Our Picks

Floating Shelf

Winston Porter

Compact and space-saving, this corner shelf nightstand exudes a classic design with its carved front molding. It is made of manufactured wood and is available in two sizes. Easy to install and comes with mounting hardware.

Designer Advice:

A great option for adding a nightstand in a small bedroom. While a single piece could suffice, we recommend taking advantage of the vertical wall space and installing two or more shelves. Place these below if you want to add storage underneath the main floating shelf, or above if you’re aiming for a more decorative look.

Rounded Corner Nightstand

A classic corner nightstand crafted in solid and manufactured wood. It follows a Demilune shape at the back and sides and features a curved cabinet door. Inside is an adjustable shelf creating two levels of storage for your bedroom essentials.

Designer Advice:

Perfect for traditional and farmhouse-style bedrooms. The nightstand’s warm wood finish would work well with decorations that have an antique, vintage, or distressed aesthetic. It also works well with metal ornaments, especially ones with brass or aged bronze finish. We recommend getting this one if you have a bed with the same wood finish or one with a rustic white frame.

A corner nightstand with drawers featuring a tropical modern rustic aesthetic. Made of engineered wood, it creates a clean frame for the woven wicker drawer faces. The combination of texture and details lend an attractive component to the interiors.

Designer Advice:

Available in natural, gray, and walnut colors. Any of these variations would look perfect in resort-style bedrooms because of their woven appearance. For styling, we recommend opting for rattan pieces paired with a solid ceramic lamp in a light, neutral color. Choose stains that slightly contrast with the woven material to introduce a chic yet subtle accent.

Buying Guide

What features should I look for in corner night stands?

Your corner night stands allow you to take advantage of every inch of your space - so you should make sure that they include space-saving features, such as drawers, shelves, and hidden outlets. An incorporated outlet or USB port is a particularly nice touch, as you’ll likely need a place to plug in your phone or tablet in as you go to bed.

You’ll also want to make sure that your corner night stands visually match your bed’s headboard. Checking to make sure that the pieces are made out of similar wood or metal finishes will help you retain a cohesive look throughout your bedroom.

What's the best wood for corner night stands?

Hardwood is the best wood for corner night stands. It wears better over the long term. Some of the best hardwood for corner night stands includes oak, maple, walnut, cherry, mahogany, birch and teak. They are of the highest quality.

For example, walnut corner night stands are strong and durable. The wood carves well and retains its shape for years. Maple corner night stands are renowned for their durability and can take a beating. This makes them ideal for young families. Oak corner night stands are unusually dense and long-lasting. They can last centuries with proper care.

Nevertheless, you can find high quality corner night stands from softwood like pine especially if you are looking for something more mid-priced when compared to the higher cost of hardwood furniture.
