Your sofa’s arm can only juggle so many things. So, in a small space, you may think you’d have to choose between a floor lamp and a side table, but the best pieces can actually do both. Floor lamps with tables attached pull double duty without taking up valuable floor space. Shine a light on your living room and create a home for your remote and evening cocktail without needing to precariously balance everything on your couch cushions, or worse, the floor.
Our Top Picks

Often seen with either a traditional floor lamp shade appended by a tray embedded in the base (or as a two-tiered piece with the lamp on one side and the table on the other), floor lamp tables are a clever design solution for those looking to streamline their space. Whether you’re in search of the perfect nightstand or just need a place to rest your current read, we’re highlighting a handful of modern standing lamps that have end tables attached.
Most Versatile
This lamp has an ultraslim frame, ideal for a narrow bedroom or tight reading nook. Almost shaped like the letter G, the industrial form is curved inward to create room (but taking up more square footage) for the table’s mango-wood surface. While quite modern, the iron base could suit several design styles if styled correctly. Pair it with a slipcovered sofa for a traditional feel, or a patterned armchair for something more eclectic.
A Coastal Touch
A white-washed oak and a twisted base give this table floor lamp a distinctly coastal feel. Like a piece of driftwood you found and crafted into a piece of home decor. Equal parts laid-back and elegant, this lamp is best when placed between a pair of accent chairs as the table wraps all the way around, giving every angle equal access to its surface area.
An Adjustable Pick
Remote-operated and with an adjustable swing arm, this dimmable floor lamp is ideal for those who need a versatile light source. A wide triangular shade is great for casting light around your entire room, while the attached side table gives you a sturdy place to set down your drink. Almost an arched floor lamp, the angular appearance offers a similar level of overhead lighting without the need for sky-high ceilings or a hardwired fixture. Oh, and did we mention it’s under $100?
Most Table Space

The Zephyr from Visual Comfort doesn’t sacrifice your favorite seat’s ability to keep all of your binge-watching essentials off the floor. This modern floor lamp boasts a sturdy, angled base and a wide drum shade, ready to cast light around your entire space. Designed by AD100 icon Kelly Wearstler, this lamp features an aged iron finish, adding depth to California neutral and more traditional design styles.
Best for Bedsides

This playful, low-profile side table and lamp combo is the ideal height for casting an ambient glow around a platform bed frame. With plenty of surface area for your alarm clock and current read, this nightstand features a round light bulb that rests in a slight divot. Ideal for the minimalist, there are no frills here—no pull strings, no lampshades—just a warm glow with a table attached. The power cord is cleverly run through the table leg for a streamlined look.
For Task Lighting

For those whose style leans more industrial, the Ozzy floor lamp (and shelf) provides an angular accent for your living room. The small wooden shelf has just enough room for a cocktail and your remote or a book. A dark, triangular shade gives a direct, task-like light, great for reading or crafting on the sofa. Plus, it arrives fully assembled for a fuss-free setup.
An Abstract Option

With a vibrant red frame and angular silhouette, this end table and metal floor lamp is a true conversation starter. Its lacquered iron tripod base gives support to the wide tray table, and the globe bulb gives this an almost animated appearance. Place it next to a 1970s-inspired sofa for a moody conversation space.
For Cottagecore Lovers

This side table lamp gives a vintage-inspired air with its fluted linen shade and bronzed finish base. The small tabletop, ideal for a drink, a bottle, or a bedtime read, is designed to accompany a rocking chair or glider in a nursery, but we love this piece as the companion to your favorite reading chair.
