A night table with a lamp can mean two things: a nightstand with a light built into the top or drawer, or a floor lamp that has a small table attached. Pick the type first. A built-in light keeps the bedside footprint small, while a floor lamp with a table reaches over the bed and sits at about 5 feet tall. Of the five options below, the three nightstands suit a bedside with an outlet nearby, and the GERGO and PESRAE floor lamps suit a bed with no room for a nightstand.
Two ways to get a lamp at the bedside
The first type is a nightstand with an LED light, a lamp attached to the top, or a light strip. These take up about 11 to 12 inches of depth and 15 to 16 inches of width, and the light is fixed to the furniture. The second type is a floor lamp with a side table, where the lamp is on a pole and the table is at the base. These stand about 5 feet tall and can be moved to the bed side. Your choice depends on whether you want the lamp at the nightstand height or higher.

- Power: one USB port, one USB-C port and two outlets, according to the bullet text.

Affiliate link
- Dimensions: 11.8 inches deep, 15.7 inches wide, 23.6 inches high (spec field).

- Storage: two fabric drawers and an open shelf.
- Weight: the spec field gives 12.1 lb in its weight field. The listing does not say what that figure applies to.
- Assembly: required, with a screwdriver. Color: black.
This nightstand adds a lot of light control in a small footprint. Its 12.1 lb weight field is unclear, so do not treat it as a load rating until the seller confirms.
Lazzanto Nightstand with Rear Charging Station, LED Light, 2 Drawers, Black
Affiliate link
- Dimensions: 11.4 inches deep, 15.6 inches wide, 24.4 inches high (spec field).
- Light: a smart LED light strip on the nightstand. The bullet text says it can be controlled by cord, and the rest of that sentence is cut off in the text available.
- Power: two USB ports and two outlets at the rear.
- Load: 50 lb (spec field). Weight: 10.7 lb.
- Materials: particle board and black-coated metal.
This is a simple black nightstand with a light and charging at the back. Its 50 lb figure is a plain load rating, unlike the Huuger’s weight field, which does not say what it applies to.
GERGO Floor Lamp with Table, Side Table for Living Room, 3 CCT 9W LED Bulb
Affiliate link
- Dimensions: 15.75 inches deep, 11.81 inches wide, 59.06 inches high (spec field).
- Lamp: a 9W LED bulb with three color temperatures, 3000K, 4500K and 6500K, according to the bullet text.
- Shade: linen, and the arc head rotates up to 180 degrees, according to the bullet text.
- Design: a floor lamp with shelves and a side table, according to the bullet text.
- Materials: linen shade and metal. Color: rustic brown.
This is the taller and more flexible option, with an arc head that reaches over a bed. The listing does not state a power outlet or a load, so use it as a lamp and side table only.
PESRAE Floor Lamp with Table, End Tables with Charging Station
Affiliate link
- Dimensions: 18.9 inches deep, 13.39 inches wide, 59.45 inches high (spec field). The item weighs 11.2 lb.
- Table: a three-tier side table with three open shelves, according to the bullet text.
- Charging: a USB-A port and a Type-C port in the table, according to the bullet text.
- Lamp: a 9W E26 LED bulb with 800 lumens and three color temperatures, according to the bullet text.
- Materials: linen shade and metal. Color: rustic brown.
This lamp has the deepest table of the floor lamps, so it has more room for a phone, a book and a glass. Its 800 lumen bulb is the only brightness figure in this group. The listing does not state a load for the shelves.
Check the light and the outlet
The listings give bulb wattage, color temperature and lumens for the floor lamps, and a power port count for the nightstands. Check where the nearest outlet is before you choose a floor lamp, because the cord has to reach it without crossing the bed. For a nightstand with a built-in light, check the position of the outlet, since the nightstand needs to sit within reach of the cord. For related reading, see bedside table bookshelves and bedside table drawer organizers.
Mistakes to avoid
- Buying a floor lamp without checking its height against the bed and headboard. The two floor lamps are about 59 inches tall.
- Assuming the nightstand light is bright enough for reading. The listings give bulb or light details without a lumen figure, except the PESRAE lamp.
- Trusting one figure. The Fixwal drawer count and the Huuger weight field need confirming.
