The chest of drawers is judged by the floor it takes and the drawers it gives back. This one stands 87 cm tall and 139 cm wide, which is compact for the storage, but each drawer wants 48 cm of clear floor to open properly.

What the tape measure says

Measure once, then move things.

This is the 139 × 48 × 87 cm chest of 6 drawers. Leave 48 cm of floor in front for an open drawer, and check that a skirting board does not hold the back of the frame away from the wall.

The ANKARUDDEN comes in 2 sizes in this catalog, 80 to 139 cm wide. The room plans, clearances and care notes are written once for the family, so they are not repeated here.

Against the chest of 4 drawers at 80 × 48 × 107 cm, this one is 59 cm wider and 20 cm lower, which is the difference that decides whether it fits the gap you measured. At 139 × 48 cm it covers 0.67 square metres of floor, and at 87 cm tall it reads as close to square in the room.

Wipe with a damp cloth and dry straight away. Keep the runners free of dust, and spread the weight rather than filling one drawer to the top.
