This guide compares eight nightstands from our research set, checked on 2026-10-08, using only what each listing states. A single-drawer nightstand is a simple choice: one drawer for small items, a top surface for a lamp, and often an open or closed shelf below. The category is crowded, and the listings often disagree with themselves on colour, top material and drawer type. We have not tested any of these pieces. We do not show prices or ratings.

You may not need a drawer at all. If you only need a surface for a lamp and an open shelf for books, a table without a drawer does the same job, and you avoid most of the conflicts below.
- Plain black drawer nightstand with a metal frame: VAFEKOL (B0GG6ZQGZ1). Its bullets list a PU leather drawer front, a metal wire fence on the bottom shelf and a 15 mm metal frame. Its top material conflicts, though.
- Clear weight figure: YAUKOMEL (B0FZJWF4Z8) with a 50-pound maximum, or YAUKTAK black (B0FNR68241) and MMEOLUOOK (B0DCZG7QN5) at 100 pounds.
- Largest drawer dimensions stated: AWASEN walnut (B0GRZT6VNR), with a drawer of 6.3 by 14.6 by 10.3 inches, per the bullets.
Intent and what to look for
The buyer wants a simple drawer for everyday items, with enough top space for a lamp and a clock. Most of these listings are about the same size, so the choice comes down to finish, drawer front, shelf and any conflicts in the listing text.

Who should skip these nightstands
- Anyone who needs charging. None of the eight listings states an outlet or USB port.
- Anyone who needs a confirmed top or frame material. VAFEKOL, YAUKOMEL and JOONEE conflict between fields and bullets.
- Anyone who needs a weight limit. Only YAUKTAK, YAUKOMEL and MMEOLUOOK state one, and the figures are 50 to 100 pounds.
- Anyone who needs a drawer rather than a cabinet door. Apetaccat’s storage is described as a cabinet.
Buying criteria
- Drawer: Check the drawer width and depth. Only AWASEN lists the drawer size.
- Top material: Several listings conflict. Read the photos and the material field.
- Weight: Five of eight give no maximum. Treat an unstated limit as unknown, not as high, and check the listing before loading the drawer. This is our own advice, not a standard.
- Shelf: Open shelf or closed side. The listings are not consistent, so check what the bottom holds.
- Power: None lists outlets. If you need charging, choose a different category.
Worked example: two nightstands and a queen bed
Say your wall is 100 in wide and a queen bed takes 60 in (our assumption). Two nightstands at 15.75 in wide take 2 × 15.75 = 31.5 in, so 100 − 60 − 31.5 = 8.5 in is left over for the ends. The footprint of a 11.81 x 15.75 in nightstand is about 186 sq in, or 1.29 sq ft (186 ÷ 144).
Weights: the MMEOLUOOK lists 5 kg, about 11.0 lb (5 × 2.2046), and a 100 lb limit. The YAUKTAK also lists 100 lb, the YAUKOMEL 50 lb, and the other five state none. Eight of the eight have no power listed, so you need a separate charger or extension cord.
Frequently asked questions
Does any of these have charging?
No. None of the eight listings states an outlet, USB port or Type-C port. If you need charging, look at a nightstand with a power strip listed.
Which one has the largest drawer?
The AWASEN listing gives a drawer size of 6.3 by 14.6 by 10.3 inches. The others do not state drawer dimensions in the text we have, so we cannot compare them.
Which has the highest stated weight limit?
YAUKTAK black and MMEOLUOOK both list 100 pounds. YAUKOMEL lists 50 pounds. Five listings state no limit.
Are these solid wood?
No listing says solid wood as the main material. Most say engineered wood, MDF or particleboard. Some bullets mention solid wood legs (AWASEN, and JOONEE in its title). Check the material fields before buying.
