\"nighstand\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A nightstand or night table is a small piece of furniture that is typically placed next to the bed. A nightstand can come in the form of a cabinet or a table. Modern nightstands come with shelves or drawers, and in a few variants, a little door. The things that a person needs nearby when in bed, such as reading glasses, cell phones, glasses of water, books, tissues, or medications, are kept on nightstands.<\/p>\n

Before indoor toilets were developed, the chamber pot was kept on the nightstand. The chamber pot was stored in the nightstand’s cabinet, drawer, or lower storage, all of which were divided by doors. During that period, the nightstand was occasionally referred to as a commode.<\/p>\n
