Bedside Tables and Nightstands
Elevate Your Bedroom with Elegant Bedside Tables
Bedside tables serve as the functional heart of bedroom organisation and bedroom decor. These compact storage solutions keep essentials within easy reach while you sleep. The right nightstand provides surface space for lamps, books, and personal items while offering concealed storage through drawers or shelves.
Our range includes bamboo and wooden bedside tables designed to complement different room sizes and interior styles. Bamboo options, such as our Bamboo Bedside Table with a Dark Wood finish, offer lightweight construction with natural grain patterns, making them ideal for contemporary or minimalist spaces. Wooden designs, such as our 2-drawer Wooden Bedside Table, offer a traditional appeal with sturdy construction, making them suitable for long-term use.
How to Select the Perfect Fit for Your Sleep Space
Height is a crucial factor when selecting a bedside table. The ideal height should align with the top of your mattress, typically between 55-65 cm for standard Australian bed heights. This positioning ensures comfortable access to items without awkward reaching or stretching.
Consider the width of your bed size. Tables should be proportional to prevent visual imbalance. Small bedside table designs work well for single beds or compact spaces, whilst wider options complement queen and king beds effectively and provide extra storage.
Storage needs vary between households. Our 3-drawer wooden bedside table offers maximum concealed storage for families, while single-drawer bamboo options cater to minimalist preferences. Open shelves work well for items you access regularly, such as books or decorative pieces, providing a convenient spot to place your reading book within reach.

FAQs
What Are Bedside Tables Used For?
Bedside tables provide convenient storage and surface space for items you need during sleep hours. They hold lamps, books, phones, glasses, medication, and other personal essentials within easy reach of your bed, helping you keep your essentials organised next to your bed.
Should Bedside Tables Be The Same Height As The Bed?
Bedside tables should align with the top of your mattress or sit slightly higher than it. This positioning ensures comfortable access without straining to reach items. The ideal height difference should not exceed 5cm above or below the mattress level.
How Wide Are Bedside Tables?
Most standard bedside tables measure approximately 40 cm in width, 30 cm in depth, and 40 cm in height. Small bedside designs suit single beds or compact spaces, whilst wider designs complement larger beds. Select a width that suits your bed size and room proportions to prevent cluttering your available space.
How High Should A Bedside Table Be?
For standard Australian bed heights, bedside tables should measure 55-65 cm in height. This height range ensures the table surface aligns with your mattress top, providing comfortable access to items while lying in bed.
Do Bedside Tables Have To Match?
Bedside tables don't need to match exactly, but they should complement each other in style, height, and proportions. Matching tables brings a sense of balance, while mixing coordinated styles can introduce visual variety to your bedroom.
Should Bedside Tables Be Lower Than The Bed?
Bedside tables should not be significantly lower than the top of your mattress. Tables more than 5 cm below mattress height create awkward reaching angles and appear visually unbalanced. Aim for tables at or slightly above mattress level.
Do Bedside Tables Have To Match The Wardrobe?
Bedside tables don't need to match your wardrobe exactly. Focus on complementary materials, colours, or styles that create a cohesive bedroom theme. Similar finishes or design elements can tie the pieces together without requiring an exact match to your existing decor.
What Bedside Tables Go With A Metal Bed?
Wooden and bamboo bedside tables complement metal bed frames effectively. The natural materials provide warmth and texture that balances the industrial feel of metal. Choose tables with clean lines that echo the bed's modern aesthetic.
