Not just a convenient place to put your alarm clock and mobile phone, many of our bedside tables and nightstands come with additional drawers underneath. So, if you're limited on underbed storage, a bedside cabinet could be a great option for you. Choose from bedside tables with 1, 2 and 3 drawers and fuse style with function in your bedroom. A bedside table with a drawer provides you with a place to pop your bedtime reading material and a handy bedside drawer you can use to keep your bedroom sides clutter-free. Or, why not explore bedside tables with open front shelving – perfect for keeping bedtime reading close-at-hand. Bedside tables on either side of a bed whether that's a double bed or a super king bed, gives your bedroom a finished feel instantly.
Ever brought a hot drink to bed, enjoyed a few sips, and then had nowhere to put it? Life without a bedside table can make these little moments more of a chore than a treat!
A bedroom isn’t the same without a bedside table or cabinet – not having a place to put things when you’re in bed certainly makes life a lot less convenient. A bed table or bedside cabinet is the perfect place to rest a cup of tea, a stack of books, or an alarm clock – although if you’re prone to hitting the snooze button, putting your alarm on the other side of the room might be best!
A bedside table is also handy to put a retainer, contact lenses, or dentures – anything you want to remember to wear when you wake up, or before you go to bed. Putting your medication on a bed table can make it easier to remember taking it as part of your morning or night routine, too.
After enjoying a book in bed, the worst thing is having to get up out of your warm covers – after you’ve just gotten comfortable – to put it back on the shelf. Eliminate this problem with a bedside table.
Another name for a bedside table, the origin of the word nightstand is thought to have derived from its purpose as a stand placed next to the bed, to hold things during the night. Kind of like a small coffee table by your bed, nightstands can also be referred to as night tables.
White nightstand? Black nightstand? Wooden, with drawers? Choosing the right nightstand or bedside table comes down to your preferred design aesthetic. For a cosy, cottage-style feel, wooden bed side tables are ideal. The natural materials make for a warm and welcoming bedroom. Decorated with beautiful bedside table lamps, even a small bedside table will take pride of place.
If you prefer a more contemporary bedroom décor theme, a mirrored bedside table will add an element of luxury to your space. Mirrors instantly make a room feel bigger, by distributing light, mirrored bedside cabinets will make your bedroom feel lighter and more spacious. And for anyone in pursuit of a truly glamorous feel, glass bedside tables boast those wow qualities you’re looking for.
An oak bedside table is also a great starting point if you aren't certain on your décor yet. Generally, neutral shades blend seamlessly with any theme.
If monochromatic or contemporary minimalist bedroom design sounds more like you, you’ll need a black bedside table to bring the drama. Or a white bedside table to brighten up your sleep space.
Seasons and styles change, and a plain white or black nightstand is a perfect base which will allow you to easily redesign your bedroom as and when you want to.

When it comes to choosing a bedside nightstand that fits with your bedroom décor, there are a number of things you’ll need to think about.
First of all, what will you use your bedside tables for? Is it just a surface to rest your current bedtime reading material, a lamp and your trusted alarm clock on? Or do you require some more versatile storage? If you plan on keeping items you’d prefer to store out of sight in your bedside units, you might prefer a 2- or 3-drawer design. Or perhaps some shelves hidden behind a cupboard door is more of an ideal for you?
Next, think about how much space you have available. Wide bedside drawers might help to bridge unwanted gaps whereas a narrow bedside table could fit in even the tightest of spaces. Our bedside tables start at just 39cm wide and increase right up to 60cm so there’s a solution for every space on offer.
Design preferences will then come into play. Would you prefer an upholstered, fabric bedside table? Or is a classic wooden bedside table more your cup of tea? We also have some fabulously modern wood and glass bedside tables to consider. Whatever your vibe for your bedroom, we’ve got some great bedside options to tie in with your design preferences at Bensons.
