   Montage hat gedauert, war aber gut erklärt – und das Produkt ist wirklich schön anzusehen und praktisch.
   Nur roch das Möbelstück eine Weile streng, und die Platten waren auch fleckig (fettig?) Nach Behandlung mit Möbelpolitur aber nun ein Schmuckstück.

   We purchased this unit to add some storage to our home office. It looks great and feels solid once assembled, and the 7 drawers offer quite a bit of extra space to stash odds and ends.

   I would describe the quality of materials as somewhat below IKEA, though the assembly instructions were top-notch and the parts were labeled.

   Assembly itself took a while, mostly due to having to assemble all 7 drawer units. I would recommend procuring a drill with a screwdriver attachment to speed things up, as well as some super glue to help reinforce the cross-brace piece in the back. The toughest step was the one where you join the left and right surfaces together, as the pieces of wood used to do so are thin and cheap with no margin of error for a single-person assembly. I ended up cracking the wood and saved this step with copious super glue.

   I ordered 2 sets of these Drawers. Everything was easy to assemble. 1 set of of drawers had missing caster wheels. I sent a message to Devaise’s Facebook page regarding the missing caster wheels. I got asked to circle ⭕ the caster wheels & take a photo from the manual that came in the box. They asked for my Amazon order number & address. Within 7 days I received the caster wheels direct from the Chinese supplier with TNT tracking number (FedEx package) 😁👍

   The build on this was somewhat tedious, so be prepared for it to take a minute, however, the instructions are clear if you read them. Absolutely phenomenal quality when compared to the look-alike brand very stable fits perfectly where we wanted it. Thick quality construction excellent purchase highly recommend.

   I bought 2 of these despite swearing I would never buy self assembly furniture again, my main problem with them being if you buy it, assemble it and something is wrong, you then have to take the whole thing apart to ship back, so it’s a good 2-4 hours work for nothing but these seem the perfect size for my needs so I bought them.

   the first one I put together fine, although it took nearly 3 hours to do.

   The 2nd one, I had the experience of putting the first together, so I probably could have done it in about an hour, hour and a half.

   But then the last drawer, the holes and the screws/ dowels on one part just didn’t line up. Measuring the holes, etc it looks like the holes on one part would not line up with it’s component.

   So I try calling but the company is closed. But from past experience (remember how I said I would never buy one of these again) that they’d just tell me to take the WHOLE darned thing apart and ship it back to them when all I needed was the replacement pieces for the one drawer.

   So I said “screw it” and drilled the holes myself according to how the fit should be (pictures attached) hoping that would work, but as you can see from the final picture, it didn’t. That drawer just won’t go in properly. I’m guessing because not just the holes but the screw insertion/ dowel insertion holes were also somewhat off. And frankly, getting the drawers on this one together was very techy work, I suspect I just ended up with a badly produced one.

   Which means I hit a 1 out of 2 ratio for getting a poorly made product from this company, so will NEVER buy anything they make again. I basically took a huge loss on putting these together because each one ended up taking over two hours when without the issues it should have taken one, and the 2nd unit the last drawer doesn’t even fit.

   edit; literally minutes after the initial review, I figured out the problem (shown in the last (1st?) pictures; the front drawer part, the cut of the bottom of the shelf wood is supposed to slot into, was cut at an angle and not straight. So the holes are right, it’s the angle means the bottom shelf “wood” doesn’t fit in properly. I kinda forced it in so now the drawer closes neatly, but it’s a total crapped up, unusable drawer now.

   if I could do 0 stars I would.

   This was purchased as a gift for a cosmetology teen who wanted a drawer cabinet for storing make up and hair supplies. It’s excellent! The drawers work smoothly and the rolling wheels can be locked in place. The drawers are not as deep as the front panel, they’re shallow but for storing make up/small items/scrap booking papers the depth is ideal. Plenty of storage and organization with this cabinet!

   Regarding assembly: this took some time (a little over two hours – if we were to assembly a second one it would take half the time), but it wasn’t difficult. A mom, an aunt (both of whom talked and laughed the whole time) and a teen girl (along with an inquisitive dog that kept walking over all the pieces) assembled the cabinet with no errors. The instructions are a little confusing in spots, so we did have to figure some things out on our own, and once we figured out how the pictures were designed it got easier as we went along. Sorting all the parts into sections and piles saved a lot of time in the long run. There’s a lot of wooden pegs, and an interesting connection involving a round wheel-like disc and pin that fits into the discs and locks into place. Once we figured out how that wheel + pin worked we announced it was a genius design and moved pretty quickly whenever assembly required those parts.

   It was definitely helpful to have more than one person during assembly, to hold some of the parts in place while they were being assembled – however – I honestly believe that someone could assemble this on their own.

   More than half way through we worried that the cabinet would be unsteady and flimsy; however once everything was assembled and the stabilizing clips were fit into the back the cabinet was sturdy and seems a lot nicer than the price would indicate! Overall a very good purchase, looks great, works great, and the price was very reasonable. Highly recommend!

   Je suis ravie de cette commande. J’ai acheté 2 tours. Elles ont été très simples à monter, si tous les meubles pouvaient être aussi simples, ce serait bien! Toutes les pièces sont numérotées. Les trous sont bien faits, aux bons endroits.
   Ils sont très bien pensés. Les fonds de tiroirs et fond du meuble très bien maintenus.
   Les tiroirs coulissent parfaitement, se placent bien parallèles dans le meuble.

   J’ai passé cette commande le 31 Mai, livraison prévue entre le 1er juillet et le 4, je l’ai reçue le 5 juin!

   Je n’ai qu’un point négatif à soulever, une des planches d’un tiroir était abîmée, voir la photo. Mais cela n’a pas gêné au montage du meuble et n’a pas fragilisé la tenue du fond du tiroir et ça ne se voit absolument pas. J’avais enlevé une étoile au début pour ce défaut mais à la réflexion, le meuble n’en est pas affecté, donc je lui laisse 5*.
   Oh et un autre mini point négatif, il y a un autocollant sur le dessus du meuble et quand on l’enlève il laisse des traces de colle mais avec de l’acétone végétale, ça part sans abîmer la couleur du meuble.

   Je recommande vraiment l’achat de ses tours de tiroirs. Je partais avec un léger à priori car meubles en “compressé” mais franchement ils sont top. La simplicité du design fait qu’ils passent partout sans dénoter.

   I always have my doubts with self assembly, but I love building things. The process to build is very clearly laid out in the instructions. It takes a while to build, but everything was nice, square and sturdy. I really like that the roller mechanism for the drawers is on the bottom so that it provides extra stability for the drawer bottom. The drawers aren’t quite as deep as you’d think, but suit my crafting needs well. Will buy another next time it’s on sale.
