For my side of the bed, it gives the room a more polished feel. The size works well without crowding the walkway.

For our guest room, the size feels just right. The piece feels stable enough for daily use beside the bed. It is easy to reach from the bed, which sounds small but matters every night. I was worried it might crowd the walkway, but it fits nicely. It makes the bedside setup feel more grown-up. It is sturdy enough that I am not nervous placing drinks or books on it. It was worth the update.

For a simple bedroom refresh, it gives the room a more polished feel. It coordinates easily with the bed frame and the rest of our furniture. It made a noticeable difference in the room.
