What’s the difference between a closet and a wardrobe?

A walk-in or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/common-reach-closet-can-it-still-sparkle.htm">reach-in closet</a> connected to a bedroom often serves the same purpose as a wardrobe by primarily storing clothes and shoes.

Amazing! Our new closet system is so impressive. We were able to customize the layout which makes it so easy to organize. We had no idea how much wasted space we had with our original closet. It's like night and day.
