Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)All I needed were some temporary (in terms of not having to last more than 1-2 years) nightstands so I found these cheap ones. They came packaged very well, so no issues there. I didn't have any problems assembling them, although I can see how someone who isn't mechanically inclined may have some problems getting the side panels to fit into their slots.
It's a pretty whimpy nightstand. It's very light but I'm not concerned about it falling apart any time soon. I'm a structural engineer and I think it would hold up fine for normal nightstand use (e.g., lamp, tissue box, clock radio, etc.). Although, I do doubt that the thin shelves would hold up well if you were to stack it full of books or other heavy items.
Overall, I think it's a great deal considering how cheap it is. But here is why I'm giving it only 1 stars. The outgassing is HORRIBLE! I even left it unassembled in my garage for 2 weeks thinking it would not give off any more chemical fumes/odors, but when I assembled them and brought it upstairs, if you sleep within 2-3 feet of these things, it will give you a headache or keep you up because it's so strong of an odor. I can't imagine how unhealthy it must be.
It's been at least 4 weeks now and these things are still outgassing. For the price, I can only imagine that they are made in China and if they are still outgassing this much after this much time, I'm now concerned about what type of toxic chemicals my wife and I are breathing in. So I simple threw them out. I thought about donating them to Goodwill but I personally think they are a health hazard.
I've used oil-base paints and other high-volatile paints before, but they usually will outgass within a few days and be done with it. Not these. These are spewing toxic fumes into the air inside my house.
In the trash they go...
