Maxton Place Gray Chest

Yes, this vertical chest is specifically designed to maximize storage on a minimal footprint. Measuring 36 inches wide and 51 inches high, it utilizes vertical wall space rather than taking up precious floor area. This makes it an ideal choice for city dwellers or smaller suburban bedrooms where a wide dresser might obstruct walkways or feel too bulky.

This piece is engineered with premium construction signals, most notably front and back English dovetail joinery on all five drawers. Dovetailing is a time-tested technique where interlocking wood joints create a superior bond, preventing drawer fronts from pulling apart over time. Additionally, the drawers utilize undermounted metal glides, which provide a smoother, more stable opening experience compared to traditional side-mounted or plastic tracks.

The metallic bar and knob pulls, paired with the metallic base, provide a contemporary "industrial" edge that bridges the gap between modern and transitional styles. This mixed-material approach is not only an aesthetic choice but also offers a high-contrast look that complements the calming gray finish, making it easier to coordinate with both dark and light bedroom accents.

In regions with high humidity, such as coastal areas, wood materials can be sensitive to moisture fluctuations. Based on our furniture care expertise, we recommend maintaining a consistent indoor temperature and avoiding placement directly in front of AC vents or in path of direct sunlight. For cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth for regular dusting and a slightly damp cloth with mild soap for spots, ensuring the surface is dried immediately to protect the gray finish.

Safety is a priority, especially with vertical storage pieces like this 51-inch tall chest. To prevent accidental tip-overs, we strongly recommend anchoring this unit to the wall using the included anti-tip kit. This is a critical safety measure for all households, particularly those with children or pets, to ensure the chest remains stable even when multiple drawers are extended.

With five spacious drawers and a 17-inch total depth, this chest is designed for versatile organization. The deeper drawers are well-suited for bulky seasonal items like heavy sweaters and denim, while the top drawers provide convenient access for daily essentials like undergarments and accessories. The English dovetail construction ensures these drawers can handle the weight of a full wardrobe without sagging or losing alignment.
