I use this small chest as a nightstand (the bed in the picture is about 26" high), and it is absolutely perfect for me.  The shelves glide smoothly and give plenty of bedside storage.  The wood is slightly less red than it looks in the pictures, but I think it looks great.

My only complaint is that the manufactured wood on the bottom of the shelves feels very thin.  It's fine for holding socks/underwear/etc, but I would not trust these shelves to hold any heavy objects such as large books.  The overall frame and top surface are thick solid wood, which I would feel comfortable standing on.
