Generally speaking, a side table is often a smaller, simpler style of table, usually just legs and a surface to rest a lamp or drink on - while a bedside table can be a little larger, often with storage included, like drawers, a cupboard, or both. However, they both function similarly, so you can of course use a side table as a bedside table, and vice versa!
There isn’t much difference between an end table and an occasional side table - other than end tables typically being slightly smaller than side tables. Where you might place an end table in the small gap between your sofa and the wall, a side table might be more in the centre of the room, perhaps beside an armchair. But truthfully? Either can be used wherever you like, so it’s best to just pick a style or size that suits your space the best.
Small side tables are usually called end tables, or simply small side tables. All our furniture at DFS has the measurements listed on the product page, so you can make sure your new side table fits perfectly in your space.
