Tvilum Austin 8-Drawer Dresser, White

I'm a middle-aged woman with very weak wrists, but I was able to assemble the dresser by myself. It turned out perfect. It matches the bookcase/cabinet that I bought from another company perfectly. It's very modern and looks cute in my office. That being said, it is small. The depth is pretty shallow, and, as another reviewer stated, the drawers only come out about halfway. Material-wise, you're getting engineered wood of various types and thicknesses. You have to be very careful and follow all of the instructions. If you rush or get sloppy, you might mess it up. This took me several hours to put together by myself. Don't use a drill or you run the risk of damaging the pieces. I used a small battery-operated drill on another project and did split wood, so I took it to heart this time. The instructions call for two men, but I'm just one 5'1" female. If you make space and plan out your steps, you can do it. The screws and other parts were all in one bag, so the first thing I did was get an organizer tray and sort them all out. I was worried that I might have to go to the hardware store, but that wasn't necessary. My package did not involve any glue. I simply followed instructions. They might be a little confusing, but if you have all of your parts sorted correctly, you should be able to figure it out. Some of the pieces, like the drawer sides, were not labeled the way the directions described them, so just sort out the pieces. You should have 8 of each. I got worried before I realized I had mixed them up. The numbers on the pieces were not indicative of what they were. I think they were just time stamps and maybe departments or lots or something. So, I thought they'd given me the wrong thing. I sat back down and went through them and found they were all there. Patience is key. Take your time, and it should work out fine. There were challenges like bending over to put 70 tiny finishing nails in the back side of the cabinet and keeping the thin pieces from falling through in the process, so just take five and come back to it. I had trouble getting a couple of the screws to go through the drawer and the rails on the dresser, so I used a nail to make sure I had the holes lined up. I also used a flash light to see if I had the screw hole positioned over the metal rail hole. I used a regular size Phillip's head screwdriver, a flathead screwdriver, the small hex tool included, and a hammer to put the pieces together. The instructions calls for an awl. Most hole were pre-drilled, but some of them were not. This is probably where they intended for you to use an awl. I just started the hole the same way I start holes on the wall. I tapped a nail at that point until it had a good enough depth where a screw wouldn't slip out of it. It is a challenge to put together simply because there are so many drawers, but it wasn't that hard, and I had extra screws left over. I'm pretty sure I used all that were called for, so these were just extras in the bag. Good luck!

If it were possible I would give this product 0 stars because it was so badly made and the companies are extremely unhelpful. I would like to say that this product is not only defective it is not easy to assemble at all. After I tried to assemble this product 4 of my friends did also and were unable to do so. I attempted to return the item and the company, basically told me that I was inept at putting together a few pieces of wood. They were so unhelpful and rude that they would not even help me properly assemble the it.The tracks are crooked and the holes where the tracks go are so badly skewed that the other pieces of the desk cannot be put on correctly. The holes where the pieces go do not actually allow for the wooden pieces to push in and are flimsy and of low quality.After putting together many pieces of furniture on my own I cannot believe the difficulty I had with this piece. Since the customer service individuals basically insulted my sister and i (ee each calles separatelh) that we did not know how to assemble this piece i recommend never purchasing from this company again. They will not help you! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT OR THIS COMPANY FOR ANY FURTHER PURCHASES!

This dresser is a breakthrough for me. As someone that's settling into their personal space for the first time, 8 drawers are way too generous lol. But you can put anything in these drawers. For 8 of them, I assumed they'd be pretty small but it's not at all. It's literally two full dressers in one so this is a real bang for your buck.My dimensions: Overall dresser: 56.4 in. length × 17.3 in. width × 33.5 in. height. Drawer dimensions: 26.2 in. length × 14.2 in. width × 6.2 in. depth/height.Although the plastic add-on legs are cheap-looking, it's hidden underneath the dresser to give it a "float-like look". Still very stunning! The handles have a metal-like feel and finish but it's plastic. Still looks very modern and sleek! It took me 2 days to assemble because I didn't have all the tools. Be sure to have a hammer, different sizes of the Phillip screwdriver, and also a lot of patience lol. There aren't written instructions in the manual, just pictures of the step-by-step process. They aren't the most detailed but it's not impossible to put together. It helps to have someone else help you out!
