Cottage Road Dresser - Sauder

The dresser was harder to assemble than it should have been due to parts not labeled or labels very difficult to find and to read. Instruction manual is not written well either. 36 steps to complete. One drawer has a scratched paint spot. Finished product looks nice, though, and I'm happy with it.

This is my second piece from the Cottage Road collection. I've been a Sauder customer since the mid 2000's but only recently started purchasing direct and this is my first review. I don't have anything negative to say. I was a little worried about the right middle drawer I had to wiggle it open for a day or two but as expected it just needed a little breaking in, I didn't have to go back to readjust the support brackets or anything. I love the drawer safety feature. Packaging was excellent and every part arrived without any scratches, dings or dents.

Came to house in a lot of parts and assembly took a while, definitely a two person job. All in all, a very nice piece of furniture. One drawer does sinks low and prevents bottom drawer from closing, but that could be assembly error.

Very happy with the dresser and armoire. Purchased for the nursery 4 years ago. Unfortunately during our latest move, the dresser got damaged (worst movers ever). I reached out to Sauders and they generously send me replacement parts for the damaged cams. They also provided a copy of the instruction manual. Would definitely purchased from Sauder's again.

For those stating the drawers do not line up, that’s true. BUT, you have to take TIME to adjust the drawer glides & they will align perfectly. Do not expect them to align on the first go-round. If you don’t put forth the effort & time, then yes you’ll be disappointed with the finished product. Pros: Solid, beautiful, perfect shade of white. Not off-white, yet not bright, blinding white either. Drawer glides are nicer than others I’ve had. The top is not real wood. But it’s beautiful & easy to clean. You can’t tell it’s fake until you touch it. I find this to be a pro due to ease of cleaning / maintaining. Directions were very clear. Cons: Very time consuming to put together. Aligning the drawers is time-consuming but necessary. Set aside at least 2-3 hours. Use a power tool to speed it up. Backing is very thin cardboard-esque but functional. This could be improved. One knob screw would not tighten so on the hunt for a new screw. Extras were not provided. Not a deal breaker, just a small nuisance. OVERALL: I would order again! Definitely recommend to anyone willing to take their time. If you rush it & are unhappy with finished product, then that’s on you.

Large spacious dresser with very clear and easy instructions! I do wish the top was a little more real wood lookin, but over all it's quite nice. Will be a wonderful dresser for our baby's nursery.

This is a great-looking furniture set; assembling it wasn't too difficult. My husband and son completed the dresser and nightstand in one afternoon.

Packaged well Labeled well Directions were clear But the drawers are not even

Sturdy and beautiful! We purchased two (we placed one to each side of our bed instead of a night table!) LOVE THEM!!

Love the look

We have this in our sons room and it's been a fantastic dresser. Sturdy, the drawers open nicely, and I love the look of it! It did take a bit to build, but overall very happy with our purchase of this dresser!

Quality is great, drawers are larger than expected. Easy to assemble.

I bought this product and the matching bed side tables about a year ago, and the bed side table came without all the materials so I had to throw it out :(. I was trying to be optimistic about the dresser, and assembled the WHOLE thing except the two bottom drawers wont go in at all. Ive had numerous people try and they end up not allowing the drawers above to open, or they get stuck. So right now I have one bottom drawer in (which is broken due to how stuck it is) and no bottom drawer on the other side. So disappointing that I spent hundreds of dollars on this as a young adult (which took much of my pay check) and its not even usable.

Not too difficult to assemble and good material

I'm going to use it for kitchen storage. It was a little hard to assemble but in the end we received a sturdy piece of furniture.

Just finished putting my dresser together. The shelves line up and slide on their runners much better than most other buildable furniture I have dealt with is. Will defiantly use Sauder products again!

Matches the wardrobe perfectly and looks great!

We bought this for our bedroom along with the matching 4 drawer dresser and night stand. This is sturdy, well made furniture. It looks fantastic and I was really impressed with the quality. While it took several hours to put together, everything lined up and went together as expected. The directions were clear and gave me an occasional laugh. The parts were marked clearly, which made assembly easy. I would not hesitate to recommend this furniture to anyone.

We were extremely happy with the quality of this product. In many ways it is better quality than we have found in furniture stores! And to top it off - Made in America. We have owned several Sauder products over the years and never disappointed!

Love this dresser and how easy it was to assemble!
