I purchased this chest as a night stand because I couldn't find a night stand as large as I wanted for the price I wanted to pay. It took a few hours to put together but I did it and it's all I hoped it would be. Though the top drawer is a tad bit smaller the other two are quite large enough. However it's not "real" wood so if you purchase one be careful putting the screws in. All in all this item is perfect for me. I had my wife order another one so we'd have one for each side of the bed. This is an excellent buy for the $.
