Vida Designs Denver 5 Drawer Chest of Drawers Grey – Modern Wooden Storage Unit

This is a cheap set of drawers, however, at the price it represents true value for money. Contrary to another review I find that it’s sturdy and robust. It went together well without problems, the instructions are clear and it was easy to build. The drawers open and close smoothly. The base of the drawers are a little thin and made of hardboard, however there is a central brace for added strength. All in all better than expected at the price.

I’ve only given this unit a 1 star because a 0 wasn’t possible. Yes guys I know it’s cheap but it is absolute filth to market what is essentially mashed up chipboard with a thin white veneer as ‘furniture’. None of it fit together properly, it splintered and chipped everywhere with minimal pressure, the bottom back support snapped when putting the sides on, the outer shell had gaps all over so the drawers then wouldn’t sit on the runners, the drawers themselves either sat in wonky or didn’t sit in at all. Without the drawers in it swayed with minimal touch and I have no doubt that it wouldn’t take a decent amount of things within them if it even went together well. If you can afford even a £50 boost for something better then do it. I’ve been using flat pack for close to 20 years and not one piece in that whole time has been as alarmingly bad as this. There was satisfaction in smashing the entire lot into the bin though, so perhaps the one star is warranted for that alone. AVOID.

Looks fantastic once built, easy to build once great depth of drawers.you get hang of it.... drawers ioeb and close easily for an almost flat closure ....lovely glossy finish in this he paint work... great value for the price and the drawers are deeper Han then look

Very easy to construct and looks great when together. A little wobbly but nothing filling the drawers wont fix. Was disappointed by the amount that it can fit. Due to the cross beams above the drawer the depth is very limited. I can fit 1 and a bit double bed sheet sets in a drawer just about.

I saw these being advertised elsewhere on sale, so checked Amazon and they were cheaper than the sale price at the other store. The product was delivered on time. It’s relatively simple to build. The quality is fine. It doesn’t look like the pictures. The join of veneer/paint on the drawers isn’t the best and there were small chips on the frame and slight rough edges. However, I had already built it at this stage. The drawers themselves are deceptive. In comparison to the Ikea Malm series the drawers themselves are very shallow. You won’t be able to store that much. As I have said it’s ok, but when it’s time to replace them I’ll look for something of better finish and deeper drawers for storage.

Arrived quickly and well packaged, no damage at all. The drawers are very sturdy and I love the colour. They are very well made and have a wooden bar to keep the drawers from sagging on each drawer, I ordered 3 pieces from this range and they are all great. Better than expected for the price (despite my effort at pics they are exactly the same colour)

Love it came earlier than expected easy instructions I put it together easy and looks fab in my dressing room draws are quite spacious I want another one so will be ordering soon worth the money.

Oh how I wish I could leave a 0 star review. This is by far the worst piece of furniture I have ever had the displeasure of assembling. Now I’m no Bob the Builder, but I often credit myself with the ability to build anything with ease, as long as there are clear instructions. I have built bookshelves, beds, wardrobes in record time. In fact, I find it enjoyable. This godforsaken dresser, however, could not possibly be any worse to assemble. Where should I start? The fact that half of the panels are incorrectly numbered? Or no, maybe the fact that the material is so flimsy that if a fruit fly lands on it, it might dent. Certainly can’t leave out the god awful instructions that can’t even be considered instructions given the lack of instructing! It’s as if the manufacturer didn’t realise they were supposed to be making an instruction manual, not a children’s book with barely any pictures and no writing. In fact, that would be a disservice to children’s books, because at least you can understand what’s going on in those even with just the pictures! Honestly, save yourself the trouble and just fork out a little extra money for something that wont collapse like a house of cards when you a leave the window open and it catches a breeze. Would make a fantastic gift for someone who finds comfort in smashing their head into the wall. Building this has the same effect.
