Table lamps for nightstands should be 24-27 inches tall (including shade). The bottom of the lamp shade should be at eye level when you're sitting in bed—this prevents glare while reading. The lamp base should be proportional to your nightstand—not wider than the table. Bring your nightstand measurements to our showroom and we'll help you find the perfect size.

Table lamps (24-27 inches tall) sit on furniture like nightstands, end tables, and desks—they provide focused task lighting ($29-$89). Floor lamps (58-64 inches tall) stand on the floor beside sofas or chairs—they provide ambient and reading light ($59-$149). Table lamps are better for bedrooms and desks, floor lamps are better for living rooms and reading corners.

For reading and task lighting, use 60-100W equivalent LED bulbs for bright, focused light. For ambient and mood lighting, use 40-60W equivalent LED bulbs for soft, warm glow. Always check the lamp's maximum wattage rating (usually on the socket). LED bulbs use less energy and last longer than incandescent—a 60W equivalent LED only uses 9-12 watts.
