DRESSERS AND CHANGING TABLES

These are not the same thing? A changing table has certain features that a dresser does not have, such as raised sides and a safety strap, but you can convert a regular dresser by securely attaching a changing pad. Make sure it’s a comfortable height for you; most changing tables start at 90cm (about as tall as a kitchen counter). If shopping in a store, you should be able to bend comfortably over it.
