Hey Everyone, IKEA recently changed some of the steps with the Hemnes 8 Drawer Dresser. We made an updated and more in depth assembly tutorial on this dresser, here's the link to that video. ua-cam.com/video/QS1KUKTMJXM/v-deo.html&ab_channel=OriginalFurnitureReviews
Excellent video, perfect narration, I appreciate you taking the time to make this for all of us. The dresser was somewhat of a beast once all the boxes were open and wood stacked up but your systematic step by step process helped tremendously. Thank you
Thank you very much for this video, you did an excellent job. I ordered a task rabbit and he kept rescheduling so I cancelled him and did it myself. I wouldn’t be able to do it without your video. You had the best video out of everyone, very professional and organized . Don’t ever stop 💕
thank you for saving me from a stress induced panic attack bc holy hell. the spawn of satan draws the ikea building “manuals”. i was literally 10 secs away from throwing myself and the dresser out my two story house. if i hadn’t found this video, i would have quit my job. ty ty ty lol
😂
Awesome video. Great job explaining. Me and my lady just got this put together thanks to you. Saved $130.
Upon unboxing, I was immediately upset at how the rails were very noticeably bent. But I kept going, all tools needed to assemble were included ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxqtX4Dxs6aecAZEuz6GY5-d81YecKCshn and I had it set up in about 30 minutes. Honestly I love this thing, make sure to read the measurements and measure your space so you know if it'll work for you. I bought this to put inside my closet, underneath where I hang my clothes and it is absolutely perfect! It is VERY sturdy and all drawers glide easily and mine are stuffed, and they are still flush when closed.
30 minutes? For real? No way.
Big thanks! I got to the building the center skeleton section and was worried about having the wrong side exposed. Your video help clear that up. I been building IKEA furniture for 10+ years. I add wood glue to the drawer rails and handles. They are have moved around the world due to being in the military. Never had issues with them falling apart. Again, thank you!!
Best tutorial. Got it done way faster than trying to interpret the drawings in the book. Thanks!
This was SUPER helpful as my husband and I built my new dresser. Thanks for your help!
Haha bro you saved my life with this one for real. Took me about 4 hours but would have taken way longer without your help. Thanks!!!
Assembled my dresser after seven hours, easy to follow and no issues! Thank you for the video!
Thank you this helped me so much. Didn’t even use the manual!! What a lifesaver!
Your video helped alot and saved me a few hours. Did this in about 2 to 3 hours not including rest time. this dresser is straight forward and easy to put together if you watch the videos and manual.
I have the exact dresser as the video but slightly updated screws and all. For anyone installing this at this time. Please know that one of the screws or whatever that metal thing is called in this videos has changed. The version in this video is all metal while the one i got has a plastic or rubber piece in the middle. It is very important that you use the exact screw you see in the manual because if you dont you will end up with drawer not sliding in properly.
Thank you so so much for this!!!! This was so easy to follow along with.
I did it! (3 hrs later) thank you for your help
Having trouble putting the top piece on top 9:06 you skip the step on how to properly insert it. The back screw doesn’t line up
Thanks so much. You have the best video on putting this drawer together. Because of this video I did it all by myself.
Lifesaver! A friend and I used your video to supplement the instruction manual and the two worked together perfectly. Thx for being here! Will always look for your videos first when buying IKEA!
Awesome video! Helped beyond belief!
A really big thank you coming at ya 🫡, well done on your excellent tutorial, marvellous piece of work. THANK YOU AGAIN.
Hope you get all the likes and loves you deserve 💙💙
Thank you so much! This was a tremendous help! Hubby and I definitely struggled in the beginning. Thank you thank you thank you !!!
Thank you, I have had my hemnes 8 drawer chest since 2012 they didn’t come with the supports it was fine until three years ago when I noticed the bottom coming away went to IKEA and got the supports came home and didn’t know how to fit them, but thanks to you I’ve finally put the drawer supports in today following your instructions.
I’m grateful you were there to help.
I have another problem while screwing the three drawers divers in they started to split so I stopped which caused a gap and the drawers leaning sideways and I have lived with them like this since.
Please help me correct this issue.
A VERY BIG THANK YOU
Great video dude. You should be a teacher or instructor of some sort in any field. You're assertive easy to listen to and your instructions are clear and easy to follow. Putting furniture together and also getting the 411 on furniture details isn't always easy or something the general public wants to do on there own lol but you definitely give a good run down of the pros and cons.
The best guide on I seen so far. Makes it mad simple 🐐
Thanks for demonstrating this assembly. Your video is clear and helpful.
No BS, very straightforward. Thank you and well done.
Thank you so much, your step by step made it so much easier.
Excellent video thank you made my day stress free
The Allen wrench isn’t screwing the four screws in the top
Great video! , it saved me a lot of time , the paper directions are brutal! Thank you 👍
Thanks Could have not done it without your video.Appreciate it😊
That’s great and helpful man, was stuck for a bit
Thank you for this you made it simpler than the book!!!
This video deserves a million likes….
Best tutorial ever! Thanks so much 😊
Any tips for when the spaces on either side of the drawers don't match?
you are a life saver!
Thank you so much for the excellent video
Thank you for your detailed instructions. Super helpful!!
Thank you! Best tutorial out there
Great content. Not interested in the dresser but your other videos were a huge help in getting my new place setup. Just here to give a thumbs up and help w growth
Thanks, really appreciate it
Thanks so much! I did it with your help and I'm a woman!
Ξεκινάμε πρώτο με το κουτί 1 τη συναρμολόγηση? Μετά με το κουτί 2 και μετα με το 3? Ή είναι μπερδεμένα τα κομμάτια?
Truly a nightmare to assemble but your video helped a ton! Needless to say, won’t be buying anymore IKEA furniture from now on.
thank you so much for your video! this helped me out TONS!!
Would you happen to know the maximum top load ? I want to place my oled tv and soundbar on top
I can't thank you enough
About how long would you say that took to assemble? Trying to gauge time.
This is amazing. Thank you so much for making this!
I'm confused at 6:50
Mine one uncolored facing outside
It would seem that Ikea has added additional parts that are not shown in the video.
I like the part where you skipped what I wanted to see. Hammering the plastic pins into the drawers
This is such a terrible design flaw as it was the only part that I wanted to see as well…what a nightmare
My drawers keep hitting the screws. Click and grinding while opening. How do I fix this?
Life savor!
How long does this take on average to build?
All the legs don't touch the ground causing my dresser to rock 😢 What did I do wrong?
6:20 two of the screws won't go all the way in even tho it's the right one
Thank you for this video!
My long cross piece of wood doesn’t have an unstained side…what do I do ???
thanks for the help:)
My drawers catch like crazy. What am I doing wrong?
thanks so much this was such a big help!!!
Thank you. You save my life ❤️
Kinda bullshit how u don’t struggle to put in your top panel, this shit hard as fuck to align all these screws
thank you. you helped me
THANK YOU!😊😊
Thank you sir! A lot of pausing. 3.5 hours and I’m done. Someone give this man money
easiest thing i couldve followed. Ikea sure knows how to confuse someone inexperienced!
I only have 3 of the metal rods that go beneath the drawers. what do i do?
great, thanks alot. perfect
Thank you! Newly separated and I was able to do this by myself with ease! Keep up the great work!
The best!
I have trouble screw two middle ones at manual number 27. Anyone has same issue?
Just finished setting up my dresser thank you so much for the step by step instructions
Made my life easier, unfortunately the top part is not locking in so I still have to get those banana heads to come over and fix it
MERRY CHRISTMAS KEVIN 😎
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
One of my fasteners isn’t going on step 16
9:49 I only have one backing
I specifically came here to see how to balance the parts of the drawer while hammering in the pegs for the back panel. Because if I start hammering, everything just shakes apart. Why did you skip this crucial moment? :( I need real-life advice! :(
Yuo the best 👌
Um I’m missing 4 screws
Man I gotta start from scratch.
Are you able to fix it?
@@cakesballoonsdecordiy8782 I haven’t even attempted again yet fml
The rails aren't long enough to screw in the first panels
I am having the same problem! Is it the right side that’s giving you trouble? I googled it and this seems to be a common flaw caused by production. I live over 3 hours from the nearest ikea and they are only offering a replacement if I come in to the store. 🙃
The left rails do not match the holes on the wood on mine. I hate this dresser!!
The drawers are locking all the time.
Dude why did you go all over the place and not stay in one sequence 😂😂
Wish I would have watched this one instead of the other video 😅
I know right🤣🤣😅😅
Man, thanks you! Ikea directions weren’t worth much.
commenting for the al gore rythm
Came back to comment again.soon at 1k! Good job yall
This is worst of worst IKEA furniture. Take hours to assemble it.
