A side table is a small product, but it has a major impact on daily comfort.
It supports bedside storage, keeps essentials within reach, and completes the
bedroom or living corner. Qdot Living side tables are designed to be simple,
coordinated, and easy to match with other modern Pakistani homes.
This guide helps customers choose between side table designs based on bed
height, storage need, room size, and styling preference.
Quick Guide: How to Choose a Side Table
- Measure the height of the bed or sofa next to which the side table will be placed.
- Choose the design based on storage needs: minimal, drawers, or open shelf.
- Keep enough walking clearance around the bed and wardrobe doors.
- Select one side table for compact rooms and a pair of side tables for a balanced master bedroom look.
- Use open shelf designs where quick access and visual lightness are important.
- Use drawers when chargers, medicines, books, glasses, or personal items need to stay hidden.
- Match the side table with Qdot Living beds, dressers, wardrobes, and chest drawers for a coordinated room.

Side Table Size and Height Guide
The most important side table measurement is height. A side table should
normally be close to the mattress height or slightly lower so that customers
can easily reach lamps, phones, books, and water glasses.

| Height |
Choose a side table close to mattress height. |

| Width |
Compact widths work for smaller rooms; wider designs give more storage and surface space. |
Allow filter by width if multiple sizes are introduced. |
| Depth |
Depth should not block movement near the bed or sofa. |
Mention depth clearly for narrow rooms and apartments. |

Use matching left and right side tables for a balanced room. |
