User Submitted Stork Craft Beatrice Combo Tower Chest in Natural Stain Reviews

Looks nice.....
I bought this changing table/dresser combo and the matching dresser that goes with it. They look beautiful in my daughters room but they are very cheaply made. The drawers are shallow (which I knew before purchasing from other reviews), there are parts that never fit tightly together so there are gaps in areas, and after only a year, handles are falling off and depite super glue and guerilla glue they keep falling off. The main structure has held up fine so far.

It will serve its purpose...
I was very hesitant after seeing such mixed reviews. This is a nice looking piece, but is not the greatest piece ever built. I don't know how long this will last us as a piece of furniture to grow with baby, but for the price, it will serve its purpose.

The instructions were easy to follow, but because of the MANY MANY pieces, this item took longer to put together than our Storkcraft Rochester crib. I believe it took us almost 3 hours, largely because we couldn't get the door on straight.

In short, I think the Storkcraft furniture is all about your expectations. If you expect high quality furniture for a low price, you will be disappointed as many of the reviewers here seem to be. If you expect decent furniture for a decent price, you will probably have your expectations met.

Great delivery, service, fair product
Although I received this item quickly, was able to put it together without much difficulty and was able to order an extra screw without charge, the overall product quality was inferior to what I expected. The wood on the highest level top shelf is scratchable with the fingernail and most of the parts are not solid wood. I guess for the price it's a fair deal, though.

Customer service does not exist.
I will not buy another Storkcraft item. There customer service department is extremely poor. We have been waiting for a replacement part for weeks. I called after the 3 week waiting period had passed and was told by a representative that she did not know when the part would ship. I asked to speak to the supervisor, the representative transferred me to his voice mail. He was not in, but she did not offer that information to me. I called back and asked not be be transferred to his voicemail, it was another representative that told me he was not in. Why couldn't the first rep I spoke to tell me that. I spent a total of 25 minutes on hold in placing just two calls. I am now in the process of emailing the company and calling the supervior on a daily basis until I get some satisfaction.

A little pricey for the trouble...
I hesitantly purchased this item because my husband and I have a hard time agreeing and we both liked this style. Ultimately it looks wonderful, but it took us 3 hours to put together. The instructions are in pictures which are suprisingly harder to understand than words!
The pieces don't fit together perfectly, but I'm satisfied with the result. If i had to do it again, I would probably spend the extra money and get a higher quality table in hopes that it would go together easier.

***UPDATE ***
10 months later. . . It's still held up remarkably well! I really do like this item. I've forgotten how difficult it was to put together, now it is just a very nice piece in my son's room that's the perfect height for me as well as my husband.

Not Impressed
This is a nice looking dresser, however I would not recommend it. Some of the hardware was missing, screw holes in the wood were either misplaced, too small, or not there at all. It took a while to put together as wooden pieces did not appear as displayed on directions.

Finish Damage
2 points marked off perfect score. 1st; a panel was delivered with damage to the finish. It is unclear if the panel was damage in shipping or from the manufacturer. 2nd; the instruction could be more clear and several screws are similar in size and shape but they are not packaged seaparatly.

Pleasantly surprised!
Received the chest in 12 days, just as promised. We took everything apart and checked each piece to note any damage. Out of all the pieces there is one minor scratch that will not be noticed unless you take a magnifying glass to the piece. Overall very pleased with the quality. There is alot of solid wood along with the manufactured stuff. Not much diffrent than the same dressers you will find at Babies R Us. Unless you go to the very high end solid wood furniture that would cost well over 3 times this price it is a very good value. Checked all the nuts and bolts. Everything is there. If you want a decent looking nursery piece that will function for you after baby is older you would be hard pressed to find something less expensive with better quality. We received the matching hutch which was in good condition also. As far as the size of the changing pad, Target has one that is 30" long. It seems to fit this chest.

Beatrice Tower
I received this product (Beatrice Tower) sooner than I ever thought and I was pleased with that part. When assembling the product, it was easily assembled until we got to assembling the drawers and realized that the sides of the drawers were all for the left side and none for the right side! I called the manufacturer's number that was on the instruction sheet and they have agreed to send the correct sides for the drawer assembly. Hopefully, I will get them soon so my new granddaughter will be able to have this beautiful piece of furniture in her room. The wood had a few dings and knicks on it, but like others before me have written, I plan on using a black magic marker for that part. Otherwise, I am sure we will enjoy this product and it will be a great addition to my granddaughter's room whenever I finally get the correct parts! The price was very acceptable, so I hate to complain too much!

Set Aside 8 hours
This chest is great. Exactly what my wife and I wanted. It just annoyed me that I had to pay $300 for a piece and spend two separate evenings putting it together. Not one bit of it is pre put together. I had to put in every screw, nut, bold, door, put togther all the drawers. Set aside a lot of time to put this one together.
