Rosecliff Heights
$84.99 $106.99
Perfect For: An aesthetically pleasing bathroom shelf display
What We Like: The combination of open and closed storage compartments
Not So Good For: Tall objects, like a hairspray can
Crafted from manufactured wood, this linen cabinet delivers a relatively high quality for its price. It takes on a clean-lined, vertical design with three easily accessible shelves at the top. Down below, two drawers are accented with cut-out handles and beaded shaker fronts—adding an inviting touch while also coming in handy for storing items that you want hidden away. Lastly, it comes complete with anti-tip hardware for your safety.
Designer Advice:
The good news is that its crisp white finish will match any colored wall and decorating scheme. The tricky part, though, is creating a visually interesting display on the open shelves. Keep the look fresh and airy by arranging a mix of bathroom products and decor pieces (say, body lotions, potted plants, candles, and rolled towels) in groups of three.
What Users Say:
As expected! It keeps all my things neatly, now my sink counter is free of clutter!

Wayfair Basics®
$127.99 $269
Perfect For: Tight utility rooms, kitchens, garages, and craft rooms
What We Like: Simple and unfussy design
What We Don’t Like: A little wobbly on its own and must be anchored to the wall
Here, we have a seamless blend of modern style and classic functionality. The cabinet, despite being made of manufactured wood, is fairly sturdy once assembled. But best of all, it has a slim profile of only 15.5 inches wide yet is surprisingly roomy. It features one fixed shelf at the top and three adjustable shelves at the bottom, allowing for a personalized layout. Besides, it’s available in white, black, natural, and gray.
Designer Advice:
Thanks to its clean look, this piece will work anywhere you need it, no matter the room’s aesthetic. For example, it would look right at home in a kitchen with sleek, frameless cabinetry. Then again, it would be the perfect addition to a farmhouse-inspired laundry room - especially the natural-toned one. Either way, there’s nothing like concealed storage to keep visual clutter at bay.
What Users Say:
This cabinet was a perfect fit for our little kitchen. It looks small, but in reality, it has a lot of storage room.

There are countless cabinet sizes, designs, and styles, but our long-time favorite is a tall, narrow storage cabinet. Cabinetry is a key element in any room- even in offices! Custom-made tall, narrow storage cabinets come in any style and size. But, if you want to find out first what your options are when it comes to tall, narrow storage cabinets, keep on reading as we'll give you all the info you need that can enhance your cabinet shopping experience.
- Stock cabinets, some of the most common units you'll find as you search for a tall, narrow storage cabinet, are the most affordable. They're excellent if your budget is tight. They're also available in all home improvement stores both online and offline. Although they're affordable, you'll find that they can be hard to blend into a home's aesthetics. That’s not the case, of course, if there's a unit readily available that's made to be perfect for your specific needs.
- Semi-custom cabinets are the ones that are built as soon as you make an order. Tall, narrow storage cabinets that are semi-customized come in all styles. The flexibility they offer makes it easier for homeowners to design rooms that fit their particular requirements. Although they're incredibly pleasing to look at and work with, their delivery time is longer and they're more expensive compared to stock tall, narrow storage cabinets.
- Custom cabinets are considered by interior designers as a godsend for a good reason: they're built by hand to fit any standard required by the buyer. You may have an available space inside your home or office that's oddly-sized or irregularly shaped. With custom cabinets, that won't be a problem! A custom tall, narrow storage cabinet is made from scratch. But, it's also the most expensive. Also, the time it will take for you to make use of your new cabinet will depend on the schedule of the cabinetmaker that you hire.
There are pros and cons to both kinds of tall, narrow storage cabinets. Below are the general considerations you need to take into account:
- RTA or Ready-to-Assemble cabinets are the ones packed in space-saving boxes. They are easier to transport and ship. Also, they cost less compared to fully assembled tall, narrow storage cabinetry. The downside of buying an RTA is the fact that you'll be assembling and installing the fixture yourself.
- Fully Assembled Cabinets are units that can be installed the instant they arrive on your doorstep. They also require less effort and time, but they are more expensive. Preassembled tall, narrow storage cabinets are available in almost all home improvement stores, but you need large vehicle/s to accommodate them. You can also have them delivered, but that will entail another expense on your end.
These are just some of the important aspects you need to consider when choosing between tall, narrow storage cabinets. Now that you know the considerations you need to take into account, you're already a step closer to finding the right cabinetry for your space. What are you waiting for? Head to the stores now!
