If you invest in a good modern dresser, you\u2019ll be able to use it for decades. Yes, decades! But like anything else for your home, there are lots of dresser styles to choose from, a broad range of quality to navigate and frankly, some mystery around why some dressers are $250 and others are $2500. Today we\u2019re pulling back the curtain to explain what goes into making a <a href=\"https:\/\/go.roomandboard.com\/CZDC00\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">high-quality dresser<\/a> and why it\u2019s a good plan to spend more\u2014and get more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.roomandboard.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/emerson_284676_19e-1024x733.jpg\" alt=\"Detail of Emerson nine-drawer dresser.\" class=\"wp-image-6218\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/go.roomandboard.com\/DAY3cd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shop Emerson dressers<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-goes-into-a-high-quality-dresser\">What Goes Into a High-quality Dresser?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Two things define a fine piece of furniture: materials and craftsmanship. The quality of the wood and hardware play a big part in the overall quality\u2014and cost\u2014of a dresser. Our woods have names you\u2019ll recognize from the trees in your yard: walnut, cherry, maple and ash. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;re on a mission to achieve 100% sustainably sourced wood by 2025, for our dressers and all of our products. Right now, 95% of our wood, including for our dressers, is sustainably sourced. Learn more about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.roomandboard.com\/blog\/2024\/05\/our-approach-to-wood-sourcing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">our approach to wood sourcing<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.roomandboard.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/kenwood_drawer_W1_d1_18-1024x791.jpg\" alt=\"Detail of Kenwood 42-wide Three-Drawer Dresser in Walnut.\" class=\"wp-image-6209\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Our ball-bearing drawer glides open and close smoothly time after time.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hardware-made-easy\">Hardware Made Easy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hardware, including hidden elements such as drawer glides, makes a big difference in how well a dresser holds up over the years. Our ball-bearing glides are designed to roll smoothly through daily use, unlike plastic or thin metal glides that can crack or warp over time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.roomandboard.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/caperton_facility_17e-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"A woodworker signs a finished piece under a Room &amp; Board woodburned logo,\" class=\"wp-image-6207\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>American craft sets our dressers apart.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-art-of-dresser-making\">The Art of Dresser-making<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to choosing between an artisan-crafted wood dresser and a flat-pack version you need to assemble, the difference is night and day. Flat-pack furniture is made to save space for shipping, using hardware, materials and joinery that are less durable. That&#8217;s why you don&#8217;t see vintage flat-pack furniture. Note that not all fully assembled furniture is of high quality; some companies simply pre-assemble flat-pack furniture then send it to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We take a different approach. Experienced woodworkers in the U.S. build all our dressers from scratch. They use top-notch materials, time-tested handcraft techniques and the latest technology to ensure durability and reliability. High-quality wood, first-rate hardware and strong joinery goes into every design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bottom line: craftsmanship is the difference between a dresser meant to last a few years versus a lifetime.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"838\" height=\"559\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roomandboard.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/hudson_819050_20e.jpg\" alt=\"Hudson queen bed, dresser and nightstand in white oak.

Our dressers have clean lines and a modern-but-classic look. This means they\u2019ll easily blend with your personal style even as your tastes change and design trends come and go. Simplicity always looks good.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, consider the piece\u2019s size. Most dressers tuck into a bedroom, but they can also play nicely at the end of a hallway for linen storage or in an entryway to stash hats and gloves. We offer a wide range of dresser sizes so you can choose one that works for the proportions of your room and how much storage you need. A 50\u201370\u2033 wide dresser is usually ideal for a bedroom, while a 30\u201340\u2033 wide option is perfect for a hallway, entryway or even as a nightstand.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roomandboard.com\/catalog\/bedroom\/dressers\/kenwood-dressers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.roomandboard.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/kenwood_385406_21e-1024x688.jpg\" alt=\"Bedroom area with Kenwood 42-wide dresser in walnut with black marbled ceramic top and graphite pulls.\" class=\"wp-image-6208\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/go.roomandboard.com\/COQtbT\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shop Kenwood dressers<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Investing in a well-made piece means, in the long run, you also have the flexibility to use it anywhere in the house.
