Make no mistake – this product is of cheap quality, and looks much better in the photo than when you receive the package. That being said, it isn’t that bad, especially considering that you are paying 60 bucks with no shipping for a 3 shelf dresser. You won’t find anything for that price at any store if you are on a budget. The parts are also cheap, and the shelves are secured by plastic pieces that you hammer into each shelf. The value isn’t bad and I would recommend this if you are just looking for some basic storage and nothing fancy.

I purchased this dresser as a stop gap solution since I just moved into a new home.
For $60, you get a reasonable quality dresser. South of Ikea quality, but not laughable.
That is, of course, if you receive all the appropriate pieces. The unit I received had an extra drawer left side, but one too few right sides. No problem, right? South Shore says they will ship you replacement parts free of charge.
So three weeks and several phone calls later, I received my replacement part: The backing plate to an entirely different dresser.
I’ve submitted another request for parts and I patiently await their response. Based on my interaction so far, I expect to receive a tea kettle, several rubber bands, and the Best of Earth, Wind and Fire on vinyl.

I am returning this dresser. I saw the other comments about the strong odor emitting from this dresser but ignored them because I figured after a week or so it would outgas to the point of being less bothersome. But it did not. Then I researched why there was a noxious odor coming from the dresser. I found out that formaldehyde (currently classified as a carinogen) is causing the odor, coming from the resin that holds the wood particles together in the particle board. It could take 6 months to several years to outgas to a level that would not be noticeable, and even then do I really want to risk my and my family’s health even though the smell would be less when I can get real wood for a little more $. You may have other products in the house that are made of particle board but this one is particularly bad in the strength of this odor- perhaps because of the amount of it that is open to the air without any seal or veneer, on the inside particularly. It is bad enough that being manufactured in Canada, I question whether it is in compliance with allowed formaldehyde emission levels in the US, especially California which I believe has the strictest standards.
Odor aside the dresser was good for the price. But considering that material cost for making something like this is a small percentage of total production cost versus labor and overhead, it probably would have cost less than $10 to make this from real hardwood and I would pay $10 more. This will never happen though until consumers take a stand by not buying these materials.

We purchased a South Shore Brand dresser for our bedroom and I assembled it effortlessly, so when we saw this on on Amazon at such a great price, we jumped at it for our new baby’s nursery. It was much easier to put together than other products we have purchased for our home (other brands) in the past, no guessing game of what piece goes where. It’s sturdy and just enough space for a baby’s things until he gets a little older. And once again, you can’t beat the price!

Like another reviewer, I read about the smell before ordering this, but figured it would offgas in a reasonable amount of time.
This dresser looks nice for the price, but it smells absolutely HORRIBLE. The fumes are so strong that it instantly makes my throat hurt to be in the same room as it, and it’s been “airing out” for about a month and a half now. I even put the drawers outside in the fresh air for days, sprayed them with Febreeze, and they still stink.
The worst part is, we bought this for our nursery (our baby is due in a month), and all of the clothes and linens I put in this dresser smell horrible. There is no way I will put them on my baby. Therefore, this dresser, although looking nice, is completely unusable.
