Where a four-drawer module works well
A compact drawer unit can help keep frequently used materials organised without taking up the space of a larger cabinet. Place one near a desk for stationery, notebooks and small work accessories, or use it in a shared workspace for supplies that need a consistent home. The drawers provide separated storage, while the narrow 41 cm width can be useful in layouts where larger storage furniture would restrict movement.
These modules are not designed as filing cabinets with hanging folders: neither model has hanging file frames, and the family has no shelves. If your storage plan depends on suspended files or open shelving, check whether another type of office storage would be more suitable.
How to choose between the Cube models
Check the available height
Both models share a 41 × 60 cm footprint, while the listed heights are 53 cm and 62 cm. Measure the intended position, including any clearance beneath a desk or counter. Also consider whether the unit needs to align visually or practically with nearby furniture. Confirm the height shown on the listing for the specific model you are considering.
Consider material, finish and access
The family is listed with metal cabinet construction and a cylinder lock. The 5168 description also notes laminated surfaces. Color options listed for the group are beige, black, green, grey and white; check the model listing to confirm which finishes are offered for that unit. A lock can be useful when access to stored items should be controlled, so consider who will use the drawers and where the key will be kept.
What to check before choosing
Think through what you plan to store, how often you need access, and whether four drawers suit the items better than shelves or hanging files. Measure the floor area and height available, then compare the model details, finish and color on the relevant listing. Myntwork offers these Cube Design products on a monthly lease, which can be considered when planning furniture for a changing workplace. Confirm the configuration you need before making a selection.
