Simply Modern 6-Door Dresser

I feel like I need to clear the air on this product! I put this together rather easily but it is a job and will take a few hours. Some of the reviews on here seem very odd to me as my experience with this Dresser was not problematic at all. The manual is very well done and way better than most especially if you have ever put together IKEA products. This manual makes IKEA manuals look like stone tablets from 2000 B.C. as it is very detailed which is greatly appreciated. I will say that if you are a novice, there may be 1 or 2 things within the assembly manual that aren't exactly clear and may leave you to leave a piece off or install the drawer rails upside down but if you carefully READ the sentences at the top or bottom of the page, you won't make a mistake. Don't just go by the pictures, actually read the instructions! The 2 bottom pieces are interchangeable (clearly stated in the manual) and are different designs. It is your preference of which one to use. The picture shows the plain one in front. I used a more decorative one and will post pictures later. The drawer rail boards that mount to the center piece and have the rails installed on them are clearly stamped L or R (Left or Right) and the rails are clearly marked with DL or DR (Drawer Left or Drawer Right) to avoid any confusion. When it was all said and done, the quality of the wood was actually very study and the black shines greatly once you wipe off the particles that result from packaging. If you are trying to save money, I think you will love this dresser. Try not to be swayed by the reviewers who clearly don't put together furniture or other items very much. I am an engineer and have assembled many things but even so, I promise this dresser is not hard to assemble if you have patience and read your steps clearly before proceeding. Take your time! There are a lot of fasteners and hardware pieces to use so allow a few hours to do the work. The drawers take the most time but are very sturdy when finished. The camshafts (locked fasteners that look like screws) are color coded to ensure you put the right ones in the correct places. As for missing hardware, I did not experience this but if you buy enough furniture that requires assembly, you will run in to this at least a time or two. This dresser looks amazing when finished especially with the high quality knobs that come with it for the drawers. Now will this dresser stand the test of time? That will remain to be seen but take proper care of it and I think it will last a long time and save you a lot of money!

I bought this item almost two years ago but when I received it I had a lot of other things to do so I didn't open the box and time went by but today when I decided to put it together it was my disappointment because the top part is damaged and it's been so long since I ordered it so I can't return it. Besides, the manual explains in some steps which screws to use in others not and you have to guess, the parts are not marked either, they have no number or letter so it was quite a challenge to assemble it and lastly it is very fragile. The lesson in all of this is to always check things when you receive them so that you don't get a surprise later and not be able to do anything about it.

I picked out this Prepac Sonoma 6-Drawer Dresser knowing it wasn’t a high-end furniture piece but hoping for something functional and decent-looking. Overall, not a whole lot of qualms!Pros:✅ Nice Aesthetic – The drifted gray finish is modern and neutral, blending well with different decor styles. It has the look of a higher-end piece from a distance.✅ Spacious Drawers – The six drawers offer a good amount of storage. This is definitely a full sized dresser with good capacity.✅ Affordable for the Size – Given the dimensions, this dresser is reasonably priced compared to similar options.Cons:❌ Time-Consuming Assembly – Be prepared to spend at least a couple of hours putting this together. The instructions are straightforward, but there are many parts, and assembly isn’t quick. A power screwdriver helps. Not a deal breaker since that’s really in the front end.❌ Not Solid Wood – This is particle board with a laminate finish. It looks good but it doesn’t seem built for heavy use or frequent moves. There’s already a little knick on the face of the bottom right drawer from who knows what after a couple months of routine use.If you need a budget-friendly dresser that looks nice and offers decent storage, this gets the job done. It’s sturdy in place, but don’t expect premium materials or extra durability. Great for guest rooms, kids’ rooms, or like for us, something to bridge the gap for a few years until we get a good master bedroom set—but probably not a lifelong investment piece.Factoring in the price point, 4/5 ⭐️
