Assembly TipHannahWe've been using Storklinta products and we're quite happy with them. This is the first five drawer we have purchased and assembled. As with any unassembled furniture, instructions must be followed carefully. We took the first piece apart twice to correct our errors. Pay careful attention to the two thick, smaller interior pieces shown in step 5, the holes are not drilled in the center and it's easy to install the piece upside-down. You won't know until the drawers won't go all the way in and you might be baffled about this for a few minutes. You will have to take most of the unit apart to correct this.5
Pleased with the dresser.BernVery pleased with the dresser. The narrow width doesn't take up too much space, but the drawers are roomy. For those of you self assemblers the safety drawer set up can be removed.5
Exactly what I neededKateIf you look at the instructions very very carefully, you’ll do fine. The bad reviews helped me be more diligent in my attention. I was able to put this together by myself in about 3ish hours (I didn’t work continuously). It’s a sturdy small chest of drawers and is exactly what I’ve been looking for. 5
Perfect for my needs but...JulieBefore building any IKEA item in the future I am going to read through the reviews first! This item has a very important detail in the instructions missing. The two thick boards that are in the dresser for support MUST be put in with the holes along the sides closest to the top of the thick board. We got it completely assembled and realized that two of the drawers would not go in all the way because they hit the supports. IKEA needs to edit their instructions to point out this VERY CRUCIAL detail.3

Amazing BrendaI love itt very spacious 5
Drawers dont fit if you dont interpret the instructions correctly TaviaPut entire dresser together and two drawers didnt fit. There should be clearer instructions to ensure this doesn't happen. Maybe add a sticker stating top or bottom to help installation is done correctly.1

Good Quality, Easy to AssembleAngelicaGood quality, easy to assemble.4
Very AngryCarissaI have put together a lot of IKEA furniture without issue. Not only is this dresser extremely heavy and difficult to manage for one person - the instructions are very complicated. One of the weight shelves I installed upside down ??? Honestly not sure because the instructions are so unclear and now the drawer won’t close properly. The cam locks are already installed so I can’t take the dresser apart. I’ve never been more upset putting together a piece of furniture. After 4 hrs of work I have nothing to show for it. Honestly, I would not purchase this dresser if I were you! 1
SturdySonyaSturdy as a stand alone and fits nicely inside a closet, which is what I did for storing smalls. Lots of assorted pieces in this line to fit everyone's needs. I needed help putting it together but once assembled it looks great. Safety regs want it attached to a wall and if you can't accommodate this highly recommend step, you can only open one drawer at a time so it doesn't fall over on someone. 5
5 drawer chestKarenNice style, pretty design, but poor quality.
Drawers do not pull out smoothly and material seems flimsy. I have bought other chest of drawers from IKEA and have been happier with the quality. Disappointed in this brand.3
Great DresserKatelinLove this dresser! It fits perfectly where I needed to put it. I am glad I did read the reviews as I saw that the stabilizers in the middle needed to be flipped in order for the drawers to clear them, make sure that the "screw holes" are facing the top instead of the bottom during building and you won't have an issue with drawer clearance. Took me about 3 hours to complete with a friend. Very sturdy, I would highly recommend!5
Great dresser but a taskMichaelThis dresser is a challenge to build. I build many IKEA pieces in past, this was much more difficult. But in the end I love it. Very solid and smooth drawers.4
Dresser BettyIt fit perfectly in the space I needed the only thing drawers were little smaller than expected but used organization clothes dividers which helped it.5
IMMEDIATELY BUYLaquonnaPlease discard any bad reviews, I am a 24 year old single female and this took me 2 hour to put together! Super easy and cute, compared to other brands the drawers are LARGE plenty of room!5
Dresser perfect for small spacesLindseyI really like my new chest of drawers, but only because I knew ahead of purchasing this dresser that many people struggled to get the drawers to fit right. So I went into it with my eyes wide open. It was going together seamlessly until we tried to put the drawers into the tracks for the middle section of drawers & they wouldn’t fit. The 2 horizontal supports, were preventing the drawers from sliding all the way in. It’s the problem everyone else had run into. I am lucky in that on Reddit there was already a thread going about this dresser. The drawers do fit, but the IKEA instructions had it so the 2 horizontal supports weren’t going the right direction. We had to carefully disassemble the majority of the dresser in order to flip each piece over so the other side of holes were facing forward and then put it all back together, after that the drawers went in fine! And it did NOT involve cutting anything down!4
Poorly designed, not worth the priceAriannaOne of the large side pieces was damaged in the box and the box did not have any damage to it. I do not drive and so continued on since the damaged part would not be easily visible. Like other reviewers, I had issues with the two pieces of wood. When I removed the top drawer to disassemble the main piece and flip them, the plastic pieces that hold it together fell apart. In looking at similar parts throughout, I also noticed that other plastic parts were cracked or distorted. I have no confidence that this will last. Very poorly designed and overpriced for the quality as it is very cheaply made.1
Looks good, very solid... a real "project" to put togetherMark A real "project" to put together!!!5
