Height Adjustable Over Bed Table Trolley with Sunmica Top & Knob
Choose options
If a family member spends a lot of time in bed during recovery, an over bed table trolley can provide a convenient surface for meals, reading, writing, a phone, tablet or other small items.
The table has a U-shaped base that moves under a suitable bed. Therefore, you can position the tabletop closer to the user without moving the bed itself.
In addition, a side knob lets you adjust the tabletop height manually. Meddey currently lists an approximate height range of 28 to 42 inches.
As a result, families can use this table for home care, while hospitals, clinics and nursing-care settings can also use it for routine bedside needs.
Over Bed Table Trolley for Home Patient Care
An over-bed table gives someone in bed a movable surface within easy reach. For example, the user can keep meals, books, medicines or a tablet nearby.
Moreover, the castor wheels make the table easier to move when the person needs extra bedside space.
However, every bed has a different frame and height. Therefore, families should check the available space underneath the bed before ordering.
Over Bed Table Terms Explained Simply
Key Features of the Over Bed Table Trolley
Height Adjustable from About 28–42 Inches
The side knob controls the manual height adjustment. Therefore, you can position the tabletop according to the bed and user.
Sunmica Laminated Tabletop
The approximately 30 × 16 inch tabletop gives users space for meals, books and common personal items.
Four Castor Wheels
Four castors help you move the table around the bedside area. As a result, you can reposition it when the user needs more space.
Powder-Coated Mild-Steel Frame
The mild-steel frame supports the tabletop. In addition, the coated finish protects the exposed metal surface.
U-Shaped Base
The U-shaped frame can move under a suitable bed. However, you should check the available clearance first.
Home and Hospital Use
Families can use the table for home care. Meanwhile, hospitals and clinics can use it for routine bedside activities.
What Can an Over Bed Table Be Used For?
The table gives someone in bed a flat surface within reach. For instance, users may use it for:
- eating meals or snacks
- reading books or newspapers
- writing
- using a tablet or phone
- using a lightweight laptop within the listed load
- keeping medicines or small personal items nearby
However, the table does not make every user fully independent. Some people may still need help because mobility and strength differ from person to person.
Height Adjustment on the Over Bed Table Trolley
This model uses a manual height-adjustment system rather than an electric lift. Therefore, you adjust the height directly with the side knob.
- First, support the tabletop while you adjust it.
- Next, loosen the side knob.
- Move the tabletop up or down to the required height.
- Then, tighten the knob firmly.
- Finally, check that the tabletop feels stable before placing items on it.
Meddey currently lists an approximate adjustment range of 28 to 42 inches.
Will This Over Bed Table Fit Under My Bed?
The U-shaped base can move under many home and hospital beds. However, bed designs vary considerably.
Therefore, measure the gap under your bed before buying the table. This matters especially when the bed frame sits close to the floor.
In addition, check nearby rails, furniture or bed mechanisms. These parts may block the trolley from reaching the position you want.

How Much Weight Can the Over Bed Table Hold?
Meddey currently lists an approximate 10–15 kg load when users spread the weight evenly.
However, Meddey presents this figure as a range rather than one exact limit. Therefore, avoid treating 15 kg as a guaranteed tested maximum.
Instead, spread items across the tabletop and avoid placing heavy objects on one edge.
Safety Tips for an Over Bed Table Trolley
- Tighten the side knob before placing items on the tabletop.
- Do not overload the table.
- Spread heavier items across the tabletop.
- Do not sit or stand on the table.
- Do not use the table as a walking aid.
- Do not pull yourself up using the tabletop or frame.
- Do not use it to move a person between the bed and chair.
- Move the trolley carefully around the user and other equipment.
- Supervise children around the movable table.
Cleaning the Sunmica Laminated Top
For routine cleaning, wipe the tabletop with a soft, slightly damp cloth. If needed, use a suitable mild cleaning product.
Afterwards, dry the surface. Since the table uses a laminated wooden board, avoid leaving water on the top for a long time.
Therefore, describe the tabletop as easy to wipe and clean rather than waterproof.
Over Bed Table for Older Adults and Home Recovery
Families caring for an older adult or someone recovering at home may find the table useful for everyday bedside activities.
For example, it can make meals, reading and tablet use more convenient when a person spends significant time in bed.
In addition, the adjustable height helps families position the tabletop according to the bed setup.
However, some users may still need caregiver support. Their mobility, balance and strength will determine how much help they need.
Over Bed Table Trolley for Hospitals and Clinics
Hospitals and clinics can use this table as a movable bedside surface for routine patient activities.
For example, staff can reposition the trolley with the castor wheels. In addition, they can use the side knob to adjust the tabletop height.
However, the current product information does not confirm locking castors or a tilting tabletop. Therefore, we do not claim either feature.
