Cute dresser
This is a really cute dresser I got for my kid. It's doable for what I needed. I was nervous on the reviews but I'm glad I bought it. It says you shouldn't put a tv on top of up but I put a 32inch tv on it and it seems to be okay.

Worst product ever
This was the WORST purchase I have ever made. My son and I followed the directions STEP BY STEP. The dresser is not attached in the too middle so moving it around has to be done with ease or it will come apart. The back panel is super flimsy and comes of without even touching it. The bottom board is bent inward which causes a safety hazard because the dresser falls forward easily and is VERY heavy. Please RUN. I will never purchase anything from Mainstays ever again. I am trying to do a return and they are making it extremely difficult. NEVER AGAIN!! I wish i could give this 0 stars.

    Nice dresser, horrible FedEx
    Damaged upon arrival. Dresser looks like it is a nice buy for the price. However the FedEx shipping is horrible. Saw the delivery guy roughly handling the package then dropping it (literally) barely onto our porch. He left it in the snow and it's a cardboard box filled with particle board… we were out of town for the day so I had to have a friend move it to the door to prevent further damage. Damage is pictured with this review, the connecting pieces are broken loose and the top surface is cracked through and losing sawdust. Overall not Walmarts fault but still frustrating opening a package and the item will barely be usable (connecting pieces broken) right out of the gate.

    Very good dresser!
    Honestly I was contemplating whether I should or shouldn't purchase this dresser and I just went ahead and purchased it. I have never put any furniture together in my live and when I say this was the easiest thing ever, I seriously mean it!! The instructions were so simple, took me a day to complete it but honestly it's so worth it! Very cute and has plenty of storage room. It came a little chipped on the bottom drawer but honestly it doesn't bother me.

    Not bad. Not great.
    CON: Packaging came looking real rough. Which I should have guessed something could be wrong with a piece. I was right. It wasn't completely broken but came damaged and I was worried it would snap. There is no way I would be able to get this thing back to Walmart though. Took a star off for these issues. PRO: It's a decent dresser. It's cheap that's for sure but if you're wanting it for an extra room, get it. Easy to put together especially with a drill. Definitely takes 2 people if you are lugging that thing up any stairs. She thick. but one person and put it together. I had everything put together in an hour tops. It does what I bought it for.

    Easy and clean
    I love the style. It was easy to put together by myself. All the pieces were available. The only thing that didn't give it a 5 star was one of the drawers is slightly misaligned on the tracks. Not enough for me to have to send it back but it is definitely noticeable. Other than that it's a great addition to my room. I also change the knobs because I went down a Pinterest rabbit hole.

    0/5 Stars, would not recommend
    Long story short. Got my dresser on Friday, go to put it together and a piece is snapped in half, contact the company and they don't have the part in stock, contact Walmart and they send out a replacement once I send back the first one. Before I send it back I get an email a new one shipped. Got the replacement today the same piece is cracked and the top piece of the dresser has a huge crack in so we are sending it back and will not be purchasing again

    Great dresser.
    I'm so glad I didn't let the reviews change my mind on this dresser. For only $100 it's a steal! It's super sturdy and wasn't that hard to put together. It took about 2 hrs which is what it said it would take with 2 people. I'm also 32 weeks pregnant and was able to put it together just fine with little help! I could understand the dresser not working for adult clothes, which is why I'm using it for my nursery. Super excited to use it. You definitely have to take your time putting it together and make sure everything is all lined up which is why I give it 4 stars.

    Good looking dresser!
    Simple but takes a while to assemble. Would definitely recommend a drill to help time go by faster. The only complaint I have is that packaging and shipping must've messed up because I have a big crack in the center of the top panel. Luckily it's not too deep.

    I honestly love this Unit. I used it in our small business set up and it's very good, sturdy. I ordered 2 in the past and will order more in the future. I love how quick and responsive Andy and her supervisor of the customer service representative that I talked to about some queries about this unit. I do hope that they could have changed the system for me there(lol) i was to order 2 or 3 more units but with the deal, I ended up ordering 1unit. But I totally 100percent recommend this! Thank you Walmart, your people are amazing!

    Worst Product , worst CS team
    Bad quality. I had very bad experience with this product. First - Item delivered on time. But, it was left one the mail box area. As it's a heavy item I couldn't find enough support to get it to my unit. Spoke to Walmart CS team and none could resolve. Second - After spending much time in bringing item to my home , started assembling. To my surprise wooden sheets are broken. Package is in good shape. But , a damaged product is delivered. Spoke to Walmart CS team and scheduled a return. But , they wanted product to be re-packed. There are too many pieces in the box said - it's not possible for me to re- pack. Walmart guys didn't agree , after talking for 1 hr finally agreed to arrange another vendor to pick up item as is. Delivering a damaged product is their issue, why customer should take pain in returning ??

    Terrible quality
    I bought this for my sons room thinking he's just a toddler I don't need anything fancy. God I wish I spend a little more money on something better quality. This dresser was cheap material that would just crack when put together. I finally managed to get most of the pieces together and the drawers didn't go in right. It was a mess. It all broke before I was even able to finish it. Just a garbage product.

    Cracked/damaged pieces
    Huge heavy box 115lbs. Had to take every piece out of the box and sort them first. Only had enough parts for 4 drawers and there are 6 drawers. The wood sides of the drawers where the metal slides are preattached were completely damaged. The mdf wood was split and cracked on so many pieces it wasn't even worth ordering replacement parts. Then the top board had a huge hole gouged into it. Some damage could be due to shipping but the pre-installed railings that cracked the wood obviously happened during the manufacturing process. Could only upload 6 pictures and I have about 20 pictures. Every piece has some sort of damage to it. It's a piece of junk.

    Don't let the bad reviews miss this
    At first I was not very convinced because some bad reviews I saw, but I appreciate not paying attention to it because the truth is that this is a very good dresser and very nice, the assembly is very simple you don't need many tools but: The box weighs a lot!! So they must lift it between two, the only thing I didn't like is that the box was very dirty (although that's not the fault of Walmart or who makes the furniture) and it soiled the carpet and walls a lot... without further ado, I think I would give it 9/10 and only because of the issue of the packaging.

    Low-quality material breaks easily.
    This is crap. Particle board that splits when you try to assemble it with their pre-drilled holes. none of the drawers supports stayed intact, they all split leaving little to no support for putting items in the drawers. The wheel tracks, I wanted to check before installing the drawer...more than half the holes were stripped allowing the screws to turn freely. Returning this would be a nightmare since I had already assembled most of it and had decoupaged the drawer faces prior to assembly so, lesson learned. I will use it for the time that I can until it starts to fall apart, in the meantime, I will shop for better quality elsewhere.

    I love this dresser
    Okay, after reading all the reviews that almost discouraged me, I decided to take my chances with this dresser. First was deciding not to do the installation myself to avoid being frustrated with the process or the end results; so I added the expert installation option to my purchase and y'all, I am happy I took that chance. I love the end result, and my dresser was delivered without any damage.

    Low quality, long assembly
    Pressed cardboard, very delicate breaks easily, doesn't line up, not really worth it unless you're looking for something affordable. Oh and it takes a while to assemble so take your time.

    Price = Quality
    So far pleased with the result. I had trouble with the particle board stripping and nicking. And the plastic hardware made some areas uneven and hard to screw in. Took about 2 hours to manually put it together. (No power tools) I would definitely consider getting the whole set.

    Needs better protection for shipping.
    Slightly beat up from shipping. There is scratches drawers and side of the dresser due to the shipping. Also didn't appreciate fedex delivery as they will never leave the packages due to our dogs being in an invisible fence. Never have those problems with UPS and our package came 2 days later than expected because of it.

    Exactly what you think it will be
    I was wary when reading the reviews - some people think its great and some don't. I will say it was one of the heaviest boxes I have gotten delivered. That being said I thought that the building of it was very easy. I had two people carry it in but I built it myself in around 2 hours (and if you had another person helping make the drawers it would have been faster. This product is significantly cheaper than other dressers and I am very happy with it. Also a tip - the handles are what make it look cheaper so I got new handles from Amazon for 15 dollars that are gold with 3.75" hand pulls and now it looks super nice! I recommend this product.
