Chest of Drawers 120cm to 160cm High

Chest of Drawers storage options

Chest of Drawers 120cm to 160cm High suit shoppers who want taller storage without choosing an oversized wide piece. In this height band, designs are often tall or narrow, so they can work well in bedrooms where floor space matters but you still need a useful run of drawers.

Heights in this selection run from 114cm to 144.3cm, with many around 119cm to 136.5cm. Widths vary from 40cm to 150cm, though many are around 70cm, and depths are commonly about 40cm to 50cm. That makes it worth checking wall space, skirting boards and door swing, while still leaving room to stand in front and open drawers fully. Drawer layouts are usually five-drawer or six-drawer, with some seven-drawer options. If depth is your main limit, browse Chest of Drawers 30cm to 50cm Deep.

FAQs on Chest of Drawers 120cm to 160cm High

What size chest of drawers should I choose for my bedroom?

Choose based on available wall space and storage needs. Measure your wall width, depth and height before ordering. A 120–140cm tall chest suits most bedrooms; taller 150–160cm models work in rooms with high ceilings. Check product dimensions match your space exactly.

How do I measure a chest of drawers before buying?

Measure three dimensions: width (120–160cm range), depth (typically 35–50cm) and height (stated on product page). Allow 5–10cm clearance from walls for air circulation. Check doorway and stairwell widths to ensure delivery access. Always verify dimensions on the product page before ordering.

Whats the difference between solid wood and MDF chests of drawers?

Solid wood (oak, pine, mango) is more durable, heavier and typically costs more but lasts decades. MDF is lighter, cheaper and available in painted or high gloss finishes, but less impact-resistant. Choose solid wood for longevity; MDF for budget and style variety.

Are tall chests of drawers suitable for small bedrooms?

Yes, tall narrow chests (120–160cm high) maximise vertical space in small rooms, using less floor area than wide, low options. Place against a feature wall to draw the eye upward. Ensure your ceiling height is at least 50cm taller than the chest for visual balance.

How do I style a chest of drawers in my bedroom?

Style the top surface with a table lamp, mirror and small plants for function and visual interest. Ensure the finish complements your bed frame and flooring. Use a runner rug beneath to ground the piece. Avoid overcrowding; leave 40% of the surface clear.

Do I need to anchor a tall chest of drawers to the wall?

Yes, chests taller than 140cm should be secured to the wall using appropriate brackets or anti-tip straps, especially in homes with children or pets. This prevents tip-over accidents. Check the product manual for recommended fixing points and use wall studs where possible.

Whats the best way to care for a wooden chest of drawers?

Dust weekly with a soft, dry cloth. For solid wood, use furniture polish every 3–4 months. Avoid placing near radiators or direct sunlight, which fades finish and causes warping. Wipe spills immediately. For MDF, use a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.

Can I use a chest of drawers outside the bedroom?

Yes, chests work well in hallways for shoes and coats, living rooms for blankets and cushions, or home offices for stationery storage. Choose a finish that suits your décor—natural wood tones for traditional spaces, painted or high gloss for contemporary rooms.

How long does it take to assemble a chest of drawers?

Self-assembly typically takes 30–60 minutes depending on drawer configuration and your experience. Fully assembled options are available on selected models, clearly marked on product pages. Assembly requires basic tools: screwdriver, hammer and level. Follow the instruction manual step-by-step.

What drawer depth should I choose for a chest of drawers?

Standard depths are 35–50cm. Choose 40cm+ for folded clothing and heavier items; 35cm for lighter storage or tight spaces. Deeper drawers hold more but require more room to open fully. Check your wall depth and ensure drawers wont obstruct doors or windows when open.
