Cheap Bedside TablesLooking for cheap bedside tables? If so then please continue reading below. The thing is many cheap bedside tables offers can seem to good to be true and the truth is they are. If you want a piece of bedroom furniture to fall apart within a year then go ahead and buy the cheapest possible. The problem is you will soon have to buy a better quality one real soon. There a couple of things to remember before you decide which one to buy. Build quality is really important and should not be over looked. Generally you do get what you pay for. The better quality bedside tables will have tongue and groove joints that are glued together. This makes the legs far more sturdy than bedside tables that have had the legs nailed in. Very popular are spindle table legs and bun feet rustic bedside tables. If this is your desired style then choose carefully. Bun feet look nice in bedrooms that have an antique feel but can be unstable if the table has been badly made while spindle legs also look fantastic in the same setting. However being "turned" to create the spindle does mean that the the legs are weaker and liable to break if knocked over. If you are on a budget I would avoid these types of cheap bedside tables and opt for a table with four strong legs. It may not look as classy but will give you years of service. If you need a space to put away medication, eye glasses or remote controls then choose a table that has a drawer. Left out, these items can leave your bedroom looking untidy and not leave enough room on your bedside table for essentials such as an alarm clock, glass of water etc. Look carefully inside the drawer to see what it's base is made of. If it's very cheap it is likely to be made of ply. This is OK if you only need to use it for light items but if you need to put heavier things inside it you should look for wood bases. Ply bends very easily and weighty items will force the base away from the drawer making it unusable. Often manufacturers will cut down on cost by using low quality drawer handles. Look out for handles secured with a screw barely long enough to secure the handle. If you are on a budget it is likely that you will have to settle for a self assembly bedside table. In reality, there shouldn't be too much to put together so you won't need to be an expert DIY'er to succeed. Pay a little more and you can find ready assembled tables for around $60 that are of a good enough quality they should last for many years. If you are prepared to undertake careful research you will find quality cheap bedside tables at a price you wouldn't have believed possible.
