Milo 2-Drawer Open Shelf Nightstand

Update! I wanted to update this to say I did contact Prepac and they replied back within a couple of business days and handling sending new drawer fronts. It did up taking two weeks for the replacement parts to get here BUT that wasn’t a really big deal. I can be a patient person lol. I upped my review to 5 stars just due to having them correct their mistakes quickly without further issue and the replacements are perfect so it looks great now! And also as I mentioned originally the quality itself wasn’t a huge issue for me, I just felt it was a little over priced is all! Overall I’m pretty happy with this! The things I liked most about this item was the size and style. The size was great for me, it’s a pretty good size and was actually a little bigger in person than I expected just by looking at measurements. And I love the actual design of the piece. BUT I did have a few issues and these are things I honestly saw mentioned in other reviews as well. To start with- when we finally got the package and opened it it was very clear someone had haphazardly sprayed the foam stuff with the box still open bc it was stuck to the top of the box (on the inside- which resulted in our instruction manual being basically super glued to the box, luckily it only soaked thru the first page or so and we could still read the instructions) and was on some of the pieces- which sadly ended up being the two drawer fronts. My husband tried his best to get the stuff off but it was stuck on like super glue and was hard. He got a large majority of it off but there are still several spots on the front that you can plainly tell are messed up from where the foam spray was on it. So I will be contacting the seller about that to request two new drawer fronts. I will follow up on that once I speak with them. Now beyond that large annoyance- overall I do like this piece. I’m not a super picky, uppity person about these things so as far as it being pressed wood and, as some others stated, “cheaper” feeling this wasn’t a big bother to me. The sturdiness is as expected with pressed wood furniture. I think it’s pretty much fine for my standards. Obviously it can be scratched up kinda easier, etc, but again that’s not a huge bother to us. The one thing I will say about the quality is that, again as others stated, I noticed that the drawers were a little crooked. Mine weren’t super bad so again it didn’t bother me. It’s not something I would notice in day to day life. I just happen to notice bc I was sitting in the floor eye level with the drawers while putting them in- in my case lol. The only other complaint as far as actual looks/usability goes, is that the drawers don’t open up very far. So that’s a little annoying but I just use this as a nightstand so it is what it is. Not something I’m stressed over. It also wasn’t hard to put together at all for me but it did take about maybe 30 mins all together and I move kinda slow lol. The only other thing I will say is that I personally feel given some of these things that the price is high in my opinion. Now if the quality/packing/ etc was better then I might be able to see it being closer to the price it has. Overall, I do like it a lot despite those things. Do I wish I paid less? Yes. Am I going to dwell on it and what not? No. I read a lot of the reviews so I honestly had a little expectation that it would be less than perfect anyways. So I was prepared to possibly want to send it back, etc. I see a lot of overpriced “cheap” furniture now days not just on Amazon so for me personally this was no different than going to Walmart and buying a Mainstays brand furniture piece as far as quality and standards go!

I was using a TV try and the bedside table has been a real improvement. I purchased the tall linen chest some weeks later which I love too. The larger drawer did have an awful chemical smell for weeks and gave me headaches at first. The smaller night stand didn't bother me with a stong smell. Happy with both at this time. In fact I just bought a 4 drawer chest in black for a another room. I love the design. It did take me a while to put them together since most pieces are not marked, it could have gone faster.

This nightstand is tall, has plenty of storage, is sturdy, and overall is very nice. The nightstands at Ikea are twice the price but flimsy and ugly, so I highly recommend this instead. It is easy to build as long as you do the step where you put on the legs before you put on the bottom piece to the nightstand. You’ll understand when you see it, just save yourself time, it’s much easier to screw in the legs when the piece isn’t attached yet. Only reason for 4 star instead of 5 is nothing is really labeled and some steps are out of order but it’s not hard to look at the pictures and match up the boards. Super pleased with it, it even comes with a pen to cover up any unavoidable scratches or scuffs!

I have a few other bedroom items from Pepac so already knew the quality would be good. These bedside tables are very sturdy, well finished and the color-coding of specific pieces make it very easy to put together without making mistakes and having to redo (I always mess up with the sliders but not here). Definitely a level in quality most other flatpack companies.

This is a really cute end table, perfect for where I wanted it. But it’s a real pain to put together. I had been working on it for an hour, and my husband came home from work and he helped me finish it, which took another hour!! NONE OF THE BOARDS ARE MARKED, SO YOU JUST HAVE TO GUESS AND HOPE YOU GUESS RIGHT!! The table looks exactly as pictured.

Far exceeded my expectations for flat-pack furniture - the Made in USA quality definitely shows. Packed well and safely, high quality parts, high quality fasteners (hard to find and really going the extra mile on quality), clearly written instructions, great fit and finish, and generous extra hardware. Just GREAT. This is what all flat-pack furniture should be like.

The set up printed directions were clear. Example "connect A with B”. However nothing was marked A,.B etc so the directions were nearly worthless. Simply labeling the pieces would dramatically shorten the set up time. Don’t buy this if your time is valuable. If you enjoy solving puzzles this is for you.

I have been looking for nightstands for well over 2 years and I am so glad I found these! Although I looked at others (already assembled) they were 3-4 times the cost of these. The Cherry color is very nice and the materials are sturdy and well made. The instructions were clear, parts were labeled, and all the components were in the packaging. They arrived securely packaged with no damage. That being said, I did not assemble them but enlisted my husband (who built houses for a living) to put them together. The first one took around 30 minutes and the second one less time. There are videos with the description of the product on the Amazon website, which are worth taking your time to look at. We are very happy with the nightstands and will not hestitate to purchase from this seller again.
