If yes, wonder what you thought.
I'm looking for a nightstand to go with my new bed that I just bought. I did see a few at West Elm that I liked but super pricey for something like a nightstand. And then add in delivery (and I'm only getting one item, and not something real expensive so it seems more of a cost that if I was paying to get a couch delivered).
I liked a few on Wayfair but liked everything sometimes the reviews are all over the place. Quality issues etc.
There was one that got great reviews and came in fully assembled (woo hoo) ...
Thx.

I ordered a coffee and end tables from Wayfair and really like them...just be aware most of the time you will have to assemble. (I see you found one that is assembled) When we put coffee table together I noticed a small crack on the underside. I called them and they immediately sent replacement and told me to donate the first one...I haven’t had reason to order anything since but wouldn’t hesitate to do so. I hope this helps...🙂

Thanks for the review! You can get lost on that site --- they have sooooo many choices.

Emptynestmom -- Figures after scrolling thru so many, the one that I like is back ordered until late Nov. Now what to do with the nightstand I have? I posted it on Craigslist etc. and I had some interest. I'm going to look at the charities that will do a pickup too since I don't have a car. I normally go to my fav places to donate, like womens shelter but I can't do the big items. I sold a chair that I didn't want and hope the nightstand is next. I hate to have things that will end up in the landfill but I took a chance and put two chairs out near our garbage/recycling (I thought maybe a bit too worn to donate to a charity store), 30 minutes later they were gone! A win-win for all.
What is interesting that for some reason just recently I just want to get rid of soooo much in my apartment (but I won't). I'm just tired of it. Some of the things I was fine with or even liked, now.... not so much. I think some tweaks and maybe get a few new things will give it the change I need.

I’ve found putting things out with free sign on them gets them picked up every time! I have been getting rid of small furniture items for the last few months. I have found a couple of new items will refresh the old, I added an area rug 5x7 and a couple of pillows and rearranged...looked like a whole new room...either that or I am easily fooled...

Emptynestmom -- you are so right, even a small tweak can make a difference. Paint makes a big difference but I can't do that in a rental apartment. And for me, seeing if I can declutter anything (not going drastic, like ditching my couch  , also can give the room a new "look". In the last few weeks I sold a bunch of things for a really good deal on Craigslist/letgo -- a win for all. They get some items they want, I get it out my house and a bit of money too! For me, just getting it out of my house was so worth it, the money was just a bonus! Next up is a computer table that I might just offer for free or for super cheap. I just got delivered a new bed/bed frame/headboard --- so that makes me think, I would love a new nightstand. And that artwork in my bedroom that I haven't liked in awhile and ... I would love to get a few more pieces of furniture, but I went for a really pretty jade plant instead. : ) For now. |

I've ordered from Wayfair--lights and fans and maybe something else, though I cannot remember. I've not had any problems. Thinking about ditching my spare room furniture. There is nothing wrong with it, but it just isn't working for me anymore. Hard part is that it is two twin beds and no one seems to want those. I am going to have to do a little searching to find somewhere to give them away. Or maybe Craigslist--never sold anything there. No creepy feelings having someone come to your home to pick stuff up, applecrisp?

My son's coffee table and end tables came form Joss & Main. They were nicer than I expected them to be and he said the were very easy to assemble. He got them when his student teaching apartment had no furniture, but they are nice enough to not look like college furniture.
