I can spend up to an hour organizing anything in my space, whether it’s the pantry, random cabinets and drawers, or my closet. As someone with a lot of clothing and not enough storage space, I needed a large dresser to replace my old one that just wasn’t serving me the way I needed it to. The Article Kouva Dresser ($1,399) caught my eye with its six spacious drawers. Plus, it’s wide enough to take up half a wall – that’s more than enough room for all of my clothing and accessories. Our editors love Article’s furniture, including the Kayra Bouclé Bed Frame, so I had high hopes regarding the quality of this piece right off the bat.
Ahead, you can read my in-depth review of the dresser and learn about the features that make it worth the investment.
What I Like About the Article Kouva Dresser
As someone who leans more modern when it comes to decor, I was immediately drawn to the Kouva dresser because of its vertical paneling across the drawers. The texture of the wood lends a dynamic touch to an otherwise minimalistic, Scandinavian-inspired piece. Once the Kouva dresser entered my bedroom, the natural tone of the oak instantly brightened the space.
Even though a dresser is primarily made for storage, I had no idea how much the tiny details would contribute to its quality. For starters, the soft-close drawers feel particularly elegant, and the anti-tip interlock prevents multiple drawers from opening at the same time (this being a problem I had with my old dresser). I also love that the dresser has built-in ergonomic wooden handles that are easy to grasp and blend in seamlessly, so I don’t have to worry about added hardware matching the rest of my space.
What to Consider Before Trying the Article Kouva Dresser
Although the Kouva dresser has spacious drawers, they are on the shallower side. I can fold three pairs of jeans and stack them as shown above; four if I really squeeze them in. But, if you prefer the KonMari method – with your folded clothing lined up vertically – the drawer won’t be able to close, especially with thicker items like jeans and sweatshirts.
Who Is the Article Kouva Dresser Best For?
The Kouva dresser is ideal for those who need ample storage space in their bedroom. I find it especially useful for organizing foldable clothing like PJs, undergarments, jeans, loungewear, and workout clothes, as well as more seasonal apparel like swimwear and socks, gloves, and scarves. With its Scandinavian-inspired design, this dresser is a versatile piece that can complement any bedroom decor, whether it’s boho, contemporary, minimalist, or midcentury modern.
