I ordered this changing dresser after I realized that my daughter's dresser was not tall enough to change her comfortably on her changing pad....Not to mention her dresser didn't have a spot for her changing pad so it would have been loose, which is not incredibly safe. This changing dresser has a specific nest for the changing pad and 4 large drawers to hold diapers, wipes, creams, etc. I am 5'4" and the height is perfect for me to change here. My fiancé is also 5'10" and he has no problems changing her either. This was a great buy for us and it matched her bedroom set perfectly. We plan to re-use it as something else or sell when she's not a baby anymore.
