Harris Bedside Table - Oak

The Harris Bedside Table measures 50cm wide and 40cm deep, so a gap of at least 55cm between the bed frame and the wall leaves room to open the drawers without knocking the mattress. Measure the clear floor width rather than the mattress width, because bed frames often overhang. Below 50cm the unit will not sit flat against the wall.

At 52cm tall, the Harris bedside table sits close to the top of a standard mattress on a mid-height base, which puts a lamp or glass of water within reach while lying down. Measure from the floor to the top of your mattress first. If that figure is well above 60cm, the tabletop will sit lower than you may want.

Two drawers on the Harris Bedside Table hold what you reach for at night — books, chargers, medication, glasses and small personal items — while the 50cm by 40cm top stays clear for a lamp and clock. Splitting contents across two drawers means you are not digging through one deep box every evening.

The Harris Bedside Table is built from MDF with a wood-look melamine finish over an 18mm thick top board. Melamine wipes clean with a damp cloth, which matters on a bedside surface that collects drink rings and dust. The oak tone matches the rest of the Harris range if you add a tallboy or low boy later.

One carton measuring 73cm x 44.5cm x 15.5cm and weighing 17kg carries the whole Harris Bedside Table. That is flat enough for a car boot and light enough for two people to take upstairs. Assembly is required, so allow floor space alongside the carton and set aside time before you need the table in use.

One Harris Wooden Bedside Table is supplied per order. Furnishing both sides of a bed means ordering two units. Because the Harris range is listed as individual pieces, you can match the 50cm wide bedside table with other Harris items over time rather than committing to a full set up front.
