Prepac Astrid 6 Drawer Tall Chest, Espresso

Solid and sturdy. Made of manufactured wood and real wood drawers. The drawers are solid. Easy assembly.

I purchased it for a small bedroom space, and it has turned out to be a solid and functional choice — especially for the price point. Assembly & Labeling: The assembly process was straightforward. All the pieces were clearly labeled, which made following the instructions much easier. I’ve put together a lot of flat-pack furniture before, and this one didn’t give me any trouble. You’ll definitely want a screwdriver or drill on hand — and a little patience. Took about 90 minutes solo. Drawer Depth & Storage Capacity: Each of the six drawers offers decent depth. They’re not super deep — I’d estimate about 5–6 inches of usable internal depth — but they’re well-suited for clothes, undergarments, small linens, or accessories. The vertical design makes smart use of space, and it holds more than I expected for its narrow footprint. Material & Build Quality: The dresser is made of laminated particleboard, and while the body feels decently sturdy once assembled, the drawers themselves have plastic runners and drawer bottoms. These aren’t designed to hold very heavy items — so I wouldn’t load them with books or bulky electronics. That said, for everyday clothing and bedroom storage, it functions just fine. Sturdiness & Functionality: Once put together, the frame is stable and doesn’t wobble. The drawers open and close smoothly on the plastic glides. While not heavy-duty furniture, it’s more than sturdy enough for regular bedroom use. I’d suggest anchoring it to the wall if you have kids around — it’s tall and narrow, so safety first. Overall Functionality & Design: The dresser looks sleek with a modern brown finish that matches most decor. It’s not flashy, but it’s clean and functional. Great for small apartments, guest rooms, or dorms. The knobs are basic plastic — which work fine, but you could easily replace them to elevate the look. ⸻ ✅ Pros: • Clear labeling and instructions for easy assembly • Space-saving vertical design • Surprisingly decent drawer capacity • Modern, minimalist appearance • Affordable price point ❌ Cons: • Plastic drawer runners and hardware • Not suitable for very heavy items • Basic knobs (though easily replaceable) ⸻ Final Verdict: If you’re looking for an affordable, functional dresser with good storage and a clean look, this is a great option. Just manage expectations — it’s not solid wood, but it does its job very well for the price. I’d buy it again for another room.

Very impressed with how sturdy this dresser is, especially putting it together myself. It takes a little time, just because it is pretty thorough (how it makes it so sturdy) but none of it is too hard. Just make sure you check which way you put the rails on for the drawers, the left-right and front-back. I took a long time to find a dresser on Amazon that was NOT fabric drawers and this is ALL WOOD which is why it is a little pricier than some of the other listing. I love that It isn't super wide, so it fits better in tighter spaces. It looks so good, and I am even debating getting fancier knobs for drawers to make it look even better. Just 6 knobs to elevate it more

I ordered this and was really excited when it arrived in a few days after ordering. The next day after its arrival I opened box and the very top piece was broken. I was crushed as I was eager to assemble. Everything else appeared to be intact. Contacted customer service to find that they couldn’t just replace the broken piece but I would have to reorder and return the original I received. Being almost 70 years old I was worried about having to repackage and returning with box weight over 75 lbs. To my surprise when the replacement arrives I can contact customer service and they will send someone out to repackage and ship back because of the weight. It’s a solid piece and very pretty wood. Looking forward to being able to use this piece. I purchased for use in my walk in closet. So hopefully in a few days I’ll be able to give a complete review.

Looks good and firm/solid! A lot of drawers! You definitely can put this together by yourself. I used my portable table. It took longer than the directions indicate. There is a page in the manual that wasn't correct but I figured out the step anyways. I definitely recommend! Mine did have a piece of the drawers that had a chip, so there was no paint in a spot, but the company sent a replacement part at no charge!
