Far as I can tell dresser is a subset of chest-of-drawers.

every site that claims to tell me the difference just has a bunch of statements like "a dresser/chest is usually/typically/often blah blah blah" but nothing definitive. seems like something that may at one time have been a distinction but in the real world means nothing.

A dresser is something you can sit at and get dressed. Some chests of drawers are too tall for that.

A dresser is about waist high, wider, and has a large mirror on it. A chest of drawers is at least 5ft tall and narrower.

You're welcome.

is the mirror required? I thought only grandparents have that.

seems like dressers are mostly landscape with multiple drawers per row while the chest is portrait and usually one column but this is more of a guideline than an actual rule.

A nightstand?

Hard to judge the height but I'd judge it as both a CoD and a dresser.

Muffins use muffin batter, cakes use cake batter, ipso facto.

Just got into a shouting match with some old geezer because he didn't put his shopping cart away. Cart space was literally 15 feet away!

Sigh

Wayfarers.

All sunglasses really, but especially wayfarers.

I'd also say straight brimmed hats but that **** should piss me off.
