Onesies. Socks. Sweatsuits. Blankets. The list of items that live in our nursery and kids’ bedrooms are endless, and never stop growing. Keeping that in mind, owning a reliable and spacious piece of furniture to store all of these items is essential. And not just a piece of furniture that can store these items, but also a storage solution that is aesthetically pleasing and can elevate the overall look and feel of your nursery or kids’ bedroom. That's why a reliable 6-drawer dresser isn't just essential for storage and organizing—it's an investment into keeping your child’s room tidy and organized throughout all of childhood’s many stages and phases. From onesies, pacifiers, and diapers in the newborn stage to jeans, hoodies, and books in the toddler stage, selecting the right 6-drawer dresser for your child’s room is important, as it will serve your family for years to come.
So, which 6-drawer dresser is the right choice for your nursery or kids’ room? Let's take a closer look at some options, and dive into why a six drawer dresser is a must-have for your bedroom.
Why Invest in a 6 Drawer Dresser?
A 6-drawer dresser isn’t just for storing things—it’s about having one piece of furniture to keep your room tidy, organize all of your nursery or kids’ room essentials, and do even more—like keeping things on display (think, picture frames, books, trophies, etc.) or having a safe surface to place your diaper changing pad on. Here’s why a six drawer dresser is a smart choice for your nursery or kids’ bedroom:
-
Lots of space: With six drawers, you will have one piece of furniture to keep your clothes, blankets, bedding, socks, and other items (diapers, pacifiers, and more) neatly organized.
-
Fits any style: Whether you choose a black 6 drawer dresser for a moody vibe or a white 6 drawer dresser for a neutral, timeless vibe, there’s a 6 drawer dresser that can fit seamlessly into the nursery stage and grow into toddlerhood and beyond.
-
Perfect size: It’s big enough to hold your essentials but not so large that it takes up too much space.
Now that we’ve discussed the benefits of adding a six drawer dresser to your space, let’s discuss the various 6 drawer dressers that you can choose from to elevate your nursery or kids’ room.
Types of 6 Drawer Dressers
Laminate Dressers
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly, cost-effective solution, a laminate 6 drawer dresser may be the right choice for you. A laminate dresser is crafted of wood composites, and is laminated in a durable, easy-to-clean, PU-coated surface. While a laminate six drawer dresser may not be crafted of solid wood, it is still a sturdy and reliable option. And, laminate 6 drawer dressers from Storkcraft are all GREENGUARD Gold Certified—meaning, they’ve been screened for more than 10,000 chemicals and VOCs known to pollute indoor air.

Wooden Dressers
If you’re looking for a sturdy, reliable six drawer dresser that will last throughout all of childhood’s stages (and beyond), look no further than at a wooden 6 drawer dresser. A wooden 6 drawer dresser is crafted of solid wood framing, and gives you that classic feel of sturdiness and craftsmanship. Sure, it costs a bit more than laminate, but it’s an investment into a piece of furniture that will serve your family for many years to come. If you’re looking at wooden 6 drawer dressers from Storkcraft, their applied finish has been tested to meet or exceed all applicable ASTM and CPSIA safety standards, and they’re all GREENGUARD Gold Certified—meaning, they’ve been screened for more than 10,000 chemicals and VOCs known to pollute indoor air.

For a classic, stylish wooden six drawer dresser, check out the Graco Teddi 6 Drawer Dresser—which also comes with two sets of knobs (one painted, one “driftwood”) for the ultimate touch of personalization.
Styles of 6 Drawer Dressers
Once you’ve assessed your budget and your needs, and decided whether a wooden or laminate six drawer dresser is the right choice for you, you can ask yourself about style:

From Graco, we’d recommend the Graco Teddi 6 Drawer Dresser. From Storkcraft, we’d recommend the Storkcraft Moss 6 Drawer Dresser or Storkcraft Avalon 6 Drawer Dresser.

Why It’s Worth the Investment
A good 6 drawer dresser isn’t just a piece of furniture—it’s the central place in your nursery or kids’ bedroom that stores and organizes all of your child’s clothes, bedding, and essentials. We recommend investing in a six drawer dresser that will last throughout all of childhood’s many stages and phases because, as your child grows, you will accumulate much more (and larger) stuff. A sturdy and reliable 6 drawer dresser is also a convenient place for you to take advantage of having a surface to safely change your baby on with a diaper changing pad, and later on storing things like books, trophies, storage bins, and more.
Final Thoughts
Let’s be honest: childhood is messy, but your bedroom doesn’t have to be. A 6-drawer dresser is one of those furniture pieces that works hard without drawing too much attention, while keeping your room organized, tidy, neat, and looking great. Whether you prefer a black 6 drawer dresser or white 6 drawer dresser, a wooden six drawer dresser or laminate six drawer dresser, there are many options for a 6 drawer chest dresser for your family available.
