Graco Auburn 6 Drawer Double Dresser, Espresso


The build quality of this dresser s very nice, much better than many other brands of knocked down furniture I have assembled. (My previous life we sold a fair amount of kd furniture for computers and generally assembled it for the client.)  The finish has some areas that the stain needs touched up.  The openings around the drawer have almost a framed look due to the lack of stain making a lighter color line.   There are a couple of scratches on the finish that appear to have been there when the product was stained.   They are scratched but since they are stained, I have to guess it was done prior to staining.   The drawers insert easily and they move quietly and easily   The finished piece has a good look to it. 

Assembly should have been easier.  Printing part numbers on the sheets the parts were adhered to would helped to avoid errors.   On the plus side there were actually all the screws and pieces there were supposed to be.   I guess that is a commentary on how frequently that isn't the case.   Assembly wasn't difficult but I think the diagrams could be clearer and I  know clear labels on the parts would have saved me some aggravation.  The only place I was able to use a power screw driver was the backing of the dresser.  All the rest of the areas that had screws were angled to the point that only the included Allen wrench could reach. 

Overall it is a nice piece of furniture that should provide good service but the instructions could use some work.

Remington RM2510 Rustler 17-Inch 25cc 2-Cycle Curved Shaft Gas Trimmer with QuickStart Technology

I haven't had a gas powered weed wacker for several years.   I still find the mixing of gas and oil a pain in the butt.   Since all my gas cans are in use and I didn't want to empty one to test this, I bought a new one gallon can.   The Remington includes a starter can of oil, 3.2oz which you mix with one gallon of gas.   I'm a direction reader so after reading them several times I began.  I installed the shield and repositioned the handle.   Pretty simple and wing nuts are not just goofy people, these wing nuts worked just fine.   It has a primer bulb which you depress ten times and then adjust the choke and pull away.   It is a very light pull and it started after the third sequence  of five pulls.   You leave it warm up and then you are ready to go.   The bump head that is supposed to release the cutting line works but not smoothly.  I was unable to get it to release line on the grass.  I had to "bump" it on the driveway to get it to release.   I
