Catalena Bedside Table | Online8 New Zealand Sleek black oak veneer over an MDF carcass, in a low, wide proportion that suits platform beds and lower bases. At 31kg it's a substantial piece — heavier than its size suggests, which is what stops it feeling flimsy. Arrives assembled. Why It Stands Apart Oak Veneer Finish: Real timber veneer over MDF, giving grain rather than a flat printed surface. Substantial Build: 31kg — solid and stable rather than lightweight. Low, Wide Proportions: 550mm across and 550mm high, suiting lower beds. Black Finish: Contemporary, and forgiving of everyday marks. Arrives Assembled: No building required. Specifications Colour Black Composition Oak veneer & MDF Width 550mm Depth 450mm Height 550mm Weight 31kg Assembly Arrives assembled Frequently Asked Questions Will it be the right height for my bed? At 550mm this is one of the lower bedsides in our range, so it suits platform beds and bases on short legs. If you have a deep mattress on a 15cm-leg base, something around 650–720mm would sit better. Is 31kg going to be a problem to move? It's heavy for its size, so plan for two people to position it. The weight is a good sign — it reflects a dense carcass rather than a hollow one. How many drawers does it have? Call us on 09-278-8881 and we'll confirm the storage configuration before you order. How do I care for the veneer? Dust with a soft dry cloth and wipe spills promptly. Avoid abrasive cleaners, and use coasters — veneer is thin, so surface damage can't be sanded out the way it can on solid timber.
