Bedside cabinets are a great place to store all your bedroom essentials. When I’m testing bedroom furniture, I always check how the top feels under my hand and whether there’s enough space for a lamp and a phone without it feeling cramped. But if you don’t have a bedside cabinet, you can still create a space for your essentials by using your nightstand as extra storage space.
If you’re looking for more storage space, consider adding a bedside cabinet. Just be aware that some of the slimmer ones don’t actually hold much beyond a couple of books and chargers, so it’s worth checking the internal dimensions.
A bedside cabinet is a small, freestanding piece of furniture that you place next to your bed. It’s usually made of wood or metal and has open shelves on the sides or doors on the front. I tend to give the drawer a quick pull and a wobble test, because cheaper runners can feel a bit rough and some cabinets can rock slightly on carpet. You can use it to store books, decorative items, electronics and other bedroom bits.
Bedside cabinets are the unsung heroes of your bedroom. They’re the last thing you see before you go to sleep and the first thing you see when you wake up, so they need to be well-decorated. That said, open shelves can look messy fast if you’ve got lots of cables and clutter, so a door or drawer can be the better shout for some people.
