Side tables are important but often overlooked pieces of furniture in any home. Side Tables help to keep lamps, books, remotes, and drinks as well as add style to the bedroom. If you’re looking to add or upgrade the side tables in your home, round shapes are a great option. Round side tables look decent, beautiful and space-saving.
A good side table or end side table provides extra space but also takes part in decor. In this blog post, I shall discuss some of the best round side tables and end tables that you can choose according to your needs.
The Benefits of Round Side Tables
There are some reasons round side tables are popular:
- They fit in small spaces nicely. The round shape lets them tuck in close next to chairs, couches, and beds without sticking out awkwardly. This makes them good for compact homes or tight spaces.
- They have an elegant, classic look. The smooth curved edges of a round table look timeless and sophisticated. They match both traditional and modern decor styles.
- They prevent bruises. Unlike tables with sharp corners, round tables don’t cause bruises if bumped into accidentally. This makes them good for busy areas.
- They allow flexibility in arranging furniture. Since there are no corners, round tables can be placed at an angle or very close together. This gives you more options when designing a space.

Round End Table Size
Height and width are the two most important things when choosing round end tables. Normal end tables are 18-24 inches tall. The best height depends on how tall the furniture is that the tables go next to. It is good to pick an end table that is within 2 inches of the height of your couch or chair arm.
For width, it depends on what you want to use the Round side table for. I think it is best to find a good balance between helpful and nice-looking. Depending on the space, I like to have room on my end table for a lamp, a coaster, and maybe some simple decor like plain books or a pretty piece.
Where to place them, I like using round side end tables next to a single chair in a corner because it look nice between two armchairs. You might see these small end tables also called round accent tables or round side tables – they all mean the same thing.
