Nightstands

Nightstands put everything you need within arm’s reach when you’re lying in bed. Whether it’s a cup of tea, a riveting novel, or your alarm clock; keep it conveniently close with a bedside table.

A small nightstand or bedside table is perfect if you simply need somewhere to place your phone. If you’d like enough space for bedside lamps, candles, plants or other decorative items – then you should be looking at bigger bedside tables with larger surfaces and maybe even storage space beneath. Another option is bedside cabinets, they have small cabinets or drawers where you can store additional items out of sight.

Whether your style is traditional or modern, bold or minimalistic – you'll find a nightstand that complements your bedroom furniture at IKEA Canada.

Bedside cabinets

A bedside cabinet resembles a bedside table, except it has drawers or a small cupboard door. These small cabinets allow for more storage than the traditional nightstand. A nightstand with discreet storage is great if you want to avoid cluttering the surface, or simply wish to keep something out of sight. Items you store away in the drawers or in display cabinets will also not gather dust in the same way they would on top of the nightstand. If dust is your enemy – keep things clean in a bedside cabinet!

Style and taste – a traditional or modern nightstand?

Practicalities aside, you’ll also want to choose a nightstand which suits your interior taste. A bedroom is a truly personal space where you can express your style freely – so it’s worth finding a bedside table that truly captures the look you wish to accentuate. A nightstand should look great beside your bed! Browse the IKEA selection for one that would look right at home in your own bedroom.

You’ll find that many of our bedside tables belong to different furniture series at IKEA. This makes it easy for you to find matching pieces of bedroom furniture for a more cohesive look. If you’re unsure which style to go for, you can always get inspired looking at our bedroom ideas
