The quality of the wood is weak. We followed the instructions correctly. This is not the first time we assembled something. We thought only for 1 side but all 10 sides cracked. I wish I can get my money back but I have to keep it as we just moved house and we need it badly as Christmas is coming and our stuff is everywhere. I just hope it will last and will not give up on us. We need to slowly and gently open and close the drawers which is supposed to be the last thing we should be worrying about. Also, we chose Wayfair over any other brand because of quality. But this chest drawer is a let down.
