Morales Nightstand | Acme Furniture
Our Morales Nightstand brings mid-century modern elegance to your bedside. Handcrafted from solid acacia wood with a warm walnut finish, this nightstand features two spacious soft-close drawers that glide smoothly and close quietly—perfect for early mornings and late nights. The clean-lined silhouette sits on tapered solid wood legs, while brushed brass drawer pulls add a touch of sophistication.
Designed to complement beds of all heights, the Morales stands at a versatile height that works beautifully beside platform beds, upholstered frames, and traditional box springs alike. We built this piece for those who appreciate quality craftsmanship and timeless style that ages gracefully in any bedroom setting.
What makes the Morales Nightstand special
Materials & Construction
We craft every Morales Nightstand from solid acacia wood, a sustainably harvested hardwood prized for its natural durability and beautiful grain patterns. The rich walnut finish enhances the wood’s organic character while protecting the surface from everyday wear. Each piece showcases unique variations in grain and color—a hallmark of genuine wood furniture.
Our finishing process involves multiple hand-applied coats that penetrate deep into the wood fibers, creating a protective barrier against moisture and scratches. The brushed brass hardware is solid metal, not plated plastic, ensuring your nightstand maintains its refined appearance for years. We reinforce all joinery with both traditional woodworking techniques and modern adhesives for exceptional strength.
Drawer Features & Storage
Both drawers in the Morales Nightstand glide on premium ball-bearing slides rated for over 50,000 open-close cycles. The soft-close mechanism engages in the final inches of travel, preventing slammed drawers and protecting your stored items. This feature is especially valuable during those groggy morning moments or when you’re settling in for the night.
Each drawer provides 5 inches of depth—ample room for books, tablets, charging cables, medications, journals, and bedside essentials. The interior dimensions accommodate standard paperback books standing upright, and we’ve sanded and sealed the drawer boxes for smooth surfaces that won’t snag fabrics or delicate items. The drawers pull out fully for easy access to items stored in the back.
Dimensions & Bedroom Placement
At 24 inches tall, the Morales Nightstand aligns perfectly with most mattress heights when you account for a standard bed frame. This puts the top surface at an ideal height for reaching your phone, lamp, or water glass without stretching. The 24-inch width provides generous surface area for a table lamp, alarm clock, and decorative items without overwhelming smaller bedrooms.
The 18-inch depth keeps the nightstand compact enough for tight spaces while still offering substantial drawer storage. We recommend placing the nightstand 2-3 inches from your bed frame to allow drawer clearance and easy access. The tapered legs create visual lightness and make floor cleaning simple. For rooms with two nightstands, the Morales pairs beautifully on both sides of queen and king beds from our collection.

Questions About the Morales Nightstand
Each of the two drawers measures 20 inches wide, 14 inches deep, and 5 inches tall on the interior. This provides ample space for books, tablets, charging accessories, medications, and other bedside essentials. The drawers pull out fully on ball-bearing slides, giving you easy access to items stored toward the back.
Yes, the Morales Nightstand works beautifully with adjustable bed frames. At 24 inches tall, it typically aligns well with the mattress surface when the bed is in a flat position. Since adjustable beds raise and lower, you’ll have easy access to the nightstand top regardless of your head position. The freestanding design means it won’t interfere with the bed’s movement.
The walnut finish is a hand-applied stain on solid acacia wood, not a veneer. We apply multiple coats that penetrate into the wood grain, enhancing the natural beauty while providing protection. This means you’re getting real wood grain patterns and character, and the finish won’t peel or chip like veneer can over time.
The top surface can support up to 50 pounds when weight is evenly distributed. This is more than sufficient for a table lamp, alarm clock, books, decorative items, and beverages. Each drawer is rated for 75 pounds of evenly distributed weight, allowing you to store heavier items like hardcover book collections without concern.
No, the soft-close mechanism is entirely mechanical and requires no batteries or electricity. It uses a hydraulic damper system built into the drawer slides that engages automatically when you close the drawer. This means you’ll never need to replace batteries, and the feature will continue working reliably for years.
The Morales Nightstand is sold individually, giving you the flexibility to order exactly what you need. Many customers order two for matching bedside tables, while others purchase just one for smaller bedrooms or guest rooms. If you do want a matching pair, simply add two to your cart.
We offer a 30-day return policy on the Morales Nightstand. If it doesn’t work in your space, you can return it in its original condition for a full refund minus return shipping costs. We recommend checking the dimensions against your bedroom layout before ordering. Our customer service team is also happy to answer specific questions about finish color and sizing before you purchase.
