More about bedsidesMost people born in the UK after 1945 will never have known what it was like to live in a house with no bathroom and where the toilet was in a shed at the end of the garden. This was the standard way of life for the majority of the population so, given the distance and inconvenience of visiting the toilet late at night, most people had chamber pots in their bedrooms. The problem with this was that it had to be stored somewhere. Some people put the chamber pot under the bed but others bought small cupboards to contain the chamber pots and placed these cupboards by their beds - hence the birth of the bedside cabinet or nightstand.
The widespread rebuilding and replacement of houses that took place after 1945 helped with the introduction of inside toilets into ordinary homes. Of course, this meant the bedside cabinet was no longer so essential. However, they were so useful as a place to put lamps, alarm clocks, keys, papers and so forth, that the bedside cabinet did not fall from use but simply underwent a transformation. In addition to the single drawer and cupboard layout, bedsides were now available with three drawers or as open tables - the bedside table being indistinguishable from a lamp table or end table.
At Right Price Furniture we take the view that bedside cabinets compliment a bed in the same way a frame compliments a picture. We offer bedsides in a wide choice of woods, styles and finishes to suit beds and bedrooms of all kinds. Many of these items are offered in a choice of wax, lacquer and painted finishes, so if you see a cabinet in a style you like please check to see if it is available in a finish to match your decor.
