Best Hemnes Storage Cabinet: 5 Picks Compared
As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. Details
A storage cabinet takes real room, so the size should settle the shortlist before the finish does. This guide compares five cabinets that are very different in shape: a small floor cabinet, a tall lockable utility cabinet, a very narrow cabinet, a two-door two-drawer cabinet and a corner cabinet. All figures come from the Amazon listings, and where a listing leaves a fact out, this guide says so.
Quick answer
For a small floor cabinet in a bathroom or entry, start with the Homhedy at 11.8 in D x 23.6 in W x 31.5 in H. For height, the Sterilite 4-shelf cabinet stands 69.38 in tall and is described as lockable. For a thin gap, the 9.8 in wide cabinet is only 7.9 in deep. The TEENFON has 2 doors and 2 drawers but its listing gives no dimensions. The HOOBRO is the only one built for a 90-degree corner, at 66.1 in tall. Tall cabinets should be secured with the anti-tip hardware and instructions that come with them.

Buying checklist
- Measure the wall or floor space, then compare it with the width and depth in each listing. Example: a gap narrower than 23.6 in rules out the Homhedy and the Sterilite, while the 9.8 in cabinet (9.8 in W) and the HOOBRO (15.7 in W) can still fit.
- Check height next: 31.5 in for the Homhedy, 30.9 in for the narrow cabinet, 66.1 in for the HOOBRO and 69.38 in for the Sterilite.
- Leave room for doors and drawers to open. The Sterilite is also the deepest, at 18.88 in.
- Mark any missing fact as a question for the seller, such as the TEENFON size or any weight limit.
- Anchor tall furniture. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission warns that unsecured furniture can tip, especially when children climb, so use anti-tip hardware and follow the maker’s instructions (see the CPSC Anchor It guidance).

Frequently asked questions
What should I check first on a storage cabinet?
Check that the footprint fits the space you measured, for example 11.8 in D x 23.6 in W x 31.5 in H for the Homhedy. Then check the package contents and any stated load limit.
Which of these cabinets is the narrowest?
The 9.8 in wide cabinet, at 7.9 in D x 9.8 in W x 30.9 in H. The Sterilite is the widest at 25.63 in.
Which one is lockable?
Only the Sterilite 4-shelf cabinet is described as lockable in its title.
Do I need to anchor a tall cabinet?
Yes, follow the maker’s instructions. The HOOBRO package includes an anti-tip kit, and the Sterilite is 69.38 in tall, so it also needs securing as directed.
What if a listing does not give dimensions?
Treat the size as unknown. The TEENFON details used here give 2 doors, 2 drawers and a white color but no size, so confirm it on the product page before you clear a spot.
Which cabinet suits a corner?
The HOOBRO, which is shaped for a 90-degree corner and measures 15.7 in D x 15.7 in W x 66.1 in H. It is not meant for a flat wall.
Closing note
Choose the Homhedy when its 11.8 in D x 23.6 in W x 31.5 in H suits your space. Move to the narrow cabinet for a thin gap, the Sterilite for height and a lock, or the HOOBRO for a corner. Do not buy on features alone, and do not guess a missing size or load limit.
