Arabella Painted Wardrobe Triple

Not too difficult to build.

Good product at good price, however assembly was difficult and took 9 hours....not guide time of 4! Several holes were not drilled through properly and instruction not as easy or clear as drawers and dressing table

Difficult to follow build instructions, again some pieces were damaged, but unable to return items as this furniture was needed immediately same with all pieces bought.

very pleased with this item

This is a well-made and stylish product and I was pleased with the finished result. However, as a seasoned putter-togetherer of flat pack furniture, I defy anyone to assemble it in anything like the two and a half hours suggested by the manufacturer. It took me about four hours. Some of the details on the assembly plans were wrong. E.g. some of the drill holes on the instructions , which you need to count carefully in order to orientate the pieces correctly, didn't always correspond with the holes on the panels. A minor niggle: The back of th wardrobe is made from very flimsy ply and is attached by panel pins. You really need a panel pin driver to attach these rather than the hammer, which is suggested in the instructions, because hammer blows cause the ply to flap around as you are fixing it. A couple of tips: If you start fixing the ply panels from the top left hand corner and work your way down to the bottom right corner, you may well find that the last panel is a fraction of an inch out and won't sit properly into the rebate. Put all the panels in place before you start fixing them. It helps if you set out and label all the screws before you start assembly – good practice with all flat pack furniture. Here it's particularly important because some of the screws seem to be of the same length until you measure them.

A beautiful wardrobe, much hanging space and stands perfectly in a small bedroom. product arrived without damage .

I am happy with the finished item but it took me seven and a half hours to put together, not the 2 hours quoted. I consider myself experienced at DIY and cannot believe it can be put together in the time quoted on the website.

good solid wardrobe well worth money probably buy sum more later on next year

Overall I am very happy with my new wardrobe. However, it is complicated to put together and needs care as some of the wood is very soft and can be easily damaged. The doors were difficult to hang correctly but with time can be done.

Quite difficult to assemble - instructions not clear

Waited over two months for it to arrive. Furniture is nothing like the colour in the picture as its almost yellow. Picture instructions are virtually impossible to follow, no words at all. If I can ever manage to get it assembled, it does appear as though it will probably be quite strong but I'm not at all sure that will outweigh the negatives.

Solid when finished & of good quality but instructions on assembly not that easy to follow & easy to make mistakes. Drawers need a lot of gluing together as wooden dowels to drawer fronts not very tight fitting.

Great wardrobe for price, took a while to put together, used extra glue for stability as per other reviews. Overall very pleased. Delivery AAA rated, got a time slot we asked for, no hassle!

Great quality item and very sturdy when built. Instructions very hard to understand and definitely takes longer than a couple of hours but well worth it in the end.

Instructions were very hard to follow, took 3 times the time stated in the instructions to put together, nearly caused a divorce in our house. once together quality of product not bad for price.

Yes the overall quality is very good, I do think that to provide another back brace for the wardrobe would be a good idea.

Wardrobe is fine--well packed and just one screw missing! Paint finish in a couple of places was a bit rough.

Very pleased with our Arabella Wardrobe, due to height restrictions we had to assemble it standing up. The instructions are not very clear and take some working out, perhaps thats why it took us 5 hours - not 2.5 as suggested! It could do with more glue in the kit and the up right between the 3 doors could do with a brace for greater strength. Overall I would recommend the wardrobe for the price. Pine Solutions were very helpful with advice and excellent delivery service.

Overall, poorly made. Would not recommend to others.
