I really like this dresser. The solid wood construction makes this dresser a bit sturdier than composite wood products. These days it's hard to find affordable solid wood products like this one.
The dresser was relatively easy to assemble, but you can't use power tools because the wood would break and splinter. It took a few hours to put it together.
The color is darker than the picture, but it's not black. It matches the rest of our espresso furniture. The drawers are not very deep, so I chose the 4-drawer version instead of the 3-drawer version. Overall, I liked the dresser enough to buy a second one.
