Ten bedside tables sure to inspire some sweet dreams.

Though a great bed frame is obviously the hero of the bedroom, the humble nightstand plays a vital role as sidekick (or sidekicks, if you’re flanking the bed with a matching set). These side tables hold your alarm clock up high, play host to lamps and stow away your late-night reading material without a fuss. So don’t treat this important furniture item as an afterthought on your next bedroom makeover—invest in a little something special.
