Customer Reviews
real wood
Looks very nice and drawer went together well, but...as far as fitting it into the tower it did not go as well. I could not use the markings on the side and learned that it was better to use the up/down holes rather than the fixed or side to side holes. It took quite a bit of manuvering to get them to fit. MAKE SURE YOUR TOWER IS SQUARE! One of my towers was not and I really had to jimmy-rig the drawer to get it to fit (shims, pulling and pushing the whole 9 yards). Looks really nice once everything got put together and I like the look so much better than laminate or those crappy wire shelves.
Work well for their stated purpose
I have four of these drawers and they were a bit challenging to put together because the slot on the drawer front didn't seem to line up where it attaches to the composite bottom. My teenage son saw me struggling with it, took over and had them all assembled in minutes. No alterations were necessary. I thought the hardware was quite good, but these drawers won't work if you're planning on storing heavy items like books, photo alblums, magazines or tools. They work great for underwear and socks.
Quality of finish could be better, but I wasn't expecting a high-end quality piece of bedroom furniture. If you want that quality, then hire a carpenter for a custom fit and finish. The total shipped price for one drawer is pretty much in line with other sites.
Watch out for poor quality
I have these drawers all over my house as I did 5 closets from John Louis Home's materials. Some drawers are fine when it comes to fit and finish, but some have drawer bottom channels cut at locations on the panels that are just off by an eight of an inch or so, just enough to prevent you from putting the drawer together. Approximately three of the twelve drawers I installed were this way. I ended up drilling my own holes in order to line the channels up.
The wood facing is occasionally rough with whorls plugged with putty that does not stain and blend well with the rest of the wood.
The slides are of mediocre quality and bind easily. The drawer operation is very dependent upon the spacing between the tower sides, but this is hard to keep at the ideal dimension (24 1/8") as the tower sides are often warped.
Overall the drawer feel is lightweight and cheap. But I guess you get what you pay for. Chinese products will always be of inferior quality.
