Parts List

Before beginning assembly, verify that all components listed below are present and undamaged. Refer to the included step-by-step instructions and accessories bag for specific part labels.

  • Dresser Panels (various sizes for top, bottom, sides, back, and drawer components)
  • 6 Easy-glide Drawers (components for assembly)
  • Ball Bearing Metal Drawer Runners (for smooth drawer operation)
  • Anti-tipping Hardware (for securing the dresser to a wall)
  • Assembly Hardware (screws, cam locks, dowels, etc.)
  • Step-to-step Instructions (detailed assembly guide)

Setup and Assembly

Assembly is estimated to take approximately 40 minutes for one person, but two people are recommended for easier handling of larger components. All parts are numbered and the process is designed for straightforward setup.

Required Tools (Not Included):

  • Phillips Head Screwdriver
  • Hammer (optional, for dowels)

Assembly Steps:

  1. Unpack and Organize: Lay out all parts on a clean, soft surface (e.g., carpet or blanket) to prevent scratches. Group similar parts and hardware.
  2. Separate Drawer Slides: The metal drawer slides come in two parts. Carefully separate the inner slide from the outer slide by pressing the small black lever or tab. The inner slide attaches to the drawer box, and the outer slide attaches to the dresser frame.

  3. Attach Slides to Drawer Sides: Secure the inner drawer slides to the designated side panels of each drawer using the provided screws. Ensure they are aligned correctly.
  4. Assemble Drawer Boxes: Connect the front, back, and side panels of each drawer using dowels and cam locks. Ensure the cam locks are turned to secure the connections.

  6. Assemble Dresser Frame: Connect the top, bottom, and side panels of the main dresser frame using the provided hardware.
  7. Insert Drawers: Once the frame is assembled and slides are attached, carefully insert each assembled drawer into its corresponding slot.
  8. Install Anti-Tipping Hardware: Securely attach the anti-tipping hardware to the back of the dresser and to a wall stud, following the specific instructions provided in the accessories bag. This step is critical for safety.

Operating Instructions

The HOSTACK 6 Drawer Dresser features easy-glide drawers with cut-out handles for smooth and convenient operation.

  • Opening Drawers: Gently pull the cut-out handle on the front of each drawer to open. The ball-bearing metal runners ensure a smooth glide.
  • Closing Drawers: Push the drawer firmly until it is fully closed and flush with the dresser frame.
  • Weight Capacity: Each drawer is designed to hold up to 35 lbs. Avoid exceeding this limit to ensure longevity and proper function of the drawer slides.

Maintenance

  • Cleaning: Wipe the dresser surfaces with a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish.
  • Hardware Check: Periodically inspect all screws and fasteners to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as needed to maintain stability.
  • Drawer Slides: The ball-bearing metal runners are pre-lubricated. If drawers become stiff over time, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the tracks.
  • Avoid Excessive Moisture: Protect the dresser from prolonged exposure to moisture or direct sunlight to prevent warping or fading.

Troubleshooting

  • Drawers not closing smoothly:
    • Check if the drawer slides are correctly aligned and securely attached to both the drawer box and the dresser frame.
    • Ensure no objects are obstructing the drawer's path or the slide mechanism.
    • Verify that the drawer is not overloaded, exceeding the 35 lbs capacity.
  • Dresser feels wobbly:
    • Confirm that all assembly screws and cam locks are fully tightened.
    • Ensure the dresser is placed on a level surface.
    • Verify that the anti-tipping hardware is correctly installed and secured to a wall stud.
  • Missing parts: If any parts are missing or damaged upon arrival, please contact customer support for assistance.
