Clayton Bedside Table with Drawer - White

16mm particle board with a melamine finish is listed for the white Clayton bedside table, giving a smooth surface that cleans easily. The unit weighs 11kg assembled: light, but the board thickness is what keeps the top rigid under a lamp. Avoid standing on it or using it as a step.

43cm wide by 40cm deep is the white Clayton footprint, so it slots into a bedside gap that a wider table cannot. It stands 55cm tall. Measure the gap between the bed and the wall, and leave clearance so the drawer front does not catch the bed frame when it slides out.

One drawer of 35cm x 35cm x 13cm internally sits above a cubby hole opening on the white Clayton. The drawer hides chargers, medication and small items; the cubby keeps a book or the remote in sight. That split means you are not opening a drawer for the thing you use most often.

White melamine over particle board is the finish on this Clayton bedside table, and melamine wipes clean with a damp cloth rather than absorbing spills the way an untreated surface would. A pale finish shows scuffs more clearly at the edges, so use a coaster under drinks and lift rather than drag it when moving.

12.5kg in a single 62cm x 46.2cm x 11.5cm carton, and 11kg once assembled, the white Clayton is the lightest piece in this bedroom group. One adult can carry the carton up a flight of stairs and move the finished table between rooms later without help. That flexibility suits a flat where the layout changes.

Simple assembly is how this Clayton bedside table is described: a small carcass, one drawer box and a cubby opening, rather than a bank of drawers. Lay the panels on a towel to protect the white melamine, follow the supplied instructions, and check the drawer slides square before putting anything into it.
