Buying Guide

  • How to Choose the Right Chest of Drawers

    A chest of drawers is one of the most practical and versatile pieces of bedroom furniture you'll ever own. It keeps clothing organised, reduces clutter and provides valuable storage while enhancing the overall look of your bedroom. Choosing the right one isn't simply about finding a design you like, it's about selecting furniture that suits your room, your storage requirements and the way you live.


    Before making your decision, consider how much storage you need, the available space in your room and how you'd like your furniture to complement your existing décor. Whether you're furnishing a spacious master bedroom, a compact guest room or a growing family home, choosing the right chest of drawers will help keep your bedroom organised for years to come.

  • Wide Chest of Drawers

    A wide chest of drawers offers generous storage while creating an elegant focal point within the bedroom. With multiple large drawers, these designs provide plenty of space for clothing, knitwear, bedding, towels and everyday essentials, making them an excellent choice for master bedrooms or shared bedrooms.


    The wider surface also creates the perfect space for styling. Add a table lamp, a large bedroom mirror, framed artwork or decorative accessories to create a beautifully balanced display that adds warmth and personality to your room. If you have the available wall space, a wide chest combines practicality with timeless style and often eliminates the need for additional storage furniture.

  • Tallboy Chest of Drawers

    A tallboy chest of drawers is ideal when floor space is limited but storage is still a priority. By making use of vertical space, tallboys provide excellent storage without occupying a large footprint, making them perfect for apartments, guest bedrooms, children's rooms and smaller UK homes.


    Their taller proportions also help draw the eye upwards, creating the impression of a higher ceiling and a more spacious room. Pair a tallboy with matching bedside tables or a wardrobe in a complementary finish to create a coordinated bedroom that feels both organised and uncluttered.

  • Compact Chest of Drawers

    Compact three and four-drawer chests are perfect for rooms where every centimetre counts. They provide practical storage for clothing and everyday essentials without dominating the room, making them ideal for guest bedrooms, children's bedrooms, dressing rooms and smaller homes.


    These versatile drawer units can also be used beyond the bedroom. Many homeowners place compact chests in hallways, landings or home offices to organise paperwork, accessories and household essentials while adding an attractive furniture piece that complements the rest of the home.

  • Multi-Drawer Storage

    If organisation is important to you, choosing a multi-drawer chest of drawers can make everyday life considerably easier. Having several drawers allows you to separate clothing into categories, making it quicker to find what you need while keeping everything neat and tidy.


    Many customers dedicate individual drawers to knitwear, underwear, accessories, sportswear, seasonal clothing, children's clothing or spare bedding. This organised approach not only helps maximise storage but also makes wardrobes less overcrowded and bedrooms easier to maintain.

  • Choosing the Right Style

    Your chest of drawers should complement the overall style of your bedroom. Natural oak and wooden finishes create warmth and timeless appeal, while painted furniture introduces softness and works beautifully in country and contemporary homes. Black finishes add contrast and sophistication, while Scandinavian-inspired designs with clean lines create a calm, uncluttered aesthetic.


    Rather than matching every piece exactly, consider coordinating finishes and materials throughout the room. Combining complementary bedside tables, wardrobes and dressing tables creates a more relaxed, professionally styled interior that feels collected over time.

  • Think About Your Future Storage Needs

    When investing in bedroom furniture, it's worth thinking beyond your immediate requirements. Clothing collections often grow, and your storage needs may change over time. Choosing a chest of drawers with slightly more capacity than you currently need can provide valuable flexibility without requiring additional furniture in the future.


    A well-chosen chest of drawers is an investment you'll use every day. By balancing storage capacity, room size, style and practicality, you'll create a bedroom that's not only beautifully furnished but also organised, functional and designed around your everyday lifestyle.

Room Inspiration

A beautifully designed chest of drawers is one of the most versatile pieces of furniture in any home. While traditionally found in bedrooms, drawer units can also provide stylish storage in dressing rooms, hallways, guest rooms and even home offices.


Whether you're looking to maximise storage in a compact space or create a statement feature in a larger room, the right chest of drawers helps keep your home organised while adding warmth and character to your interior.

  • Master Bedrooms

    A large chest of drawers can become the focal point of a master bedroom, combining generous storage with timeless style. Wide drawer units provide ample space for clothing, bedding, accessories and seasonal items while helping to keep wardrobes free from unnecessary clutter.


    The spacious top surface offers endless styling opportunities. Position a table lamp at one end to create soft ambient lighting, place a large bedroom mirror above to reflect natural light and make the room feel more spacious, then finish with artwork, candles, fresh flowers or decorative accessories to create a calm and luxurious atmosphere. Choosing a chest of drawers that complements your bedside tables and wardrobe will help create a coordinated bedroom that feels elegant, balanced and relaxing.

  • Guest Bedrooms

    A compact chest of drawers provides welcome storage for visitors without overwhelming the room. Even a smaller drawer unit allows guests to unpack clothing, store personal belongings and feel more at home during their stay.


    Create a welcoming retreat by pairing your chest with a bedside table, comfortable lighting, neutral bedding and soft furnishings. Fresh flowers, a framed print and a small tray for personal items add thoughtful finishing touches that make guests feel genuinely welcome.

  • Children's Bedrooms

    A chest of drawers for a child's bedroom helps keep clothing, toys, books and school essentials organised while encouraging tidy habits from an early age. Choosing a design with multiple drawers makes it easier to separate everyday clothing, school uniforms, sportswear, seasonal items and accessories, helping both parents and children find what they need more quickly.


    Neutral finishes offer long-term flexibility as your child grows, while durable construction ensures your furniture remains practical for years to come. Pair with storage baskets, shelving and wardrobes to create a bedroom that's functional, organised and adaptable to changing needs.

  • Dressing Rooms

    If you're fortunate enough to have a dedicated dressing room, a wide chest of drawers provides essential storage while creating a stylish dressing area. Store folded clothing, accessories and jewellery neatly out of sight while using the generous top surface to display perfume bottles, candles, decorative trays and fresh flowers.


    Complete the space with a full-length mirror, upholstered stool and carefully positioned lighting to create a luxurious dressing area that's both practical and beautifully styled.

  • Hallways & Landing Areas

    A narrow chest of drawers isn't just for bedrooms. It can provide valuable storage in hallways, upstairs landings and entrance areas where extra organisation is needed without taking up excessive floor space.


    Use drawers to store household essentials such as keys, paperwork, scarves, gloves or everyday accessories, while styling the top with a table lamp, wall mirror, decorative bowl and seasonal flowers. This creates an attractive feature that keeps clutter hidden while making your home feel more organised and welcoming.

  • Smaller Bedrooms & Apartments

    In many UK homes, making the most of limited space is essential. A tall or compact chest of drawers provides excellent storage without dominating the room, making it ideal for apartments, smaller bedrooms and period properties where floor space may be limited.


    Lighter finishes such as oak, painted furniture or Scandinavian-inspired designs help smaller rooms feel brighter and more spacious, while thoughtful organisation inside each drawer maximises every centimetre of available storage. Choosing multifunctional furniture allows you to create a bedroom that's both stylish and highly practical without compromising on comfort.

Create a Beautifully Organised Bedroom

No matter which room you're furnishing, a well-chosen chest of drawers offers the perfect combination of storage and style. Pair your drawer unit with complementary bedside tables, wardrobes, bedroom mirrors, table lamps, handmade lampshades and carefully chosen décor to create a cohesive interior that's designed around the way you live.


Whether your style is contemporary, Scandinavian, country or classic, investing in quality bedroom furniture helps create a home that's beautifully organised, welcoming and built to stand the test of time.

How to Style a Chest of Drawers

  • A chest of drawers provides one of the easiest opportunities to introduce personality into your bedroom. Start by placing a table lamp at one end to create warm ambient lighting before adding a wall mirror or statement artwork above the furniture to create height and balance.


    Layer decorative objects such as ceramic vases, candles, books and small plants using varying heights and textures. Leaving some empty space between accessories prevents the display from feeling cluttered while allowing each piece to stand out.


    Seasonal styling is another simple way to refresh your bedroom throughout the year. Fresh flowers and lighter accessories work beautifully during spring and summer, while warmer lighting, lanterns and textured ceramics create a cosy atmosphere throughout autumn and winter.

Chest of Drawers Size Guide

  • Choosing the Right Size Chest of Drawers

    Choosing the right chest of drawers is about finding furniture that provides enough storage while fitting comfortably within your room. Taking a few simple measurements before ordering will help ensure your new furniture looks perfectly proportioned and functions well for everyday living.

  • Width

    A wider chest offers generous storage and creates an attractive focal point within larger bedrooms. Aim to leave approximately 20–30cm of space either side of the furniture where possible, helping the room feel balanced rather than overcrowded.

  • Height

    Tallboy chests maximise vertical storage while occupying very little floor space, making them ideal for compact bedrooms. Lower, wider drawer units provide an excellent surface for styling with mirrors, lamps and decorative accessories.

  • Depth

    Always consider how far drawers extend when fully opened. Leave enough clearance between your chest of drawers and beds, wardrobes or opposite walls to ensure comfortable everyday use.

  • Storage Requirements

    Think about what you'll be storing before choosing your furniture. Larger drawers are ideal for knitwear and bedding, while narrower drawers help organise accessories, underwear and smaller clothing items.

  • Before You Buy

    Measure your room carefully and don't forget to check doorways, staircases, landings and tight corners before ordering. Also allow for skirting boards, radiators and window sills that could affect positioning.

Materials & Finishes

  • Which Finish is Right for Your Bedroom?

    The finish of your chest of drawers has a significant impact on both the appearance and atmosphere of your bedroom. Beyond colour alone, different materials and finishes influence how your furniture reflects natural light, complements your existing décor and stands up to everyday use.


    Whether you're furnishing a contemporary apartment, a traditional family home or a cosy cottage, selecting the right finish helps create a bedroom that feels balanced, practical and beautifully coordinated. Consider your room size, available natural light and the furniture you already own before making your choice.

Oak Chest of Drawers

An oak chest of drawers remains one of the most popular choices for UK homes thanks to its durability, natural beauty and timeless appeal. The distinctive wood grain introduces warmth, texture and character, making oak furniture suitable for almost every interior style, from traditional country homes to contemporary new builds.


Oak works particularly well alongside neutral walls, soft textiles and natural flooring, creating a calm and inviting bedroom that won't go out of fashion. It also ages beautifully over time, developing additional character with everyday use. Pair an oak chest with matching oak bedside tables, wardrobes or a dressing table for a cohesive look, or mix it with painted furniture to create a more relaxed and layered interior.

Painted Chest of Drawers

A painted chest of drawers offers a softer, more versatile alternative to natural wood while introducing subtle colour into your bedroom. Shades such as white, cream, sage green, taupe and warm grey create a light, airy feel that works beautifully in both classic and contemporary homes.

Painted furniture is particularly effective in smaller bedrooms, where lighter finishes help maximise natural light and create the illusion of more space. It also pairs effortlessly with natural wood flooring, woven textures, upholstered headboards and soft furnishings, making it easy to refresh your décor as trends evolve without replacing your furniture.

Contemporary Finishes

For modern homes, contemporary chest of drawers combine clean lines, matt finishes and understated hardware to create furniture that's both elegant and functional. Minimalist styling allows these designs to blend seamlessly into contemporary interiors while providing practical storage that doesn't overwhelm the room.

Black accents, soft matt surfaces and simple silhouettes create a sophisticated look that's ideal for modern apartments and newly built homes. Complete the room with statement lighting, oversized artwork and textured accessories to add warmth and personality while maintaining a clean, uncluttered aesthetic.

French-Inspired Designs

If you prefer timeless elegance, French-inspired chest of drawers bring classic craftsmanship and refined detailing into the bedroom. Gentle curves, decorative mouldings, panelled fronts and beautifully shaped legs create furniture that feels sophisticated without being overly ornate.

These designs complement period properties, Georgian and Victorian homes, as well as modern interiors looking to introduce a touch of classic charm. Pair with upholstered beds, antique-style mirrors, soft lighting and luxurious fabrics such as linen or velvet to create a bedroom that feels warm, graceful and effortlessly inviting.

Scandinavian-Inspired Furniture

Scandinavian chest of drawers celebrate simplicity, functionality and natural materials. Characterised by light oak finishes, clean lines and minimalist styling, they create calm, uncluttered spaces that feel bright and relaxing.

This style is particularly well suited to smaller UK bedrooms, where lighter furniture helps reflect natural light and enhances the feeling of space. Combine Scandinavian furniture with neutral colour palettes, natural linen, soft wool textures and indoor plants to create a peaceful retreat inspired by Nordic living.

Mixed Materials & Textured Finishes

Many contemporary chest of drawers combine natural wood with painted surfaces, metal handles or textured drawer fronts to create a more distinctive appearance. These mixed-material designs add depth and visual interest while remaining versatile enough to suit a wide range of interiors.

Combining different finishes throughout your bedroom often creates a more natural and professionally styled look than matching every piece exactly. For example, an oak chest of drawers paired with painted bedside tables or black metal lighting introduces subtle contrast while maintaining a cohesive overall design.

Choosing the Right Finish for Your Home

  • When selecting your chest of drawers, think about how the furniture will work with your room over the long term. Lighter finishes such as oak and painted furniture help smaller bedrooms feel brighter and more spacious, while darker finishes introduce depth and create a striking focal point in larger rooms.

    Rather than focusing solely on colour, consider texture, durability and the atmosphere you'd like to create. Whether your style is modern, country, Scandinavian or classic, choosing high-quality bedroom furniture in a finish that complements your home will ensure your chest of drawers remains a practical and stylish investment for years to come.
