Ok, I have asked and I may be the only one... or there is another issue I don't know about...

My Storage Chest, Oaken....

My Empty Storage Chest, Oaken... please note it shows 1 item in the chest (1/60)

I put 1 item in the chest, please note it now shows 2/60 items
Is there a way to hide items in a chest or do I need to return this one and get one that has all 60 slots open?
Of all the things I have lost, I miss my mind the most...
