I've lived in my fair share of small spaces, so I know a thing or two about decorating with a size constraint. It can be tricky to find furniture that actually fits your space without sacrificing looks or function. That's why this viral Amazon nightstand is such a standout – not only is it practical for small spaces, but it's stylish, too.
You see, this nightstand is uniquely narrow – measuring just under 8" in width. Despite its small size, it's an incredibly helpful small bedroom idea. It can conveniently slide between a bed and a wall, and although it takes up minimal space, it can hold lots of nighttime necessities both on its top surface and in its drawers. Not to mention, its open shelf features outlet holes to keep cords organized.
It's no wonder this nightstand has gone viral on TikTok – it boasts all the necessary qualities of a regular nightstand and takes up half the space. While it's certainly an ideal choice for a small bedroom, its style and convenience could easily benefit a room of any size.
Size: 15.74"D x 7.87"W x 19.68"H
Made from high-quality solid wood, this nightstand ensures durability and elegant style. It features two pull out drawers, with the bottom drawer slightly larger than the middle. Its top shelf conveniently slides out to reveal cord organizer holes. This nightstand ships pre-assembled except for its foot pillars, which are easy to attach.
Although shown here in brown, this nightstand is also available in white, and if you need a slightly larger size, it's made in a 12" width as well. It can also be made with an integrated charging station on its top surface if you desire a high-tech bedside table.
Aside from my praise, reviewers rave about this nightstand, too. 'This thing is amazing in that it is very narrow and fits where most other end tables would not, and yet, it’s highly functional with 2 drawers, a slide out shelf, and a top surface that has a rim which prevents things from falling off,' one reviewer wrote. 'This is a perfect piece for a small space next to your bed.'
Another reviewer commented on the quality of this nightstand, admiring its craftsmanship. 'The wood is beautifully finished and the drawers work very well,' they wrote. 'I especially like the top pull out drawer which really makes this very useful.'
That said, don't let the wrong nightstand become a small bedroom layout mistake. This compact and clever choice from Amazon can save space in your bedroom and benefit the room's overall design.
If you've got more than 8" of space, but still on the hunt for a small nightstand, I have found a couple more practical, but beautiful options.
Size: 9" H x 15.7" W x 12.5" D
If your bedroom has minimal floor space, it might be a good idea to mount a bedside table to the wall. This option is sleek, simple, and because it's wall-mounted, it appears to be floating. Its soft-close drawer minimizes sound and can store books or other bedside essentials. Plus, this nightstand features an integrated cable hole for convenient phone charging. Consider this nightstand an ideal space-saving solution.
Size: 23.5" H x 12.5" W x 16" D
This nightstand is more than just an elegant option. With a built-in charging station that can hold up to three plugs and two USB cords, it's a highly practical choice, too. The two drawers are spacious and elegantly accented with gold hardware, while the top surface is protected with elevated edges to prevent anything from falling off. It's sold by itself or in a set of two, and aside from white, it comes in rustic brown and black.
Size: 24.5" H x 12" W x 23.5" D
If you want to create a symmetrical look with end tables in your bedroom, but are stricken with minimal space, this set of two is for you. Each table measures only 12" in width, meaning they can conveniently slide on either side of your bed without taking up too much space. These tables are simple and elegant by design – they feature two open shelves on the bottom and a pull out drawer on top. Since these tables aren't bedroom-specific, they could certainly benefit a small living room, too.
These compact nightstands can act as the finishing touch in a bedroom. If you want to learn how to make the most of their presence, find our designer-approved tips on how to style a nightstand to meet your needs.
