Mateo Wooden Bedside Table - White + Oak

The open shelf sits below two drawers on the Mateo bedside table and holds the things you reach for without opening a drawer: a current book, a folded throw, a charging tablet. Keeping those in view means the 51.5cm top stays clear for a lamp and a glass of water.

54cm is the height of the Mateo Wooden Bedside Table. Measure from the floor to the top of your mattress; a bedside top within about 10cm of that line falls comfortably to hand from lying down. Beds with a thick mattress or a base drawer often sit higher, so check rather than assume.

51.5cm wide by 40cm deep is the Mateo bedside table footprint, so it needs a little over half a metre between the bed and the wall. Add room for the drawers to pull clear. If your gap is under 50cm, a narrower bedside table will serve you better than squeezing this one in.

Wood is the listed material for the Mateo Wooden Bedside Table, finished in wood-look melamine in white and oak. Alloy handles sit on the drawer fronts and metal runners carry the drawers. Melamine takes a damp cloth, which matters on a bedside surface that collects hand cream, water rings and dust.

One carton of 60cm x 46.5cm x 16cm at 16.8kg holds the whole Mateo bedside table, and the assembled piece weighs 16kg. One adult can manage that up a flight of stairs. The carton is flat enough to lie across a car boot, so measure your boot opening if you plan to collect.

Assembly is required, and with two drawer boxes and an open shelf the Mateo bedside table is a short build rather than an afternoon one. Work on a blanket so the melamine does not scuff, follow the supplied instructions in order, and check the drawers run square before you load them.
