The chest of drawers earns its place when the shelves suit what you keep. At 67 cm wide and 66 cm tall it needs a section of wall rather than a whole one, and 48 cm of depth decides whether it holds hardbacks, boxes or only light objects.

A practical room-planning note

What to check before you order.

This is the 67 × 48 × 66 cm drawer unit on castors. A unit this height can stand on its own, but a wall fixing is still worth planning. Leave a few centimetres above it for lifting it upright and for any ceiling trim.

The ALEX comes in 3 sizes in this catalog, 36 to 67 cm wide. The room plans, clearances and care notes are written once for the family, so they are not repeated here.

Against the drawer unit on castors at 36 × 58 × 76 cm, this one is 31 cm wider, 10 cm shallower and 10 cm lower, which is the difference that decides whether it fits the gap you measured. At 67 × 48 cm it covers 0.32 square metres of floor, and at 66 cm tall it reads as close to square in the room.

Dust with a dry cloth and wipe marks with a damp cloth and mild soap. Keep the unit out of standing water and away from radiators.
