Why this isn't in the manufacturer's instruction manual is beyond me. So simple yet so hard to see, and never would've figured out that they needed to go two different directions. Thank you!
For five years, I've been trying to figure out how to do this with my European dresser and nightstand drawers. Who knew the solution was so simple! Thank you!
OMG! Thanks! It took me one second! This video is invaluable especially for people like me who struggled to do it for weeks on my own before thinking of searching UA-cam. I had two drawers with something behind them. I didn't have to take them completely off the tracks, just pulled the drawer further forward so I could retrieve the items. What a relief! I was trying much harder ways to remedy this and nothing was working.
I was watching this video and then my neighbour came and we watched it together. He said that this video changed his life and touched his heart. I then went and rented a projector in a big field and my entire town watched it and it changed their lives too. We all are so grateful.Thank You very much for this video!
Years later and your video is still helping people.😊 For a year I have been trying to get clothes from behind the drawer with tongs😩😡. I always say I'm going to go to the furniture store but never do. So I search you tube for everything so I thought why not ask it on you tube and found your video 1st. Had to watch it twice to fully understand it but Glory to God it worked. Thank you so so much ❤️ God Bless You😇
Both kittens. I had called the manufacturer and got nowhere. But that was just for a bra that fell from the first draw. Then I got kittens 🤦. They noticed the draw, but never went in. They did today and I was ready to smash the whole draw with a hammer. I had already removed the screws when I thought "google it". Your video was short, simple and to the point. Thank you for saving my dresser and kittens.
So I had to lure kittens out with treats and a laser light because I didn’t know how to get this open. My current issue is clothes that have gotten stuck.
Thank you! I had tried several times throught the years to do this with my dressers and I couldn't. I had given up when my husband told me our drawers weren't removable but I knew they had to be!
Thank you! I have intermittently tried to figure out how to do this on my bedroom furniture since I purchased it about 9 years ago! It was so easy. I am so grateful. THANK YOU
This totally worked for me. My problem was a pullout shelf. No one else explained that with the draw slides the left must go down the right up! The slides were difficult to see further complicating the issue. But this video was so on point. Thank you.
Thank you so much my medication was struck behind my 2 drawer nightstand. I have had this furniture since 2016 and never removed a drawer since it was delivered.
Wow! My store provided written instructions to remove all 6 sidescrews, lift the drawer up and push in the "tab", which wasn't there. I said there has to be a better way, and after running around the house to pickup my screwdrivers, I got lucky and caught this Video. Awesome!!!
Thank you so much for making this video! I have these types of drawers, am moving and couldn't figure out for the life of me how to remove them. Much appreciated!
I was in the middle of assembling a coffee table. The drawers came with it were installed couldn't get them out, We were stuck. THANK YOU!!!! What a life saver.
Oh my god. Your video helped me to rescue my big mainecoon cat who got stuck behind the chest drawer. Him and I were both got super stressed. He began to bleed due to biting the drawing as he was panicking and stressed. Your video helped me to remove the drawer and rescue him. Thank you soo much 💗🙏🏽
I knew there was a way to do it! thank you. so simple and easy and i never would have figured it out myself short of breaking the thing. thank you thank you
Thankyou 1000 times!!!was struggling for past half an hour..dint expect anyone will upload this!! It just took 2 seconds as per Ur video..thanks again..UA-cam has made my life easy!
This video saved me from embarrassment. My son pushed a cloth inside a drawer in a friend's house and I took the help of the video to know how to open the drawer and remove the cloth. Thank you
Thank you, thank you! Have just spent 30 minutes and fruitless you tube videos. Then watched this and the draw was out within seconds. Thank you again 😀
I did have a thumbs down because even if she said left up and right down, he continue working on the SAME side OF THE DRAWER. and even shows pushing the lever down and made a drawing like there’s another lever right there IN THE SAME SIDE OF THE DRAWER. They should’ve shown that it was ON THE OTHER AIDE OF THE DRAWER.
I dropped a package of batteries behind a drawer with side glides and tried for 45 minutes to get them out. I used a long screwdriver and other tools to reach them, but no avail. And even if I managed to move those batteries to the front of the area underneath the drawer, I still couldn't get them out because the space was too small. And then I watched your tutorial. So easy. Thank you! 🙏🏻
Thank you for the brevity and clarity of explanation. Idk what I would do like 30 years ago when you couldn't just look something up that was giving you trouble.
Can I just say a huge thank you. I have been up since 1am battling with this and even Wayfair Customer Service had no idea today. Have had my bedside table for over a year now. I knew UA-cam would have the answer 😀
My drawers not closing has been bothering me for months lol then I finally get on the floor to fix it and can’t figure out how to take the dang drawersvout UUGGGGHHHH! This was the first thing that came up and it worked!!! Thanks so much!
Life saver! I have so many clothes we bought some huge dressers from Ashley. Sometimes clothes fall behind. My husband is a maintenance supervosor and has been for over a decade. Any problem I have, I call for him. I didn't know how helpless I was until he got hospitalized this week. I'm on my own for the next 3 weeks min, so thanks for explaining one of the many things I've had to fix or figure out so far in the last 5 days lol.
As far as I’m concerned, the author of this video should receive sainthood! I’ve never been so excited to finally get the contents that fell behind the drawer! That you!❤
Thank you so much! My 3 year old Son wanted some stickers that got stuck behind the drawer and came running to me for help. His face lit up when I removed the drawer. With the help of this video Im still his hero! And also my Wife’s since I didn’t break anything in the process. Haha! Thanks!
So I needed to remove the bottom drawer of my dresser to remove a pair of socks that had fallen behind the drawer preventing the drawer from closing. I understand the general concept of these drawers but tried for over 30 min to figure out how to remove it, knowing somewhere there had to be a latch on either side. After watching this vid I realized that the drawer, although appearing to be fully extended, actually was not. A slightly sharp pull, the and drawer extended another inch, the tabs extended and I had the drawer out in 30 seconds. (Turns out there were three pair of socks behind the drawer.) One point I would clarify for those like me that need information to be painfully obvious, there is one latch on the left side of the drawer ONE on the right side (opposite side of drawer) and these two separate latches need to be activated in unison and the drawer will come right out. Thanks for the vid.
THANK YOU!!!! I was trying to remove the drawers from an old desk and was getting so frustrated I was about to tear it apart, lol. The side clips were much smaller and slimmer than these in the vid, like toothpick sized, but I was able to get them out thanks to your vid. I cannot thank you all enough!!
Thank God for this video. I just followed the instructions (which took like 6x to view) and finally removed my second drawer of my nightstand so I can clear the paper that fell.
Lifesaver! Thanks. I got something stuck behind my drawer. I tied to get the drawer out. Unscrewed the drawer and it wouldn’t budge. I was getting so upset… I was about to grab a hammer and bang this drawer out. But then I thought. There must be a video of UA-cam. And here you were! What a shocker to release how easy it was. Thank you. Now I will put my screws back in. Haha
Just bought a house with a bathroom vanity w/6 drawers. Saw these black tabs but would not have thought that one went up and the other down. Didn’t even have to remember which went up and the other down. Just look at them! Thank you. Especially great that I found this on first try!search
Thanks a lot! I had an envelope (with important documents) stuck behind + under the drawer and I could extract it, thanks to your video! I sincerely appreciate your help! Gratitude!!!
Thank you so much, before watching the video, it was very hard to open the drawer, after watching the tutorial, we pulled it out and put it back with ease.Thank you so much❤
Thanks for the help, tried several times to pull it out finally I gave up n thn thought to seek some help from u tube. Found u n it was so easy i never knew ☺️ thanks again
Thank you, thank you, thank you for solving this mystery! I have wasted so many hours within the last week trying to figure out how to get this darn j drawer out and couldn’t. Didn’t even think I would find the instructions here, but Wala!! The first video, and it was exactly what I needed. Darn it manufacturers, how did you expect us to figure this out is beyond me. What happened to instructions?
I don't know how I will express my gratitude to this creator..... You have saved me from a big trouble.... Almost you saved my life..... Thank you so much
10/10 for this story time:- My cat somehow managed to open the drawer and then somehow also managed to fall behind it while I was looking away. I freaked out so bad cause it's early morning and no one else is around, tried dismantling it using screw drivers and what not till I decided to UA-cam it. Thank God for this video 😭😭😭 just saved my ass and my cats.
