Every measurement you need to know before ordering the Bauhaus C-shaped side table — both versions, with the original dimension drawings, a side-by-side comparison, and a 4-step will-it-fit checklist. Both versions are $198.89 (compare at $316.30) with free US shipping and 30-day returns.

Quick answer: the rolling version stands 26 in (66 cm) tall with a 3.1 in (7.9 cm) gap under its base tube; the fixed version stands 24 in (61 cm) tall on a 21 × 21 in floor-hugging loop. Both carry the same 19.9 in wide, 5 mm tea-tinted acrylic top.

Will It Fit? The 4-Step Checklist

  • 1. Measure your sofa arm height. The classic rule: a side table should land within 2 in of the arm. Arms 24–28 in tall pair naturally with the 26 in rolling version; lower lounge seating (22–26 in arms) suits the 24 in fixed version.
  • 2. Check the gap under your sofa. Kneel and measure floor to frame: 3.2 in or more and the caster base rolls straight under; 1.5 in or more and the fixed loop slides under.
  • 3. Confirm the reach. The base extends about 21 in from the back edge — enough for the top to hover over your lap on a standard-depth seat, not just perch at the armrest.
  • 4. Check your walkway. The table claims roughly 20 × 21 in of floor when parked; in tight layouts, the rolling version can tuck fully against the sofa side between uses.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which height should I choose for a standard sofa?

Most modern sofas have 24–27 in arms — the 26 in With Casters version keeps the top level with or just under the arm, which is the most comfortable reach. For low-slung or armless seating, choose the 24 in fixed version.

Does it work as an over-bed or bedside table?

Yes. The base slides under most bed frames; the top floats over the mattress edge. Platform beds with under-frame clearance below 1.5 in are the only poor match.

Will the fixed version scratch hard floors?

The base loop is smooth polished tube with a broad contact line rather than feet, so it distributes weight gently — add felt strips under the loop if you slide it daily on delicate hardwood.

How big is the top, really?

19.9 in wide — comfortably a 16-inch laptop plus a coffee, or a dinner plate, remote, and a paperback. See it styled three ways in our C-table styling guide.
