Important Safety Information
To prevent serious injury or death from furniture tipping, it is crucial to secure this dresser to the wall using the included tipping restraint kit. Always follow these guidelines:
- Always install the tipping restraint kit provided with your dresser.
- Never allow children to climb or hang on drawers, doors, or shelves.
- Do not place heavy objects in top drawers.
- Ensure all drawers are closed when not in use.
WARNING: Furniture can tip over, causing serious or fatal injuries. Always use tip-over restraints.
Included Components
Your Danabrin 7 Drawer Dresser arrives largely pre-assembled. The following components are included and stored within the bottom drawers for shipping:
- 1 x Danabrin 7 Drawer Dresser (Main Unit)
- 4 x Dresser Feet
- 1 x Tipping Restraint Pack (includes strap, screws, and wall anchors)
- Hardware for attaching feet (pre-installed in feet or included in pack)
Setup and Assembly
Your dresser is designed for quick and easy setup. Only the feet require attachment.
Attaching the Feet:
- Carefully lay the dresser on its back on a soft, clean surface (e.g., a rug or blanket) to prevent scratching. It is recommended to have at least two people for this step due to the dresser's weight (170 pounds).
- Locate the pre-drilled holes on the bottom corners of the dresser.
- Align each foot with the corresponding holes.
- Securely screw in each foot until it is tight. Ensure all feet are firmly attached for stability.
- With assistance, carefully lift the dresser upright and place it in its desired location.

Installing the Tipping Restraint:
Follow the instructions provided in the Tipping Restraint Pack to securely attach the dresser to a wall stud. This is a critical safety measure.
Operating Your Dresser
The Danabrin dresser features smooth-gliding drawers with dovetail construction and ball-bearing side glides, ensuring effortless opening and closing. The seven drawers are designed for optimal storage:
- Top Drawers: Three smaller drawers, ideal for accessories, socks, or delicate items.
- Bottom Drawers: Four larger, deeper drawers, perfect for clothing, linens, or bulkier items.
To open a drawer, gently pull the metal knob. To close, push the drawer firmly until it is fully seated within the frame.
Care and Maintenance
Proper care will help maintain the beauty and longevity of your dresser:
- Cleaning: For general cleaning, wipe the surface with a dry cloth. For more thorough cleaning, use a damp cloth and immediately wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, strong detergents, or silicone-based polishes, as these can damage the finish.
- Protect from Moisture: Wipe up spills immediately. Avoid placing hot items directly on the surface without protection.
- Sunlight Exposure: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading or discoloration over time.
- Drawer Glides: The ball-bearing glides are designed for smooth operation and generally do not require lubrication. If a drawer becomes stiff, ensure it is not overloaded or misaligned.
