What Is a Side Table?

A side table is a compact accent table designed to sit beside seating or at the end of a sofa, providing a surface for lamps, drinks, books, or decorative objects. Side tables and end tables are functionally identical, with "end table" typically referring to pairs flanking a sofa, while "side table" describes any auxiliary table placed next to furniture or used as a standalone accent piece.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a side table and an end table?

Side tables and end tables are functionally the same; "end table" traditionally refers to matching pairs at sofa ends, while "side table" describes any small table placed beside furniture or used as a standalone accent.

What height should a side table be next to a sofa?

A side table should sit within 2 inches of your sofa arm height for comfortable reach; this 24-inch table works well with sofas that have 22- to 26-inch arm heights.

How do you style a side table?

Style a side table by grouping items in odd numbers -- a lamp, a small plant, and a book create visual balance -- and vary heights to add dimension without overcrowding the 20 x 20 inch surface.

What size side table next to a chair?

Choose a side table diameter or width that is roughly half to two-thirds the width of your chair's arm; this 20-inch round table pairs well with chairs that are 30 to 40 inches wide.

Does LOOMLAN offer free shipping on this side table?

Yes, LOOMLAN provides free shipping on all orders to the continental United States with no minimum purchase required.

What is the weight capacity of the penshell veneer top?
