A large bedside table is a generously sized bedroom storage unit placed beside the bed, designed to offer more surface space and more internal capacity than standard bedside tables. In simple terms, it’s a bigger, more functional nightstand used to hold lighting, essentials, décor and personal items — ideal for modern Australian bedrooms that favour spacious layouts and elevated design.
Here’s why Australians search for large bedside tables: they want the extra room, better styling opportunities and more practical storage without needing a full dresser. Large bedside tables usually measure 55–70cm wide, 55–65cm high and often include multiple drawers for optimal organisation.
Large bedside tables come in a wide mix of materials, styles and configurations, allowing each bedroom to feel curated and intentional.
A classic option. Loved for durability, warmth and timeless appeal.

Here’s a quick, practical guide for Australian shoppers:
Minimum 60cm clearance recommended
Ensure drawers can fully open
Consider door swings and bedhead depth
The main reason this matters: comfort.
Ideal height = level with or slightly above the mattress
Works best for easy access to lamps and essentials
Ask yourself:
Do I need drawers for hidden storage?
Do I want open shelving for décor?
Do I prefer a combination?
Timber → natural, durable, warm
High-gloss or matte → modern feel
Metal → industrial edge
Stone tops → luxury, scratch resistant
For large bedside tables, colour has a major visual impact.
White for airy and coastal rooms
Timber for warmth and texture
Black for depth and sophistication
Small finishes elevate the design:
Soft-close drawers
Brass or matte black hardware
Fluted timber fronts
Tapered or sculptural legs
