Choosing the Perfect Bedroom Dresser: A Simple Buying Guide
A bedroom dresser is more than just a piece of furniture. It helps you organize your clothes. It also adds style to your room. This guide will help you pick the right one.
1. Key Features to Look For
When shopping, look closely at these important parts.
Drawer Functionality
Good drawers make a big difference. You want drawers that open and close smoothly. Test them in the store if you can. Look for full-extension glides. These let you see everything inside the drawer easily. Soft-close features are nice. They stop drawers from slamming shut.
Size and Capacity
Measure your space first. Know how wide, deep, and tall a dresser can be. Think about what you need to store. Do you have many bulky sweaters? You might need deeper drawers. Do you have lots of small items? A dresser with many smaller drawers works best.
Mirror Inclusion
Some dressers come with attached mirrors. This saves space. Decide if you want a separate mirror or one built-in. Built-in mirrors look neat but might limit where you place the dresser.
2. Important Materials Matter
The material affects how long the dresser lasts and how it looks.
- Solid Wood: This is the best choice. Wood like oak or maple is very strong. It lasts a long time. It usually costs more.
- Wood Veneer: This uses a thin layer of real wood glued onto cheaper wood (like particleboard). It looks nice but is less durable than solid wood.
- Engineered Wood (Particleboard/MDF): This is the most affordable option. It is made from wood fibers glued together. It is lighter but can break easily if it gets wet or is moved roughly.
3. Factors That Improve or Reduce Quality
Quality is often hidden inside the dresser.
Drawer Construction
The best drawers use “dovetail joints.” This joinery method locks the wood pieces together strongly. You often find this in high-quality furniture. Cheaper dressers use staples or glue. These joints break over time.
The Back Panel
A thick, solid wood back panel adds stability. Thin, flimsy cardboard backs mean the dresser might wobble. Make sure the back panel is screwed or nailed securely to the frame.
Finish and Hardware
The finish (paint or stain) should look smooth. Check the handles and knobs (hardware). Metal hardware lasts longer than plastic. Ensure the hardware is screwed on tightly.
4. User Experience and Use Cases
How you use the dresser shapes your choice.
For Small Bedrooms
Choose a tall, narrow dresser, often called a “lingerie chest” or “tallboy.” These use vertical space well. They take up less floor space.
For Large Bedrooms
A wide, low dresser (sometimes called a “double dresser”) offers lots of surface area. You can place lamps or decorations on top. It gives you maximum drawer space.
Safety First
Heavy dressers can tip over. This is dangerous, especially with small children around. Always look for included anti-tip kits. You must anchor the dresser to the wall. This simple step keeps everyone safe.
10 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Bedroom Dressers
Q: What is the standard height for a bedroom dresser?
A: Most standard dressers are between 30 and 36 inches tall. This height lets you easily reach the top drawers.
Q: Should I buy a dresser with a mirror?
A: It depends on your room. If you need a dedicated vanity area, yes. If you already have a wall mirror, skip the attached one to save money and space.
Q: How do I clean wood veneer furniture?
A: Wipe veneer surfaces gently with a soft, damp cloth. Never use harsh chemical cleaners. They can ruin the thin wood layer.
Q: What does “drawer glide” mean?
A: The drawer glide is the metal track system that lets the drawer slide in and out of the dresser frame smoothly.
Q: Are all dressers the same depth?
A: No. Standard depth is usually 18 to 20 inches. Shallow dressers might be only 15 inches deep, which is better for tight hallways.
Q: What is the heaviest material for a dresser?
A: Solid hardwood dressers, like those made from maple or cherry, are the heaviest and sturdiest.
Q: How do I stop my drawers from sticking?
A: Sometimes, humidity causes wood to swell. Try rubbing a bar of soap or a small candle along the sides of the drawer where it rubs against the frame.
Q: Is a chest of drawers the same as a dresser?
A: Mostly, yes. A “chest” usually refers to a tall, narrow unit. A “dresser” is usually wide and shorter, often having a mirror.
Q: Should I assemble the dresser myself?
A: Assembly difficulty varies. Flat-pack furniture requires a lot of time and tools. Pre-assembled furniture costs more but saves a lot of frustration.
Q: What is the best drawer liner to use?
A: Use non-slip, non-adhesive liner material. This protects the drawer wood and stops your folded clothes from sliding around when you open the drawer quickly.
