Description
The Devon 5 Drawer Chest of Drawers in Charcoal gives you five roomy drawers for everyday storage, topped with a warm oak-effect surface that sits against the dark charcoal grey body. Turned metal knobs and a plinth base finish the look. Measuring 790mm wide, 395mm deep and 1119mm tall, this chest of drawers holds a good amount without taking over the room, and the five drawers keep clothes, linen and odds and ends sorted by category.
This piece works well as bedroom drawers, giving you space for folded jumpers, socks and layers within easy reach. The height suits a spot beside a wardrobe or under a window, and the top has room for a lamp, a tray or a few framed photos. It suits homes that lean towards a calm, modern look, and the charcoal body pairs happily with pale walls, natural wood and soft bedding. It would also earn its place in a hallway or living room where you need tidy, closed storage.
The body is finished in a matt charcoal grey paint, while the top carries an oak-effect finish rather than solid oak, so you get the warm grain look without the upkeep. It arrives flat packed in one box with an assembled weight of 41.7kg, so self assembly is required. To care for it, wipe with a soft, dry cloth and clean up spills quickly to protect the finish. Avoid harsh cleaners and standing water. For styling, keep the top simple with one taller object and one low one, then let the contrast between the oak-effect top and charcoal drawers do the rest.

Frequently Asked
Is the top made from real oak?
No. The top carries an oak-effect finish rather than solid oak. It gives you the warm look and grain of wood tones against the charcoal body, without the care that solid timber needs. The main body is finished in a matt painted charcoal grey.
How should I clean and care for it?
Wipe the surfaces with a soft, dry cloth to keep them looking their best. Deal with any spills quickly and avoid leaving standing water on the top. Skip harsh or abrasive cleaners, as these can mark the painted and oak-effect finishes over time.
Does it come assembled?
No, it is flat packed in one box and needs self assembly at home. The chest weighs 41.7kg once built, so it helps to have a second person on hand and a clear, flat space to work in while you put the drawers and plinth base together.
Will it fit in a small bedroom?
At 790mm wide and 395mm deep, it holds five drawers without a large footprint, so it works well as bedroom drawers in tighter spaces. The 1119mm height suits a spot beside a wardrobe or under a window where you still want a usable top surface.
What can I keep in the drawers?
The five drawers suit folded clothes such as jumpers, tops and layers, along with socks, accessories and general odds and ends. Using each drawer for a category keeps things easy to find. It also works in a hallway or living room for closed, tidy storage.
