Anyone know where I can buy a dresser for my kids room? Something sturdy, not cheap quality, drawers that glide easily and don't break and not very expensive. Preferably wood.

Dressers are a very complex piece of furniture, and it's hard to get them cheap but not poor quality.

Anything pre-assembled will either be very junky or very expensive. Anything sold unassembled is buyer beware, some are garbage and some not, but if you don't assemble them properly (following directions precisely, using wood glue and electric drill/screwdriver as necessary) they will be garbage either way. Ikea dressers are a very good example of this.

For me a major concern with kids dressers is how easily they tip. You should of course attach them to the wall either way, but I am more comfortable with a more stable dresser by design.

I have mentioned it elsewhere but this dresser is a stable design. You can only open one drawer at a time which makes it even harder to tip.
