Venture Horizon 6 Drawer Chest - Black

Looks good. If you're abhorrent to particle board or MDF, then you may want to reconsider. We bought two of these for our 6 & 3 year old daughters. So will more then likely be gone anyways by 10 years as they decide on their own styles.As for assembly, glue the dowels into the top first. We used Gorilla Wood Glue instead if what was provided. As that sets, assemble the sides/frame and also the feet/slides. (They have you putting those on at the end. It would have been a pain if I tried the directions way.) Put glue on the ends of the dowels, flip the frame upside down and set on to the upside-down top and let sit while putting the drawers together. Rest of the directions as in order.Save the box as you can set the dresser face down on it to assemble the back.BE FOREWARNED! Do NOT lose parts. We didn't, but noticed there are no extras included unlike alot of other RTA furniture.

This is an attractive but VERY basic unit. Everything fits properly but the drawers don't slide easily, it's not very sturdy, there are no built in stops so if you're not careful the drawer opens all the way and can fall out, the drawer handles are plastic. But look, this is half the price of a solider unit and if you want to save money and it serves your purpose it might do the job very nicely. For my part I have to say that if I had to do it again I'd invest the cash for something a little better.

if you study the picture instructions, you can put together. use wood glue to reinforce drawer bottoms. looks nice when completed. no parts were damaged on arrival due to good packing. The handles are plastic but if you aren't using constantly, they will hold up. pulls are 1 1/2 inch if the need to be replaced

I was a little worried, because I saw a lot of negative reviews on quality, but I am glad I gave it a chance! If you spend $150 on a dresser, you shouldn't expect a solid oak, high quality product or something really fancy.It is fairly sturdy & will definitely serve its purpose. I would prefer the drawers actually have rails, but it works fine as is. I would suggest putting some glue in the slats where the bottom portion of the drawer clips in. One of them popped out while I was adding clothes. It popped back in just fine, but it would probably be best to glue those in to begin with.

This is a pretty decent model for a build it yourself kit-- good price point, looks very nice, pretty easy construction, sturdy once put together and has a nice finish. However a few things--the top arrived with a dent in it. Good thing, however--I contacted the company and they quickly responded with sending a replacement-so thumbs up on customer service. The handles are plastic--not the strongest part but can live with them (am sure we could find replacements if we wanted, but don't need to). Biggest complaint is that the drawers do not have any stops, to prevent them from being pulled all of the way out. I actually made and attached some wood pieces (metal plates are also easily found at hardware stores) as stops. A bit of work but worth the effort. Overall pretty happy with this unit for the price.

So assembly is cake, if you’re used to flat pack furniture. The dresser is about as sturdy as flat pack furniture can be, BUTThis is NOT a wooden dresser. It is 100% composite board at varying thicknesses.There are not drawer slides! Instead, the drawers simply sit on a small composite ledge. (Personally I don’t mind this, extra quiet for a nursery)The handles are plastic. Like Barbie dream house plastic (again didn’t mind, just swapped them out for metal pulls.Personally I think the appropriate price rang would’ve been like $75-80.All in all, I’d say look for better quality for the price elsewhere but not bad in a pinch.

I love it for the price..its beautiful and exactly what I needed and it arrived in perfect condition..the knobs are plastic but they can be replaced and it is sturdy and if put together correctly it should withstand every day wear and tear. Im quite pleased with this piece of furniture.

I bought this for my son when we moved in to a new home to match the other furniture. Within a week, the cheap plastic handles were already falling off. It’s made of particle board and sways when you touch it. Easy to assemble, but doesn’t seem to stay together.
