" ... Assembly was fine, but after a month the drawers are starting to fall off the rails each time I open it. ... "
" ... We have had it 4 months and 2 of the drawer tracks have broken, the particle board is peeling up at some edges. ... "
" ... Particle board crumbled when attempting to insert screw with anchor. ... "
" ... The parts are cheap and break easily if I didn't have the whole thing put together before the drawers I would have figured a way to send it back. ... "
" ... Box came with broken panel and a panel with a large scratch that is likely a start to a break. ... Way too many pieces to assemble. ... "
" ... It broke apart WHILE I WAS ASSEMBLING IT!! ... "
" ... My only complaint was that the side trim pieces will not stay put with the “Blue Rapid Rod” dowels. ... I suppose if you put he dresser where you want it and then push the trim pieces on and avoid hitting or snagging them (they stick out about a 1/2”) then you are good. ... Otherwise they are going to be falling off everytime you bump them. ... "
" ... The cheap particle board can't even hold up during assembly. ... Less than a hour out of the box, the screws ripped out and tore open the particle board while putting it together. ... "
