A round side table with a basket combines a place for your coffee with extra storage. It’s handy next to a sofa, armchair or bed. However, a compact table can look roomier and sturdier in a product photo than it is in real life. If you only consider colour or style, you could end up buying a table that wobbles, is too low or offers very little useful storage.
Not every fabric basket is suitable for everyday use. So check the material, dimensions and construction. A double-layer polyester basket may be more practical than a thin decorative storage basket, but its capacity will still be limited if it’s low or narrow.
A laptop, lamp, books and a glass can together weigh more than you might expect. So check the stated maximum weight capacity of the tabletop. An industrial-style side table with a metal frame may look sturdy, but the official weight limits still apply.
A round shape avoids sharp corners, but it still takes up floor space. Measure the area next to your sofa or bed. Consider not only the tabletop diameter but also the height. A table that’s too low can be awkward next to a high sofa, while one that’s too high may be uncomfortable to use.
For a small room, a diameter of around 40 to 45 cm is often a practical choice. The JOYFURNOS models with a basket have a tabletop 45 cm in diameter and are 50 cm high. This makes them useful as a small side table next to a seat or as a bedside table.
Also measure the available space between the furniture and the wall. A round table with a basket needs enough room for you to reach the basket and, if needed, remove it from the frame.
A chipboard tabletop with a steel frame is a common combination for a modern side table. Check that the legs are securely attached to the tabletop and that adjustable feet are included. These can help compensate for small uneven patches in the floor and limit direct contact between the metal and the floor.
For a table with open compartments or metal mesh shelves, the fixings are particularly important. The JOYFURNOS table with two adjustable mesh shelves has a stated weight capacity of 20 kg for the tabletop and 5 kg per shelf. Always follow the lowest stated limit for the shelf in question.
A side table with a fabric basket is suitable for lightweight items such as remote controls, magazines, blankets or accessories. Don’t put heavy or sharp objects in the basket unless the manufacturer has specified a weight limit for it.
For everyday care, a dry or slightly damp cloth is enough for many materials. With chipboard and polyester, it’s best to avoid prolonged contact with moisture. Also check whether the basket is removable, as this makes cleaning easier.

Yes, as long as its diameter and height suit the bed and the available floor space. A model with a 45 cm diameter and a height of 50 cm can work as a bedside table with storage, but measure the height of your mattress and bed frame first.
It varies by product. The JOYFURNOS tables mentioned here have a stated maximum weight capacity of 35 kg for the tabletop. The product information doesn’t give a separate weight limit for the fabric basket, so use it for lightweight items and don’t exceed the stated tabletop limit.
Place the table on a level surface, tighten the legs fully and use any adjustable feet to compensate for small differences in floor height. After assembly, check again that the tabletop stays stable when you place lightweight items on it.
