I have bookcases, storage containers and dressers. I have a stand up dresser and a long dresser that I put a big retangular ironing board on it. I have a hard time going through the drawers as opposed to bookcases and a storage unit. I forget about the drawers. I would much rather have a bookcase with doors any day. The dressers are nice, tho. They hold lots of fabric. Probably more than my bookcases.
