This is a nice chest of drawers. As other reviewers mentioned there are nicks and scratches on the finish. The paint is very thin so you can see the wood through. Like a white wash. I like it. The drawers are not soft closing but they are on rollers. It took about 40 minutes to assemble. My husband is pretty handy, and it was straightforward. It was well packed but I think the nicks in the finish happened during the manufacturing, so a bit lacking on quality control. Ultimately for the price, I am very happy. We bought two to use as oversized nightstands and are doing away with the dresser in our bedroom. We will be upgrading the knobs.
