Rank #4 in Best Chest of Drawers 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Depth Figures That Don't Add Up
Vida Designs Corona 5-Drawer Pine Chest
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Vida Designs Corona is a five-drawer chest in solid distressed waxed pine, listed at £109.99 and rated 4.0 out of 5 from 1,272 ratings. It takes fourth place in our guide to chests of drawers, and it is one of the cheapest solid-wood chests on that list; the listing gives no assembly time, no warranty and no drawer runners by name, just the size, the wood and the brand.
What earns it a place here is the measurement problem. The same listing states the depth twice: the product bullet and the size field both say D 40 cm ("H 90 x W 80 x D 40 cm Approx." and "40D x 80W x 90H cm"), while the Item Depth field in the specification table says 30.5 cm — a 9.5 cm gap on the one dimension that decides whether a chest sits flush to the wall or juts into the room. The listing also files it under Room Type: Living Room, though its own category rank is 111 in Bedroom Chest of Drawers. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing for this product; we have not measured, assembled or tested the chest ourselves.
