Nice Nightstands SarahPainted white & changed out the knobs. Have had for a couple of years & they're good quality. I recommend.
Long time owner; 10+ years…JenniferThe Tarva series is fantastic, so easy to assemble, and maintain. I’ve had the full set (bed, nightstands, dressers) for 10+ years now (only upgrading from a queen headboard to a king in all this time). The set, including two of these nightstands, has survived a growing family and several long-distance moves. It’s beautiful, natural, is produced non-toxically, and literally lasts for years. I recommend all of the Tarva pieces.

Nice little bedside tableSherryTook a stain well, fairly easy to put together, drawers work well. Really like them.
Tarva night table. RosaThe table is solid and the drawer slides beautifully
Very poor quality controlJosephSomewhere there's a quality control department or manufacturing manager who doesn't really care for quality of workmanship in an Ikea factory. Peg and screw holes are drilled out of square, impacting the fitment of multiple pieces in the overall construction and to a comical degree. I suspect someone isn't squaring up a drilling jig or tooling is badly worn. Icing on the cake is a substantial chip taken out of the wood top as well. Packing was intact and sealed, so this happened in manufacturing or packaging. Wood tops aren't on the spare part list. I'm fully aware we're not purchasing family heirlooms here but after these issues repeated among the last 4 other products I bought from Ikea, I don't think I'll ever be a return customer.
Somewhat worriedNancyThe table came very well packed ant the wood grain is nice looking and strong. Unfortunately one piece was very damaged and shouldn’t have left the factory. I called IKEA which was difficult to find the correct phone number. They will send just the damaged part. I’m worried about this but hopefully it will be corrected in a timely manner without additional phone calls.
Not "Untreated" WoodMaureenUntreated wood refers to wood that hasn't been chemically treated to resist decay and insects, while "unfinished wood" simply means the wood has not been stained, painted, or sealed with a protective coating. The stench was overpowering and filled 2 rooms in my house. Even the box it came in stank. I feared for my parrots and quickly got it out of the house and into the garage where it awaits pickup for a return; a looong and laborious process.
Shipping was a problemHankOrdered as a Christmas present and IKEA failed to ship the product out until I went online to ask what was happening. Not gonna make this mistake again. If you can’t deliver product on time I don’t want to do business with you. Christmas presents arrived after holidays because of your delay / disorganized shipping.
Good looking but ...AlexI got 2 of these, they are easy to put together but just a lot of steps. The pieces are a bit rough and I wish they were sanded smoother -- but this is the quality you get for this price nowadays. Also as other posters say, the quality control is hit or miss. One of the pieces has all 3 holes drilled so out of spec and not aligned, I am lucky to live near an Ikea store so I could drive back and get an replacement. The drawer is not soft close, I added felt so the sound of closing the drawer is bit softer; I have also added hard plastic pad to the legs so it is less likely to scratch up floors when moving it around.
In summary, nice looking furniture, wish it has better quality for this price point, 50/50 chance of if you need to get some replacement part.
Do not buy!!!!!JingruThe assembly is a real pain. Several parts are impossible to align. Stupid design and honesty don’t wait time or your money to get mad at this crappy design.
Good but pricey..AlanI bought 4 of these for my tropical themed bedroom..First off they are expensive factoring price & time to build if you ask me,when you can get fully assembled night stands for $50.00 these days..Second the instructions are HORRIBLE..ABSOLUTELY NO WRITTEN instruction,follow along pictures only & NONE OF THE PIECES ARE NUMBERED!!! You better pay close attention to the orientation of things like all the holes on the pieces & the stepped edges where the backing pieces go...LASTLY there is NOWHERE on EARTH you can find the dimensions of the INSIDE STORAGE AREA of the stand,which are 15 7/8" wide x 6 5/8" high x 14 1/2" deep....
It took me 40 minutes to build so nothing too time consuming..Everything lined up fine & it's good & sturdy IF YOU MAKE SURE to tighten the quick lock screws properly...
Looks pretty good when finished building...
Nice looking but bad hardwareKelseyScrews stripped immediately upon use and the nails to put the back on snapped and weren’t strong enough to go through the wood. Once we got it together it looks nice but not good quality
Real wood, but some failed parts DuannaLove the wood grain, there are pieces in 1 set failed (cracked) so makes the entire box useless.
Hot garbage! Such a bummer! :-(MatthewThis nightstand should be a really nice, simple wooden piece of furniture that’s highly-flexible to be transformed via paint and stain.
Unfortunately, the reality is that the engineering and assembly is a total nightmare. This piece uses pre-dried starter holes, and they did not create enough precision to create a solid fitment and feel. We purchased two units so I can confirm if this is a problem across all and not just a single, bad copy. If you look at many of the other negative reviews, they say the exact same thing and they are correct. What a shame and what a waste of time and energy!
Lots to put togetherAbbeyTakes a lot of time and effort to put together, but once completed, beautiful!
Beautiful night standPeterThis is super nice and was relatively easy to assemble.
great quality and looksDanawhile this was a 'bugger' to put together, my husband did the work and thank goodness he is handy!. But it is a very sturdy furniture, the quality and look of this unfinished piece is great and for the price it is exceptional!

Material
What is solid wood?
Solid wood is one of our favorite materials and is part of our Scandinavian heritage. It is also a timeless material with many uses. Regardless of the tree species, it is durable, beautiful and renewable. We strive to use this raw material as smartly and efficiently as possible to avoid waste – and we also invest in facilities and logistics so that we can increase the use of recycled wood.

"Both the simple design and the untreated wood are typical for the Scandinavian furniture tradition. With TARVA series we wanted to show our roots and create a modern, airy design. We think it's nice to be able to feel the natural material just as it is. The wood is beautiful in its own right and it's also renewable. And because you can stain or paint it without further treatment, everyone can create their own TARVA. In that way, the design becomes a collaboration between us and the person who decorates it."
