chests of drawers
Tall storage furniture
Chests of drawers is the standard plural of chest of drawers—a piece of furniture with stacked horizontal drawers for storing clothing or linens.
The plural applies to the chest, not the drawers: The moving truck held three chests of drawers.
Some speakers say chest of drawers for both singular and plural, and the informal *dresser* often substitutes.
