Dressers

Solid-wood dressers with clear construction details, including drawer bottoms and back panels.

A wood front can conceal MDF or particleboard in the rest of a dresser.  We favor alternatives to those panels and consider finishes and adhesives alongside the wood.  Stable construction and proper anchoring are essential, especially where children may climb or pull on drawers.
