The height of our mattress is about 30 the nightstand is about 25 1 2 and the lamps are about 25 1 2 also.
Nightstand height compared to bed.

Ours is about 4 5 from mattress to side table which is perfect for us right now.
Three main types of nightstands like we mentioned earlier nightstands come in all different sizes and we could go on forever if we wanted to list every specific kind of nightstand.
Range of options most commercially made nightstands are between 24 and 28 inches tall corresponding to the average mattress height of 25 inches.
This nightstand height alleviates the need for people who are standing up to bend over when reaching for items.
Generally nightstands come in two sizes these days 24 26 tall and 28 30 tall.
The smaller size works well with our thinner mattresses from yesteryear or maybe a mattress only situation for a bed with some kind of platform base or slats for support underneath.
The average height of a mattress and foundation is about 25 so in turn most commercial nightstands are around 24 28 tall.
I would start with 27 for the side table or nightstand near table height and then adjust your bed lower from there.
