Walker Edison Sloane 6-Drawer Groove Handle Solid Wood Dresser, 52 Inch, Caramel

I was judging people in the reviews being like “it took me forever”. Like of course its gonna take you forever? I judge me now. I started from 11 am and finished it at around 4 pm. No mistakes, no backtracking. That was just me taking my time, trying to stay organized and lifting it all by myself. BUT. She is gorgeous. Everything is solid except for the part that leans against the wall. And the bottom of the drawers. The rest is solid. No weird odor either that usually comes with boxed up furniture. A worthy investment of five hours from my weekend! You do need a hammer and screwdriver.

A LOT of the reviews stated how tough this was to put together, and it definitely took a few hours and there was A TON pieces and all of them use a screwdriver, so it was tiring but the instructions were pretty clear and the end result is stunning! It would have been easier with two people, but was possible with 1 person.

This is not my first piece of furniture. I’ve assembled plenty of IKEA pieces and other Amazon brands with dismal instructions, but this was the absolute worst piece of furniture I’ve ever assembled. I would return it if it wouldn’t be a nightmare to take apart and send back. CONs: It is a pain to put together. The dowels are brittle and crumble apart. The screw heads notches too wide and low to grip a phillips screwdriver well. Incredibly brittle wood. The wood is not finished on all outside surfaces. The top piece split when I was putting it on, but at least I was able to glue and clamp the spot and it’s towards the back end. PROs: It does look nice once you finish. Instructions are not the worst, but could be better. Most pieces were labeled but not all. And at least the holes mostly lined up. ADVICE: I managed to do this myself, but I regret it. Assemble this with two people to make your life easier. I do not recommend using a drill on this for fear of the wood splitting. I used a small ratcheting hand tool to go faster. Similarly it would be better to use a rubber mallet to tap the dowels in than a hammer. Also might be good to have wood glue around to glue pieces together to strengthen screws and dowels, help reinforce cracks, and fix any splits as you go.

It’s a pine dresser. Took a few hours to put together cause there’s just a lot of components to connect. It looks relatively nice but unfortunately came with several scratches on the drawer faces and on the top. It’s solid wood, albeit very soft pine, and that’s nice. I’m adding different hardware to change the look a bit. I attached photos of the scratches.

a little time consuming to assemble. The instructions were clear, and all parts and fasteners provided. All fit together nicely. simple wood-on-wood guides, work OK. Perfect fit and sufficient capacity for small bedroom space.

I build cabinetry by trade and heavily considered building my own furniture after a terrible experience with Jeromes. I came to amazon on a last ditch effort and found the Walker Edison pieces. I am surprised by the quality pushed out for the price they are pushing it. I bought the walnut finished dresser and two night stands that match. I wood glued everything when I assembled it and let me tell you, this is a solid piece. I spent way less money than I would have in time to build the same thing including finish and everything else. 10/10 would purchase again and I am going to be looking into more pieces from this company for other areas of the home. Great furniture, real solid pine wood. Rare to find real wood at this price. Buy it, spend the time assembling it. It's worth it.

I was initially scared to purchase this because of the reviews related to assembly. HOWEVER, after buying and putting together I have to say the issue is likely with the people writing the reviews and not the product. I laid everything out on the floor and spent my time assembling it the night it was delivered and there were absolutely zero issues doing so. I would recommend installing screws by hand, and if you use a drill to only START the thread with them because you can easily overtighten which could damage the wood. Again, this is not an issue at all if you use a hand tool and assemble the way the instructions indicate. The wood is very pretty and all is solid after assembly, very glad I decided to just give it a go.

I’m pleasantly surprised at the quality of this dresser. I was concerned given some reviews but it’s a solid piece with secure attachment points. I built this alone over maybe 3 hours (but also took breaks to make dinner) and the only “hard” part was getting the legs screwed on because the bolt was so substantial and fit snugly. There are some little dings here and there and the drawer pull “lock” is a bit weird but overall I’m really please for the cost of this. Now looking to see if there are any matching nightstands from the same company
