Prepac Sonoma 2-Drawer Night Stand, Black

Given the price, I find these nightstands to be an excellent value. They are solid, well made, and very straightforward to assemble. Having purchased an awful lot of "you assemble it" furniture, and online goods generally, let me first say that I was astounded at the packaging. I recently purchased an unrelated item and had to do two returns before getting an undamaged product! These nightstands were beautifully packaged with the appropriate strength cardboard and internal packing materials. That may sound like a different issue than the nightstands themselves, but it made all the difference in what I found when I examined the pieces. I will say that one of the boxes was missing some dowels and there was a small nick on a piece that had to have occurred prior to boxing. I called the number provided and was pleasantly told that the missing and replacement pieces would be shipped immediately. I can't recall the last time I experienced such exceptional service. Having received the parts and completed assembly, I have to say that these are fabulous nightstands. The drawers are generous and slide nicely, the finish is great. If I could change one thing with an of this type of furniture it would be to design and different kind of backing than one you nail on. I don't know what that would be be, but I really don't like having to nail into the narrow piece of product. Nonetheless, I will highly recommend PrePac from here on out.

Great product, don’t get me wrong but nothing was labeled, so trying to follow the instructions was hard and it wasn’t to scale. The only thing we found was a L and R stamp on a couple pieces.

Le meuble est de bonne qualité facile a monter et solide

Great quality. Well functioning and sturdy. Followed the instructions without difficulty (just be sure to set aside enough time and follow pgotos closely). I used a hammer, screwdriver, and drill. If I didnt have my drill it would have a bit more difficult as you may imagine. Also I would note TWO options came in the box for the bottom look of the table (you may notice 2 different looks in other folks review photos). I really liked that as well.

These nightstands are beautiful and seemed to be exactly what I was looking for, but they leave much to be desired. The units themselves are heavy and very sturdy once they are put together and I'm sure they would stand the test of time... if not for the extremely delicate finish. It scratches easily, it will likely come to you scratched and with pieces flaking off here and there. The included marker does a good job of hiding small imperfections like this, but I can only pray that it holds up to regular use in my bedroom. The majority of my house is filled with ikea furniture; i am no stranger to assembly or unclear directions. Still, these took me a total of three hours to assemble together. Paying very careful attention got me most of the way there, but there is a specific instruction for constructing the front of the frame that shows a piece facing frontways when it should have been the other way around. This wouldn't be a major problem, except for the fact that this particular piece uses dowels, so it is impossible to remove it from the unit once you've realized your error. I had to make good use of the black marker to only-sort-of camouflage the long tan line on the very front of this nightstand. I was even particularly careful to read the instructions at this point because I wanted to avoid this exact problem, so you can imagine my disappointment. There are also several points where you can see the unfinished boards when you look at the unit from an angle. You will probably want to use the markers there as well. I plan to keep them just because they do still look very nice, and I can only imagine how much of a headache it would be to disassemble and return them. I'll update this review after I've had them for a few months.
