I love this chest ! (along with the rest if the "cookie" collection ... but I have to say, the drawers are a but of a pain to assemble. I was basically only using a screwdriver and hammer to get the job done (as suggested) and the front of the drawers kept feeling loose/wobbly. my friend came over and quickly tightened all the screws with a power tool and he 100% fixed the problem in less than 10 minutes (on both my chest and dresser) I would suggest having a power tool on hand to make your life easier. the instructions say not to, but it would have been SO much easier !
