About the Merton 3 x 3 Drawer Chest of Drawers
Last checked
For buyers who prefer separated storage over one large drawer bank, the Merton is a chest of drawers organised as a 3 x 3 grid, so its defining feature is compartmentalisation rather than sheer drawer depth. Nine fronts make sorting easier. The layout is sensible, but conservative. In furniture terms, a nine-drawer grid gives more organisation than a standard three- or four-drawer chest, yet it is less efficient for large folded adult clothing than a deeper, wider chest in the same bedroom-furniture tier because each drawer opening is divided into smaller compartments. That trade-off matters if the chest is expected to replace wardrobe shelving rather than simply supplement it. The bottom drawer draws the clearest practical praise, with repeated appreciation for the extra depth when storing bulkier jumpers, while the upper drawers appear better suited to smaller folded items. Its strongest composition case is as part of a coordinated bedroom set: one buyer matched it with Merton wardrobes, bedside furniture and another chest, while another used it at dressing-table height to make better use of an available gap.
For an adult furnishing a main bedroom, this is safest as overflow storage for folded tops, knitwear, underwear and smaller clothing categories, not as the only place for a full clothes rotation. Capacity is the main caution. Praise centres on the coordinated Kashmir finish, the tidy appearance and the useful divided layout, especially where the chest is being paired with matching bedroom furniture rather than asked to carry the whole storage load alone. The weaker feedback is specific enough to matter: the drawers can feel small for adult clothing, and one substantive complaint flagged two top drawers that did not run smoothly, although the replacement process was described as straightforward. Its style register is warm and conventional rather than minimalist or industrial, helped by the softened top detail noted in longer feedback, so it pairs most easily with upholstered beds and matching case goods rather than stark modern schemes. The Merton suits coordinated rooms needing divided storage for lighter folded clothes; those prioritising full adult-clothing capacity should look instead at larger, deeper chests in the next furniture tier.

Excellent. Love that the bottom drawer is deeper to take bulky jumpers.
We are very pleased with the item, plenty of room to store items/clothing…
Lovely looking drawers but quite small & not really big enough for an adult's clothes.
Perfect dressing table height, maximising storage and complementing the matching bedside tables. Gentle curvature of the tops give a warm feel to the room. Shop assistant in Truro Bensons was very helpful in finding the items that perfectly fitted into our available space. Unfortunately the 2 top drawers did not run smoothly but the procedure to get a replacement has been very straightforward.
Lovely chest of drawers. I already had the triple wardrobe, bedside cabinet & 6 drawer chest of drawers so wanted this to finish the look. Would highly recommend this furniture, looks fantastic. I have it in Kashmir, which is perfect.
