Top 10 Best Overbed Tables in the UK 2021 (Aidapt, Drive DeVilbliss and More)

If the overbed table is going to be a permanent addition to your bedroom, consider this product. It has lots of storage, including a sling, shelf and even a hanging rack so you can keep all your belongings within reach.

It comes in a few different colour options too, including this somewhat less medical-looking dark wood, so you can pick the one that best matches your decor. Unfortunately, you can't adjust the height of this table, unlike the other options on our list, which means it may not be suitable for everyone. 

It's always nice when you find a product you can customise to your needs. When you purchase this table, you have the option to choose whether you'd like it with or without wheels. It's also height-adjustable and you can tilt the table up to 45 degrees if you want to read or use your laptop.

The table is a lot smaller than some of the others on our list, so it's best for those who don't need to fit a lot on the surface or who are short on space. It's still a great product from a reliable healthcare brand, though, with strong hardwood upstands and chrome plating for extra support and durability.

Like the idea of being able to change the height of your table? It's so easy to adjust this design with its air-lift system, which you can lightly squeeze to raise slowly or tightly squeeze for a quick change. You're safe to put drinks on the tabletop too, as it's laminated and thus fully spill-proof and easy to clean.

It also looks great with its modern, all-white design. One thing to note is that the legs are angled and slightly taller than most other models, which means it can only slide under beds that have over 4 inches of space underneath. 

Here's a handy overbed table made by a company that supplies the NHS. It has a large tilting middle section that makes it easier to watch and read things, with two non-tilting sides for storing drinks and snacks. And don't worry – the support bar in the middle will stop your magazine or tablet from sliding off. 

It's on castors too, so it's easy to move if you'd also like to use it with a wheelchair or armchair. Keep in mind that this table is only suitable for a single bed, so opt for a different design if you have a king or a double. 

This table has a particularly nice design that looks smart and stylish as well as two shelves to store multiple books and other items. Both of these features make it a great option as a general piece of furniture as well as for anyone on bed rest for a long time. 

Plus, the tabletop is fade-resistant, so the board won't discolour if your bed is positioned by a sunny window, and all of the swivel wheels have a lock to stop the table from unexpectedly rolling out of place. It's also easy to install, with Novhome stating that it should take no more than 30 minutes to assemble.

Do you have a divan or ottoman? Most side overbed tables don't work with these styles, so instead, try this version that you can fit over a small double or single bed. It's sturdy with a large capacity that can support over 50 kg of weight, so you can put larger objects on top like a TV to keep you occupied.

Another great feature is the locking wheels that allow you to easily transport the table, push it away, and store it when not in use. Plus, the top is made of MDF which is considered sturdier than other engineered wood types, and it won't pick up ring marks from mugs or glasses. 

This table will easily slip under wheelchairs or beds with minimal clearance – even divans, according to the manufacturer. It's mounted on two wheels instead of four, so the metal supports are lower but you still get the benefit of a table with castors. 

You can adjust the height of the table by turning the knobs on the legs and tilt the tabletop as well, which has a lipped edge to stop papers and such from falling off. If you're on a budget, you should definitely consider this product as it's less expensive than many other options yet it is still from a trusted medical brand, Drive DeVilbliss. 

Most overbed tables have a wooden top, but this design has a plastic surface which is much easier to clean and care for. It's also lightweight and easier to carry if it needs to be moved up and down stairs often, for use in both the living space and the bedroom. 

Plus, as well as raised edges, it has a handy phone holder indent too. Adjustability-wise, you can change the height to easily and comfortably reach the tabletop while you're seated or lying down. Like all the best tables, it also has a tilt feature to change the angle as needed.

This table is a fantastic find, as it comes in a large adjustable size that will fit completely over a single, double or king-size bed. The middle section tilts to make it easier to see a book or computer screen, while the sides stay level. Perfect for propping up drinks and TV snacks safely.

Furthermore, there are some excellent storage features, like a box with a magazine rack and a phone slot to keep your device close to hand. This is a great buy whether you have limited mobility, you need to work while on bed rest or you just want to turn your room into the ultimate relaxation station. 

Drive Devilbliss's Deluxe overbed table has earned the top spot on our list for several reasons. Firstly, at 80 cm wide, it offers more space than most of its competitors. It's also the only side design with a part-tilt feature for reading and storing drinks simultaneously. Very handy!

It has everything you'd need from an overbed table, like adjustable height, castors that make it easier to move and a wipe-clean surface. On top of that, it also has a neutral design that looks visually pleasing but will match any space.
