on this garbage. 1
It’s Cheap and Effective GemeraIt took me 3 hours to build the dresser and it was due to user error. There was 1 whole that was not predrilled. If you don’t have an auto drill you will struggle. It’s nice and will get the job done til I get a long term one. It will do great in a guest room or short term storage option. Drawers pull out effectively and is pretty sturdy so far. I can see how it can be reviewed with 3 stars but my goodness it’s $99 for a 6 drawer dresser?!? You get what you pay for. lol love the cost effective option!! 5
Its great if you like to DIYRikkaI think this is an okay product from IKEA. It was a little more challenging to build but was able to follow a video on YouTube.
Overall, it is a small dresser but it works fine for my needs and is a great product for my DIY projects. 3
Buy the Storklinta insteadJosephI bought one of these and it was fine, except that it was very light, the sliders for the drawer were plastic, and it smelled very strongly of pine sap. You also had to finish/stain it, which was just a lot of work.
By comparison, the Storklinta was several times the weight, better finished, had metal hardware, and incredibly well designed and put together. One felt like desperation college dorm on no budget and the other was finished and a ready to go piece for a proper home.
Absolutely worth the extra money to get the Storklinta instead of this flimsy thing.1
Disappointing JessicaWe’ve had these for less than 1 year. They have plastic slides for the drawer and just about every one has broken and we can non longer slide the drawers in or out. Not only are the slides cheap plastic. Some of the drawers were too narrow to fit into the slides so the just fall down. 1
NooooChiahWon't get tight & screws fall out 1
Waste of money poor designPeterDrawers will not slide open easily because they not on metal rails, but it’s plastic rubbing against wood, if you paint it, its even worse.
Its embarrassing Ikea would release such a piece of useless furniture, very disappointing 1
DO NOT BUYAinsleyHalf the holes arent even drilled so assembly is impossible. Save yourself the return trip and just dont purchase.1
Very difficult to build from poor designBridgetWhen the screws go into the wood, it is so easy to chew up the wood so that the screws no longer fit in properly. Also, the depth of the wooden dowel holes are sometimes too shallow, so that the dowel will not even stay in. I don't think it is because I am poor at building, as I have been able to complete many Ikea builds before. Can't even return this product because I cannot bring it into the store myself, and shipping it back costs basically 2/3 the cost of buying this in the first place. Genuinely please save your time and money on something else.1
Just ok KMy partner did not take long building this dresser -quite simple to put together actually. I like that you can get creative and easily paint it to your liking. Its on the small sider and does not have much room for storage. I'd use this for a kids/ art room but not an everyday dresser. Also, the drawers do not pull out smoothly either. 3
Pine dresserShirbieI put this together myself. I took my time and got it all together. The price was perfect for quick storage.5
Disappointed with wood appearance ShannonThe dresser arrived on time and was mostly as expected. We were disappointed with one of the outside pieces that was finger-jointed in multiple places. If we were painting the piece it would not matter, but we are staining this because we like a natural wood look, and it will not look as nice as we had hoped. 3
WasteAbigailThis dresser is a waste of money. Screws won't go in like they are supposed to the drawers don't even stay on track 1
It fell apart the first week...DaisyI understand this is a cheap dresser, but not that cheap. The metal nuggets that holds the screw and the front of the drawer kept breaking. I broke 8 of those and I had to nail the drawers together but after one week it already fell apart. Ikea if you read these reviews just upgrade you little silver nuggets to not break. 1
Not worth itAshleyWood kept splitting, holes for screws weren’t big enough (particularly for the drawer slides), instructions were confusing. I’m an IKEA stan but this thing was not worth the frustration. 2
I am very disappointed.DanaI have always trusted Ikea, but this dresser is a disappointment (the drawers almost don't pull out... it's not worth the money!(1
Good Dresser, Good Quality, Simple AssemblyAbeyI've purchased this dresser because I need something functional and on a budget. This dresser met more than my expectations of it! If you're patient with assembling furniture, you will get this dresser right. Nice and firm, drawers slide in and out easily. I'm not sure what all the negative reviews are about, but I wouldn't listen to them if you're confident in furniture assembly. The instructions are simple I had no issue assembling the dresser. I love it! The pine smells great! I was considering painting it, but I'll leave it with its natural look! So, over all it's a good dresser for the price! I wouldn't pay much attention to the negative reviews because I can't relate to them. I more than happy with my dresser for a budget friendly price and adds character to any room!5
BummedRachelI’ve purchased ikea furniture before but this has been by far the worst one. Waste of $. 1
Hardest thing I’ve ever assembled RachealI’ve never had so many issues trying to assemble a product. None of the holes are drilled big enough or at all to put the screws and rods. I already stained it so I cannot return it. I’m so mad!!!!!1
