u look in the mirror u saw what u saw (you smash the mirror and get a big shard of glass and that is your 'saw' and u saw through the dresser) 2 halfs equals a hole in the wall!

I don't know if that's the answer to the riddle but it's mathematical and I I love it.

You look in the dresser to find a shovel. You use the shovel to dig your way out,

or

You take the mirror off the wall to find a hole big enough to fit you through that leads you to either the outside, or a room with a door...That is unlocked...

LOL I have the best(imo) solution ever!!!

You just said "do u get out."

So, I assume that you are in the dresser. Just step out!

I guess the room could also have no ceiling...

but emanon13's solution is excellent

Actually, all he said was that there were no windows or doors. He didn't say you were prevented in any way from leaving. There could be no walls for all you know.
