Best Tall Sideboard Cabinet
As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.
A tall sideboard cabinet is a closed storage unit with doors, shelves and enough height to fill an empty wall or the space beside a fridge, a bathroom sink or a dining area. The four listings below are the closest matches in this group, and they are not all true sideboards. Only the REHOOPEX is listed as a sideboard buffet, and it stands 31.3 inches tall. The other three are tall cabinets, each between 66.9 and 67 inches high, that suit the same storage job in a bathroom, a pantry or a hallway. Each option is described only with the facts its listing supplies, so you can match the height and load limits to your wall.
Quick answer
- For a low buffet that works as a sideboard, the REHOOPEX black cabinet is the only listing that calls itself a sideboard in its bullets. It measures 30.3 inches wide, 14.6 inches deep and 31.3 inches tall.
- For a tall unit with a four-door front and a rattan look, the JASIWAY pantry cabinet is listed at 67 inches tall and 22.83 inches wide, with three shelves and anti-tip devices.
- For a slim tall cabinet with two doors and a drawer, the Homhedy is 11.8 inches deep and 15.7 inches wide, with an anti-tip kit included.
- For a narrow cabinet with a light strip, the VASAGLE forest green cabinet is 11.8 inches square at its base and 66.9 inches tall, with an anti-tip kit.
Sideboard or tall cabinet: decide the job first
People searching for a tall sideboard cabinet usually want one of two things. Some want a low, wide buffet for a dining room, with room for serving dishes and a top surface. Others want a tall, narrow cabinet that stores more than a sideboard can, such as towels, cleaning supplies or pantry goods. The two solve different problems, so decide which one you need before you compare sizes. If the wall is tall and the room is narrow, a tall cabinet usually makes better use of the space. If the room has a dining table nearby, a lower buffet may suit it better.
The listings in this group sit on both sides of that line. The REHOOPEX is written as a sideboard buffet and works as a console or a storage cabinet, while the other three are written as tall storage cabinets for bathrooms, kitchens, hallways and living rooms. Read the room type and the recommended uses before you buy, because the listings use the same words for different jobs.
Sizing and fit compared
The table below uses the dimensions and load figures from each listing. A value marked “not stated” means the listing does not give that detail.
| Listing | Width | Depth | Height | Doors | Shelves | Load figure in listing |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| REHOOPEX black storage cabinet | 30.3 in | 14.6 in | 31.3 in | 2 | 2 storage levels | Top capacity 100 lbs in bullets; spec field reads 65 pounds maximum |
| JASIWAY rattan pantry cabinet | 22.83 in | 15 in | 67 in | 4 | 3 | 100 pounds maximum |
| Homhedy tall storage cabinet | 15.7 in | 11.8 in | 66.9 in | 2 | 2 | 44 pounds per shelf (maximum) |
| VASAGLE tall storage cabinet | 11.8 in | 11.8 in | 66.9 in | 2 | 6 | 132 pounds maximum |
The widths are the most useful number for a tight wall. The VASAGLE and the Homhedy are the two narrowest, and both suit a hallway or the side of a bathroom vanity. The JASIWAY is the widest tall option, while the REHOOPEX is the widest overall and the only one that is low. Check the depth too: the REHOOPEX is 14.6 inches deep, which is deeper than the Homhedy and the VASAGLE, and it may stick out from a wall more than you expect.
Materials and build
All four are built mainly from wood-based board or a wood-look finish. The REHOOPEX bullets describe solid 15 mm MDF with a waterproof surface and metal soft hinges, plus polished gold handles. Its specs list the material as engineered wood, so the two descriptions do not match exactly. The Homhedy uses quality particleboard with waterproof feet. The JASIWAY is built from MDF board with a rattan look on the doors, and its listing describes the doors as rattan. The VASAGLE uses painted MDF, which the listing says is easy to wipe clean.
For a tall cabinet, the material matters less than the stability and the anchoring. Three of the four listings include an anti-tip device or kit, and the listings present it as a stability feature. Check whether the kit fits the wall you have before you assemble the unit.
Who each cabinet suits
The REHOOPEX suits a dining or living room that needs a low buffet with two doors and two storage levels. Its bullets say it can be used as a console table for a home office or as storage for books, shoes and bags. The listing gives a middle shelf capacity of 45 pounds and a bottom shelf capacity of 45 pounds, which is useful for heavier items such as small appliances.
The JASIWAY suits a kitchen, laundry room or dining area that needs a large, closed cabinet with a soft visual look. The four rattan doors hide what is inside, and the listing says the adjustable and removable shelves can hold dinnerware, glassware and towels.
The Homhedy suits a bathroom or a narrow hallway. Its listing describes two doors and a drawer, reversible doors and adjustable shelves, and it lists the shelf capacity at 44 pounds, which is a useful limit for towels and toiletries.
The VASAGLE suits a bathroom or a living room where you want the most height in the least width. The light strip turns on when the door opens, which helps you find items in a dim corner, and the top and bottom cabinets each have an adjustable shelf with five height options.
Mistakes to avoid
- Buying a sideboard for a tall wall. The REHOOPEX is 31.3 inches tall, which leaves a lot of wall above it.
- Trusting one weight figure. The REHOOPEX bullets give a top capacity of 100 pounds and a spec field of 65 pounds, so use the lower number until the seller confirms it.
- Skipping the anti-tip kit. The Homhedy, the VASAGLE and the JASIWAY each include an anti-tip device or kit, and the listings describe them as part of the stability design.
- Ignoring the door direction. The Homhedy and VASAGLE both list reversible doors, so decide which way you want them to open before assembly.
- Forgetting the depth. The REHOOPEX is 14.6 inches deep, which is deeper than the Homhedy and the VASAGLE and may crowd a walkway.
Roundup: four tall cabinets from the listing data
Each block below sets out the reason the cabinet may fit, using only what its listing states.
1. REHOOPEX Black Sideboard Storage Cabinet with Doors
This is the only listing in the group that calls itself a sideboard buffet. It is 30.3 inches wide, 14.6 inches deep and 31.3 inches tall, with two flat panel doors and two storage levels. The bullets describe solid MDF, a waterproof surface and metal soft hinges, and they say the gold handles are polished. The listing says the cabinet can be a sideboard buffet in a dining room or living room, a console table for a home office, or a TV stand. The specs list the wood type as MDF and the door style as flat panel. Assemble the doors using the hinge adjustment step in the instructions to avoid gaps between the doors.
2. Homhedy 67-Inch Tall Bathroom Storage Cabinet with Barn Doors
This slim unit measures 11.8 inches deep, 15.7 inches wide and 66.9 inches tall. The title mentions barn doors, but the door style field reads slab, so confirm the door type before you buy. The listing describes two doors and one drawer, reversible doors and adjustable interior shelves. Its product weight is 37.4 pounds, and the maximum load per shelf is 44 pounds. The bullets say the cabinet is made from quality particleboard with waterproof feet, and that an anti-tip kit is included to improve stability. The listing recommends it for towels, toiletries and kitchen utensils.
3. JASIWAY 67-Inch Rattan Pantry Cabinet with Doors
This is the widest tall unit in the group, at 22.83 inches wide, 15 inches deep and 67 inches tall. The listing describes four rattan doors on a freestanding MDF cabinet with three shelves. The shelves are adjustable and removable, and the listing describes the cabinet as water resistant. Its weight is 44 pounds and its maximum weight capacity is 100 pounds. The included anti-tip devices are part of the listing, along with an installation kit and instructions. The bullets name dinnerware, glassware, towels and essentials as typical contents, and the listing recommends it for a kitchen, bathroom, living room or office.
4. VASAGLE Tall Storage Cabinet with Lights, Forest Green
This is the narrowest unit in the group at its base, measuring 11.8 inches deep, 11.8 inches wide and 66.9 inches tall. The listing describes a light strip that turns on when the door opens and turns off when it closes. The doors can be set to open left or right, and each of the top and bottom cabinets has an adjustable shelf with five height options. The surface is painted MDF that the listing says is easy to wipe clean, and the package includes an anti-tip kit to attach the cabinet to the wall. The specs list a maximum weight capacity of 132 pounds and six shelves in total.
Review: the VASAGLE tall cabinet in depth
The VASAGLE is the best example in this group of a narrow tall cabinet that gives a lot of storage without taking much width. Its base is 11.8 inches square and its height is 66.9 inches, so it fits a narrow hallway wall or the side of a kitchen counter. The listing describes it for bathrooms, hallways and living rooms, which matches its size.
The interior is split into a top cabinet and a bottom cabinet. Each has an adjustable shelf with five height settings, so you can store tall bottles on one side and small boxes on the other. The listing says the adjustable shelves accommodate items of various sizes, and the specs list six shelves in total. That makes the unit flexible for a mixed set of items, although the listing does not say how many items each shelf holds.
The light strip is the detail that sets it apart. The listing says it turns on when the door opens and turns off when the door closes, which helps when you reach into a dim corner. The listing does not describe how the light is powered, so check the instructions before you plan an outlet near the unit.
The doors can be set to open left or right during assembly. That is useful if your wall or your room layout favors one side, and the listing treats it as a setup choice.
The construction is painted MDF, and the listing says the surface is easy to wipe clean. It includes an anti-tip kit for attaching the cabinet to the wall, which the listing presents as a stability and safety feature. The specs give a maximum weight capacity of 132 pounds, which is the highest figure among the tall units in this roundup. The listing does not state a warranty length, so ask the seller if that matters to you.
Two close alternatives help you compare. The Homhedy is almost the same height and is a little wider at 15.7 inches, with a drawer and reversible doors. The JASIWAY is much wider and has four doors, which suits a larger wall. For a narrow cabinet with doors that is more compact in height, the MAGINELS 5-cube storage cabinet is listed at 60 inches tall and 12 inches deep, though it is made of plastic and is not a wood cabinet.
FAQ
What is the difference between a sideboard and a tall cabinet?
A sideboard is usually a low, wide buffet for a dining room, with a top surface for serving. A tall cabinet is narrow and high, and stores items vertically. The REHOOPEX is the only listing in this group written as a sideboard, at 31.3 inches tall. The other three are tall cabinets at about 67 inches.
Do tall cabinets need to be anchored to the wall?
Three of the four listings include an anti-tip device or kit, and the listings describe it as a stability feature. The VASAGLE listing says the anti-tip kit attaches the cabinet to the wall. Use the kit that comes with your cabinet and follow the instructions for your wall type.
Can a tall cabinet hold heavy items?
Check the weight figure. The VASAGLE lists 132 pounds maximum, the JASIWAY lists 100 pounds, and the Homhedy lists 44 pounds per shelf. The REHOOPEX bullets say 45 pounds per shelf, while its spec field shows 65 pounds, so use the lower figure until confirmed. Keep heavy items on the lower shelves.
Which tall cabinet is best for a bathroom?
The Homhedy and the VASAGLE are both listed for bathrooms and are both narrow at about 12 to 16 inches wide. The Homhedy suits towels and toiletries, and the VASAGLE suits a bathroom where a light helps with dim storage.
Are the doors on these cabinets reversible?
The Homhedy and the VASAGLE list reversible doors, so you can choose the opening side. The REHOOPEX lists flat panel doors, and the listing does not mention reversing them. The JASIWAY lists rattan doors and does not mention reversing them.
Do these cabinets need assembly?
Yes. Each listing comes with instructions and hardware, and the REHOOPEX bullets note that the hinge adjustment is covered in a specific step. The JASIWAY listing says the hardware is labeled and the steps are easy to follow.
Bottom line
Choose the REHOOPEX if you want a low sideboard buffet for a dining or living room. Choose the JASIWAY if you need the widest tall cabinet with four doors and rattan styling. Choose the Homhedy for a slim cabinet with a drawer and reversible doors, or the VASAGLE if you want the most height in the narrowest base and a light that turns on with the door. In every tall case, use the anti-tip hardware and confirm the weight figure before you load it.
