Narrow Side Tables

Have minimal extra space at the end of your couch, but want an end table? Well, you are in luck. Narrow end tables give you plenty of surface to work with, while still taking up less space than a traditional end table. These are made of quality materials, can hand the weight you intend to put on it, and can be paired to match the rest of the room decor.

Tall and Very Narrow Side Table

Charlton Home®

$47.99 $55.99

Perfect For: Sofas with high backs and armrests

What We Like: Elegant and takes up little space

What We Don’t Like: On the smaller side

This narrow end table comes in a clean white or warm coffee finish and has a unique leaf cutout on its apron. Its ten-by-ten-inch top is perfect for small plants, diffusers, and cups, and its tall shelf below can hold taller books, vases, and sculptures.

Designer Advice:

This very narrow end table doesn’t sit very deep, leaving space behind it. That space can be filled with a floor lamp for extra light or a tall decorative plant or piece to harmonize a specific style. For farmhouse styles, choose tall wheat grass décor and a metal floor lamp for modern.

What Users Say:

It fits perfect for my small space by my couch, perfect for a beverage to place on.

Not So Good For: Placing on hard or uneven floors

Designer Advice:

If you are searching for a cool industrial or edgy end table to sharpen your living room look, these are the tables to pursue. You should avoid these if you plan to place them on hard floors as they can be a bit wobbly. A way to fix this is by storing a weighted or heavier blanket inside of them.

Buying Guide

If you are shopping for narrow end tables, you might get dizzy seeing the huge variety of options. Here’s a little guide to help you with your selection. It might not be the easiest shopping decision you’ve made. But spending the extra time selecting a narrow end table ensures that you put that unused corner to good use while adding some polish to your room décor.

There’s much more to narrow end tables than being considered an easy-to-reach landing spot for your cocktails, keys and other sundry details. When done right, they are the easiest way to accentuate the aesthetics of a room.

Not to mention that they add some much-needed functionality to that wee bit of space at the end of your bed or couch. A space that would otherwise be underutilized or not used at all.

Narrow end tables are called so because they have a very small footprint and have to be accommodated in limited space. But there’s no reason why you cannot experiment with the shape. If you have a round coffee table or accent table in the room, opt for a rectangular end table, or an oval one. It helps to create a counterpoint and adds some visual interest. And if you prefer to stick to tables of the same shape, there’s a whole lot of different materials to choose from. Mix things up as long as you are able to create a balanced theme.

Use complementary styles but different materials to create a contemporary looking living space. For example, wood and metal are a great combination and complement each other nicely. If you are looking for two narrow end tables, one can be a brass or marble, whilst the other can be rosewood. It’s not written in stone that you need matching end tables at both ends of a sofa or couch. As long as the materials and styles blend together, the sky is the limit for someone with an eye for design.

Selecting tables that are same height as the arms of the sofa or the mattress of the bed allows you to easily reach out to it. If you are unable to find one that matches your décor needs and the space, pick an end table that’s slightly smaller than the armrests. Nesting tables work great if you want to break the rule here. The smaller table can be pulled out slightly when you want to use it. They also work great if you have an armless sofa. Nesting tables also create a visual effect of depth. Coming to the ideal depth, anything lesser than 24” is a safe bet. It doesn’t interrupt with your movement as you get in and out of bed or the couch.

Bonus tip: If you are one of those people who’s always short of storage space at home, look for a table that has integrated storage. It can hide the many things that otherwise clutter a well-decorated living space.
