Nightstand FAQ

Nightstands might seem like simple furniture pieces, but getting the height, storage, and style right can make a big difference in your bedroom's functionality and appearance. From sizing guidelines to decorating tips, here's what you need to know to choose the perfect bedside companion.

How tall should a nightstand be?

Your nightstand should be roughly the same height as your mattress top, or within 2-4 inches above or below for comfortable reach. This height allows easy access to items like your phone, water, or lamp without straining when you're lying in bed. Ashley offers nightstands in various heights to accommodate different bed frames and mattress thicknesses for optimal bedroom functionality.

What are lights on nightstands called?

Lights on nightstands are commonly called table lamps, bedside lamps, or nightstand lamps depending on their specific design and function. These lamps provide task lighting for reading in bed and ambient lighting for your bedroom without using overhead fixtures. Ashley offers coordinating table lamps designed to complement their nightstand and bedside tables collections for a cohesive bedroom look.

How to decorate a nightstand?

Start with essentials like a table lamp and alarm clock, then add one or two decorative items like a small plant or picture frame. Keep the surface functional by leaving space for daily items like your phone, water glass, or book while maintaining a clean look. Ashley nightstands often feature drawers that help you store clutter and keep the top surface organized for decorating.

Where to buy nightstands?

Ashley Furniture offers a wide selection of nightstands both in their retail stores and online with convenient delivery options. You can browse their collection of bedside tables in various styles from traditional to modern nightstand designs, finishes, and storage configurations including 1 drawer, 2 drawer, and 3 drawer options that coordinate with their bedroom furniture sets for a cohesive look throughout your space.

What is a nightstand?

A nightstand is essentially a small bedside table that serves both functional and decorative purposes in your bedroom. It provides a surface for your lamp and personal items while offering storage space for things you want to keep private or organized. Ashley designs these bedside tables to complement their bed frames and dressers for coordinated bedroom styling.

What size lamp for nightstand?

The ideal nightstand lamp height ranges from 22-28 inches total, with the bottom of the lampshade sitting at or slightly above eye level when you're sitting in bed. This positioning provides optimal task lighting for reading without creating glare or shadows that interfere with your comfort. Ashley table lamps are designed with bedroom functionality and proper proportions in mind.

What to keep in nightstand?

Store items you reach for regularly like your phone charger, glasses, current book, and any medications you take at bedtime. Keep a water bottle, tissues, and hand cream easily accessible for night time comfort and convenience throughout the evening. Ashley nightstands provide organized storage space to keep these essentials within arm's reach while maintaining a tidy bedroom appearance.

Do nightstands have to match?

Nightstands don't have to match perfectly, but they should coordinate in some way like similar height, style, or color for visual balance. Many people prefer matching nightstands for a clean, symmetrical look, while others mix different pieces that share common elements like pairing a modern nightstand with a complementary traditional piece. Ashley offers both matching nightstand sets and individual pieces that coordinate well together for flexible bedroom styling options.
