Clayten 10-Drawer Dresser | Acme Furniture
Our Clayten 10-drawer dresser anchors your bedroom with generous storage and timeless design. Ten spacious drawers organize everything from folded sweaters to accessories, while the solid wood frame ensures decades of daily use.
We built the Clayten collection for modern homes that value craftsmanship without sacrificing clean lines. The dresser’s low-profile design fits beautifully in master bedrooms and guest suites alike, pairing effortlessly with our Clayten bed frame and nightstands. Each drawer features full-extension metal glides that pull smoothly even when fully loaded, and English dovetail joinery on the drawer boxes resists wear over time.
Construction & storage details
Materials & Construction
We craft the Clayten 10-drawer dresser from solid rubberwood harvested from sustainable plantations. The wood’s tight grain and natural durability make it ideal for furniture that sees daily use. Each frame joint uses mortise-and-tenon construction reinforced with wood glue and hardwood dowels.
The warm chestnut finish brings out the wood’s subtle grain patterns while protecting surfaces from moisture and scratches. We apply three coats of hand-rubbed lacquer, sanding between layers for a smooth, furniture-grade finish. Drawer boxes feature English dovetail joinery at all four corners — a traditional technique that creates mechanical locks stronger than nails or staples alone.
Drawer Organization & Capacity
The Clayten dresser’s 10 drawers organize clothing and accessories across three graduated tiers. The top two shallow drawers (each 4 inches deep) feature soft felt lining perfect for jewelry, watches, and undergarments. Six mid-height drawers (7 inches deep) accommodate folded t-shirts, sweaters, jeans, and workout gear. The bottom two drawers offer 9 inches of depth for bulkier items like sweatshirts, blankets, or off-season clothing.
Drawer Dimensions
Each top drawer provides 26 inches of usable width and 14 inches of front-to-back depth. Middle and bottom drawers span the dresser’s full 56-inch interior width with the same 14-inch depth. Total storage volume exceeds 28 cubic feet — enough capacity to consolidate two smaller dressers into one streamlined piece.
Dimensions & Room Placement
At 60 inches wide, 18 inches deep, and 36 inches tall, the Clayten dresser fits comfortably along most bedroom walls without overwhelming the space. The shallow 18-inch depth leaves ample floor space for walking paths and allows the dresser to sit beneath windows with standard 36-inch sills.
We recommend leaving at least 30 inches of clearance in front of the dresser for drawer operation and comfortable access. The low 36-inch height means you can mount a matching Clayten wall mirror above without creating a top-heavy visual weight.

Clayten Dresser Questions
The Clayten dresser features 10 drawers arranged in three tiers.

The Clayten 10-drawer dresser measures 60 inches wide, 18 inches deep, and 36 inches tall. The shallow 18-inch depth makes it ideal for placement beneath windows or in narrower bedrooms where you need to preserve walking space.
We recommend leaving at least 30 inches of clearance in front of the dresser so drawers can fully extend. The unit weighs 185 pounds empty and ships in two separate boxes for easier handling during delivery.

The warm chestnut finish consists of three hand-rubbed lacquer coats that protect the wood while showcasing its natural grain. This solid wood construction ensures the dresser will serve your family for decades with proper care.
Assembly requires basic skills and takes 90-120 minutes with two people. The drawer boxes arrive fully assembled — you’ll attach legs, secure frame panels, and install drawer glides using a Phillips screwdriver and the included hex key.
Our illustrated manual breaks the process into twelve numbered steps with pre-drilled holes and labeled hardware packs. Most customers complete assembly without issues, though professional installation is available through delivery services if you prefer expert setup.
Yes, the Clayten dresser’s solid wood top can safely support flat-screen TVs up to 65 inches and 75 pounds when properly centered. The 60-inch width provides stable placement for most bedroom televisions.
The dresser top sits 36 inches from the floor, which creates comfortable viewing height when watched from a standard bed. We recommend using felt pads beneath the TV stand to protect the lacquer finish from scratches.
Currently we craft the Clayten 10-drawer dresser exclusively in our signature chestnut finish. This warm brown tone complements most bedroom color schemes and coordinates with the full Clayten collection.

Each drawer’s ball-bearing glide system supports up to 75 pounds when properly installed. The solid wood drawer boxes themselves can handle significant weight, but we rate capacity based on the hardware’s tested limits.
In practical use, you’ll find the deeper bottom drawers easily accommodate heavy items like jeans, sweatshirts, and folded blankets without sagging or sticking. Distribute weight evenly across all 10 drawers rather than overloading individual compartments for best performance.
