Prepac Rustic Ridge Farmhouse Bedroom Nightstand with 2 Drawers and an Open Cubby, Wooden Bedside Table for Bedroom, Office, or Living Room, 16.25in x 18.75in x 24.5in, Washed White

Excellent workmanship, easy assembly, good instructions, high quality.
The quality of workmanship is excellent, and it assembles quite easily. Some folks have complained about the instructions, but I found them to be quite good and fully adequate. Based on other reviews, my first step was to start labeling the pieces with masking tape and a marker. But after about 2 pieces, I realized I was wasting my time. There was no doubt about the identity of each piece, if you look at the diagrams carefully. In fact, the one time I nearly did something wrong, I paused to study the instructions, and the details of the diagram showed the subtle differences in the hole patterns in the board, causing me to flip the piece and continue without further incident. So, just go slowly and carefully on your first one, look at the diagrams carefully until you’re sure you have the correct parts laid out in the correct orientation, and you shouldn’t have a bit of trouble.I bought two, and the second was short some of the nails used on the back cardboard. No big deal for me, but it might be aggravating for someone without 30 years of accumulated miscellaneous hardware. There were extra of those clever disk doohickeys in both of mine. All in all, I was perfectly satisfied with the contents. Note also that the packaging was excellent, and the parts did not have abraded surfaces from vibration in shipping. I found the tiniest chip in the edge of one of bottom front pieces, and simply colored it in with a dark brown sharpie, and the little white eye-catcher promptly disappeared. Note that you have a choice of bottom effects, if you don’t like the gentle arc and prefer something a little more complex. (I like the simplicity of the arc.)I’m not a big fan of particle board furniture, but I needed a temporary solution and didn’t want to spend a lot for something I might not keep for more than a couple of years. After assembling these, I find that I like them better than most of the $300+ nightstands I looked at in furniture stores. The drawer hardware is better than many of those units (some just had plastic slides). The overall value of these (looks and utility divided by cost) is incredibly high. Thus, I’m not only pleased that I gambled on these, but I’m also expecting to keep them indefinitely. When I do buy an entire new bedroom set, complete with matching nightstands, these will go into a spare room. I won’t throw them away or sell them. They’re just too nice.BTW, I was concerned about height, width, depth, drawer depth, etc., and these are just about ideal for my situation. I encourage you to take the published measurements and ensure they’ll be appropriate for your bed height, wall space, etc. The only modification I made was to drill a 1″ hole in the back of each of the shelf sections (and color the edges with that sharpie marker) in order to feed electric cords through. That was easy to do post-assembly, but you have to be careful with the drill, of course, moving it very slowly into and out of position. Cut gradually, gently through, or you may make a ragged mess. (It’s often best to cut partway through, then jump to the other side and finish. This keeps you from busting outward the last layer of material.)In summary, this nightstand is well designed, easy to assemble, and is high quality in every discernible way. It looks good, functions well, and is an outstanding value for the price. No regrets whatsoever in buying.

Nice looking piece, simple to put together
I was very skeptical about buying this item because of all the negative reviews on here. I looked at tons of other nightstands and couldn’t really find anything that even came close to this. The big selling point for me was the two drawers and the cubby-hole. The cubby-hole is perfect for my 15″ laptop and it’s part of the main reason I wanted this particular nightstand.According to the reviews on here people have stated that they have gotten beaten up and missing boards to missing screws. My experience was just the opposite. I got everything I needed and all the screws I needed with a few left over. Before I began I went over every screw to make sure I had the same amount as the instruction booklet stated. Also apparently mine was manufactured quite recently as it arrived with some sawdust from the underside of the boards. This didn’t really bother me, but I did take notice that it was made quite recently. I found that a bit refreshing as it hadn’t been sitting on some shelf in a warehouse for long. I also didn’t see any damage to the black parts of the stand. A lot of people said they end up with nicked boards. Mine seemed fine. When I finished I didn’t even bother using the scratch marker they provided.As for setting it up I thought the directions were very clear and detailed. Others have stated that it’s extremely hard to understand. I didn’t have that difficulty. In fact I was able to get the nightstand together within an hour. The drawings they provide in the booklet are your standard drafting type of images. If you’re having trouble deciphering those types of images. The best suggestion I can give you is to start with one board on the drawing, locate it in your pile, and then line up the circles on the drawing to the holes in the board. This made it very simple and a lot less frustrating when it came to piecing it together. For most screws I started them off with a screwdriver and then screwed them into place with a drill. I recommend using a drill as it does make it a bit easier and less tedious.The only thing I seemed to have a problem with is the drawers. I think I may have put them together wrong or slightly off. Although they do look correct to me. However, when I pushed them into the drawer slider the top half of the drawer fits snug against the front of the stand while the lower part of the drawer seems to be further away from the front of the nightstand. Not sure if that makes sense but it looks off if you view it from the side. You can also see some of the unpainted wood from that angle. Both drawers ended up that way and they open up on a upward slope. This is most likely my error as I was a bit tired by the time I got around to the drawers. Right now I’m not too worried about it. I can go back later and see what I did wrong, but I thought I would mention that I did seem to have a bit of an issue. When I figure out what went wrong I’ll come back and update this review. For the moment I’m giving the nightstand four stars for the drawer mishap even though it’s not really that big of a deal for me.

I was a little worried the quality wouldnt be good based on the cost – it seemed too good to be true – but I was pleasantly surprised! This is a really solid night stand with good quality materials. Easy instructions and assembly! All you need is a phillips screwdriver and a hammer

Well if you’re not used of assembling stuff. This one was tricky. As the pieces were not labelled. You really need to look at the set up before starting to make sure all the pieces are accurate. This beauty took me 2-1/2 hours but worth it. It not big and perfect for guest room
