Care & styling tips for your large chest of drawers
With the right care and styling, your chest of drawers can last for years. Here are some of our top tips:
- Clean gently: Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals to preserve finishes and materials.
- Avoid overloading: Distribute weight evenly in drawers for smooth operations and to prevent damage.
- Protecting the surface: Use mats or felt pads under decor items that can scratch the surface.
- Style it intentionally: Add a mirror or artwork above for a cohesive look. Top it with a plant, a lamp, or a little tray to hold everyday essentials.
- Anchor for safety: Always attach your chest of drawers to the wall using the included anti-tip brackets. It’s fast, easy, and safe, especially in homes with families.
The large cabinet can double as a stylish statement piece, too. Rely on different handles, baskets, or textures around it to create a layered and cosy atmosphere in your space.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
1. What dimensions define a large vs huge chest of drawers?
IKEA defines a large chest of drawers as one that is normally in the range of 80–120 cm high, with a width of about 100–160 cm, and at least 4–6 deep drawers. Anything bigger, usually with more width or modular extension, might come under “extra-large” or “wide storage” headings.
2. What is the typical drawer load capacity for large chests?
Large chest of drawers in our product line are tested to hold around 10–15 kgs per drawer, depending on the model and material used. We encourage you to always check the details of the product for specifications to ensure safe use and long-lasting performance.
3. Are anti-tip wall brackets included and required for big units?
Yes, every large chest of drawers comes with anti-tip safety fittings, and we strongly recommend securing the unit to the wall. It's a small step that greatly improves safety, especially in homes with children.
4. Which materials are best for heavy loads?
Solid wood, particleboard with reinforced frames, and fiberboard with high-density coatings are ideal. Our HEMNES (solid pine) and IDANÄS (fiberboard with durable foil finish) collections are excellent for handling heavier loads while maintaining a beautiful aesthetic.
5. Do full-extension, soft-close runners come standard on large chests?
Smooth-running, soft-close drawers are standard in many of our modern collections like IDANÄS and SONGESAND. In other series, such as MALM, sturdy runners come standard but an upgrade is optional.
6. Can I use a large chest of drawers in rooms other than bedrooms?
Large chests are versatile enough to be used in living rooms, dining, and hallways. Use them to store media, linens, or household accessories and bring balance into your home visually.
