The best height for your bedside table is about the same height as your mattress or slightly higher, between 2 and 4 inches. This height makes it easy to reach items on the table while you're in bed. Creates a look between your bed and nightstand that enhances the overall style of your bedroom. It's advised to avoid differences in height; having a nightstand that is more than 6 inches above or below your mattress can disrupt the visual harmony and functionality of your bedroom setup. Selecting the height for your nightstand can greatly enhance both the appearance and convenience of your sleeping space.
