Consider the dimensions, materials, finishes and proportions of the set before choosing a design. Explore our wider tables collection to discover more table styles for your home.
Why choose a nest of tables?
Make better use of space
Nesting tables are designed to fit together, helping reduce the amount of floor space they occupy when arranged as a set. This can be particularly useful in smaller living rooms, flats and multifunctional spaces.
Enjoy flexible surface space
Separate the tables when you need extra surfaces for drinks, snacks, books or accessories. When they are no longer required, slide them back together to keep the room organised.
Create a coordinated look
A nest of tables typically features matching or complementary designs. This can make it easier to create a consistent appearance while adding practical furniture to your seating area.
Complement different interior styles
Nesting tables are available in a variety of shapes, materials and finishes. Choose a design that complements your sofa, flooring and other furniture, whether your home has a contemporary, classic or minimalist look.
How to choose the right nest of tables
Measure your available space
Before buying a nest of tables online, measure the area where you intend to place them. Check the dimensions of the largest table and the overall space required when the tables are separated. Consider how much room you need to walk around the furniture and whether the tables will fit comfortably beside your sofa or armchairs.
Choose the right materials and finish
The materials influence the appearance and maintenance requirements of your nesting tables. Wooden finishes can add warmth, while glass or metal details may suit a more contemporary interior. Check the individual product description for exact material specifications, finishes and care instructions.
Consider the size difference between tables
The tables in a nest are designed to fit together, but their individual sizes determine how much usable surface space you have. Consider whether the largest table is suitable for your main needs and whether the smaller tables will be practical when separated.
Match the tables to your furniture
Choose a nest of tables that complements the height, shape and finish of your existing furniture. A coordinated set can blend into your interior, while a contrasting design can introduce visual interest.
Think about everyday functionality
Consider how you plan to use the tables. If you regularly entertain guests, separate surfaces may be especially useful. If your main priority is saving space, look for a set that nests neatly together and fits comfortably beside your seating.
Nest of tables for different rooms
Nest of tables for living rooms
Place a nest of tables beside your sofa or within your seating area to provide flexible surfaces for drinks, books and accessories. Separate the tables when you need extra space for guests, then nest them together afterwards. Explore our sofas collection to find seating that complements your living room arrangement.
Nesting tables for small spaces
In compact homes, nesting tables can offer additional surface space without requiring the footprint of several separate tables at all times. Choose a set that fits comfortably alongside your existing furniture and leaves walkways clear.
Nest of tables for entertaining
When friends or family visit, separate the tables to provide convenient surfaces around the room. This can help make drinks and other essentials accessible without relying on a single central table.
Nesting tables for reading corners
A nest of tables can be useful beside an armchair or reading chair. Keep a book, a drink or a small lamp within reach while maintaining a flexible layout. Explore our armchairs and lounge chairs to complete a comfortable reading corner.
How to style a nest of tables
Arrange the tables together
When not in use, nest the tables neatly together to create a compact furniture arrangement. Position the set where it is easy to reach without interrupting the flow of the room.
Separate the tables when needed
Use the smaller tables as additional surfaces beside seating or in different parts of the living room. Their flexibility can be useful when entertaining or changing your furniture layout.
Add simple decorative accessories
A vase, a book or a small decorative object can add character to the largest table. Keep accessories proportionate to the surface and avoid overcrowding the tables you use regularly.
Coordinate with your coffee table
A nest of tables can complement a central coffee table by providing extra surfaces around the seating area. Choose designs that work together in terms of material, colour and proportions. Explore our coffee tables to find complementary options for your living room.
Nest of tables vs side tables
A nest of tables consists of several tables designed to fit together, giving you flexible surface space when needed. A side table is generally a single piece of furniture placed beside a sofa, armchair or bed. Choose nesting tables if you want the option of using several surfaces while keeping them compact when not in use. A single side table may be more suitable if you only need one permanent surface beside your seating. Explore our side tables to compare individual table designs.
