How Many Pieces Are in a Bedroom Set? What Does It Include?

Short answer: the standard contents of a bedroom set in Türkiye are 5 bodies: a bed with storage base, two bedside tables, a chest of drawers (with its mirror) and a pouffe. If the mirror is counted as a separate item the same set becomes 6 pieces; if the two bedside tables are written on one line it looks like 4 pieces. So the answer to "how many pieces" depends not on the contents but on how the seller counts. The wardrobe is outside this list; it is chosen separately by number of doors.

Before arguing about the number, look at the contents. The table below is the standard arrangement of bedroom sets sold at Selishome.

PieceQuantityFunction
Bed with storage base1Carries the mattress; a box base gives storage for seasonal duvets
Bedside table2On either side of the bed; lamp, phone
Chest of drawers1A drawer body: socks, underwear, jewellery
Chest mirror1Hung above the chest of drawers
Pouffe1Seating in front of the chest
WardrobeOptionalHanging clothes; the number of doors is decided separately

The chest of drawers, bedside table and dressing table are the three pieces most often confused. We separated out which you actually need in our article on bedside table, chest of drawers and dressing table.

Why is the "piece count" confusing?

You see two sets with identical contents in two places; one says "6 pieces", the other "9 pieces". The contents are the same, the counting differs. Look at these four points:

  • Are the bedside tables counted as one or two? On some lists it is "bedside table (2)" on one line, on others the left and right are separate items.
  • Is the mirror counted separately? On some models the chest and mirror are one item, on others the mirror is hung separately. In the second case the number goes up by one and the contents do not change.
  • Is the base included? "Bed with storage base" counts as one piece but contains the base. With a baseless bed the base is bought afterwards; that is a cost not visible on the list. We compared which suits you in storage bed or normal bed.
  • Is the wardrobe included? This is where the biggest difference appears. A "9 pieces" including a wardrobe and a "6 pieces" without one are not comparable.

A practical rule: read the list of bodies, not the piece count. What matters is not how many boxes arrive but which pieces of furniture will enter your room.

Why is the wardrobe not fixed within the set?

On most sets the wardrobe is sold separately; its width is chosen to the room's uninterrupted wall.
On most sets the wardrobe is sold separately; its width is chosen to the room's uninterrupted wall.

The wardrobe is the piece that varies most from room to room: in one home the wall is 180 cm, in another 320 cm; one has a flat wall, another needs to turn a corner. That is why sets build the wardrobe as modular; blocks of fixed width come together to make a wardrobe of whatever length you want.

What do the modules do?

  • 2-door hanging module: a full-width hanging rail; coats, jackets, dresses, shirts.
  • 2-door shelf module: horizontal shelves; jumpers, bags, bed linen and other folded items.
  • 2-door drawer module: the lower section has drawers; it does the job of a chest of drawers if you are not buying one.
  • 50 cm narrow module: a half block; it fills the gap when the wall is 250 rather than 200 cm.
  • Corner module: joins two walls in an L; useful when the wardrobe wall is short.

For hanging heights and shelf spacings see wardrobe dimensions and interior layout. The benefit of a modular build: you do not pay for a section you will not use, and the wardrobe sits against the wall with no gap.

4-door, 5-door and 6-door bedroom sets

The number of doors is really a measure of width. In the common arrangement a module is 2 doors and about 100 cm; as doors increase, the wardrobe lengthens.

DoorsApproximate widthWall neededWho it is enough for
4 doors~200 cm210 cm and overTwo people's everyday clothes; seasonal things go in the base
5 doors~250 cm260 cm and overRooms where 4 doors is not enough and 6 will not fit
6 doors~300 cm310 cm and overAll four seasons of clothes; homes with no separate dressing room

↔ Scroll the table sideways to see all of it.

The most common mistake is looking at the room's square metres instead of the wall length. In a 16 m² room the wardrobe wall can drop to 210 cm because of the window and door; a 6-door will not go there. Measure the wall first, then choose the number of doors. For the dimensions of the other pieces see the table in bedroom set dimensions.

Which piece can you leave out?

  • Chest of drawers: if there is no uninterrupted 150-165 cm on the opposite wall, dropping it and adding a drawer module to the wardrobe is more comfortable.
  • Pouffe: without the chest of drawers it has no function on its own.
  • The second bedside table: if one side of the bed is against a wall, it stands unused.
  • Mirror: if there is a full-length mirror in the room, the chest can be bought without one; we covered the care of mirrored and glazed surfaces in bedroom sets with glass.

Selishome sets are built on this logic: in models such as the Granada bedroom set the bed, bedside tables, chest of drawers and pouffe come as standard, while wardrobe modules, a corner module and different bed sizes are options. In the Pragma bedroom set, glazed, shelved and drawer modules are added separately. All the models are in the bedroom collection.

Five things to measure before buying a set

  • The clear length of the bed wall — the bed and two bedside tables must fit.
  • The clear length of the wardrobe wall — above the skirting board, up to the frames; the number of doors comes from this.
  • Ceiling height — if the body is assembled on the floor and lifted, it needs allowance.
  • Door opening allowance — a hinged door needs about 60 cm of clear space.
  • The way into the home — door, lift, stair turn.

What to look at instead of the piece count

  • Does the bed have a base, is it a box base, and what mattress size?
  • Are the chest of drawers and mirror included in the same item?
  • How many bedside tables, and do they have drawers?
  • Is the wardrobe included; if so, how many doors?
  • Can modules be added later in the same colour?

Frequently Asked Questions

How many pieces are in a bedroom set?

The standard contents are a bed with storage base, two bedside tables, a chest of drawers, a mirror and a pouffe. Depending on how it is counted that can be written as 4, 5 or 6 pieces; make your comparison by looking at the list of bodies.

How much space does a 6-door bedroom set take?

In the common arrangement a 6-door wardrobe is about 300 cm; for comfortable installation it needs around 310 cm of uninterrupted wall. If the wall is shorter, a 5-door, or a 4-door plus corner module, is more suitable.

If the wardrobe is not included, can I buy it later?

Yes. Wardrobe modules of the same model can be added later; as long as the model is in production the colour match is preserved. Ask for written confirmation before ordering.

Do I need two bedside tables?

No. If one side of the bed is against a wall, a single bedside table is a common choice; a second can be added later.
