Flimsy, Bad Wood Jan 20, 2007
By J
"J & C"
Overall a poor piece of furniture.
The exposed wood is as it appears: very nice. Our cherry finish matched the cherry finish of our crib (a Da Vinci product as well, and one I'm very pleased with).
However, buyer beware. This piece of furniture contains lots of particle board and cheap pine. So not only will you have a difficult time putting it together, you might not get it put together at all. The pieces of wood we received for the drawers are terrible--black spots and cracks abounded. And only two cam bolts hold in the front of the drawers, hardly enough support for these pieces. Because the holes were poorly drilled and the cam locks were bad, I couldn't get two of the three drawers properly assembled. I had to use wood glue just to attach the front. I shouldn't have to do that for $250+.

Very bad quality for dresser Apr 24, 2007
By Babybuyer We bought this dresser because it matched the crib. The shelves are made of cheap wood and broke apart after 2 mo use. The particle board wood side split down the middle and the front panel came apart from one of the shelves. Terrible quality. Would not buy this brand/product again!!!

Cheap product & very, very bad service Mar 12, 2007
By Irritated Guy I would urge Amazon not to sell this product any longer. Customer service is awful. Our dresser arrived with NO hardware. I had to send six emails over 2 weeks to get the hardware sent to us. (Even after I pdf'd and emailed the seller the instruction sheet, with a note indicating that ALL listed hardware was missing, they were not satisfied and kept asking for more information. It was unbelievably irritating, and they were curt and never apologized.) Also, the dresser arrived in a filthy, old, dented and torn box. The pieces were completely covered in this weird, sticky dust. I had to clean each piece individually, which took more than an hour.
We have the matching crib, which was relatively easy to assemble and is sturdy and attractive. The dresser is cheap and flimsy, and much of it--including the side panels--is made of very low budget particle board with ugly fake wood grain finish. It looks really cheap and ugly. For $249, go to your local discount furniture store.
Amazon: please stop selling this product. I've been a customer for years, and this left a bad taste in my mouth.

Time consuming assembly & not lasting Apr 16, 2008
By R. Goldstein Only consider this item if you have several hours to devote to assembly. (That's one huge advantage to hand-me-down's-- they are already put together!)
We are having problems with the drawer fronts. We consider ourselves pretty good at furniture assembly-- I've worked in a furniture store assembling floor models and my husband is an architect-- so I think we assembled this correctly but it is not staying put together. So far two of the three drawer fronts have come off while using the product. The first came off after 6 months of use and the second after 10 months. The second time, when the right side of the drawer front pulled away from the drawer, a piece of the left side of the drawer cracked off in response. Because the hardware is fault we've had to use glue to try to put this back together. I doubt it will hold for very long.

No problems here Apr 13, 2008
By A. Jastremski I've had this changing table for over a year and love it. My husband and I put it together and it only took maybe an hour. It doesn't feel flimsy and it looks great. I foster babies/children and some are larger than newborns so, we have been putting our furniture (we have matching crib and just bought a second changer)through the ringer and really like them.
I am going to mention a couple of things: First, the directions could be a little better; the parts don't have the labels on them so you don't know if they are part a or b just by looking at the part, but it isn't hard to figure out-just compare the part to the picture that says what all of the parts are. Second, in response to some of the wood quality complaints; Yes, the wood for the drawers are a soft wood, but the directions specifically say NOT to use power drills or you can strip the wood. Use a screwdriver and had no issues with cracks or stripping the wood etc., It was surprisingly easy. The result was a sturdy changing table.
