The nightstand is the most important piece of furniture in your bedroom. It is where you place your alarm clock, your glasses, and all of the other items that you need to have close by.

You should consider the following two factors when choosing a nightstand: The height: The height of your nightstand should be proportional to the height of your bed. Style: Nightstands come in many different styles including modern, rustic and traditional.

It can be as simple as a small table or as complex as an entire dresser with drawers and shelves. The nightstand needs to be sturdy enough to hold heavy items such as books, lamps, alarm clocks and other things.
