Assembly Instructions

Assembly is required for this product. While designed for straightforward setup, it is recommended to have two people for certain steps due to the weight and size of the components. The estimated assembly time is approximately 2.5 hours.

General Tips:

• Unpack Carefully: Open the packaging in the room where the dresser will be assembled to minimize moving heavy boxes.

• Two-Person Lift: The assembled unit is heavy. Always lift with at least two people to prevent injury and damage to the furniture.
• Drawer Installation: For easier drawer installation, lay the main unit down on its back or side when inserting the drawers. This helps ensure they lock into place correctly without resistance.
