Collection: Buy Sideboards Online in India

A sideboard is a low, wide storage unit placed against a wall — most commonly in the dining room, but also used in living rooms and hallways. In the dining room, a sideboard (also called a buffet) stores crockery, cutlery, table linen, and serving dishes. In the living room, it provides concealed storage while doubling as a display surface for lamps, art, and décor. In the hallway, it works as an entryway storage piece with surface space for keys and everyday items.

Sideboards typically stand between 75–90 cm tall — lower than a standard cabinet and approximately waist-to-chest height for most adults. This height makes them easy to access while seated or standing, and comfortable to use as a serving surface during meals.

The terms are often used interchangeably. Traditionally, a buffet refers to a piece specifically designed for a dining room with serving storage. A sideboard is the broader term used for similar furniture across multiple rooms. In India, both terms refer to the same category of low, wide storage furniture.

Yes — a sideboard can make an excellent TV unit. Its low profile and wide surface are well suited to placing a TV on top or mounting one above it. Ensure the sideboard is wide enough for your TV (ideally 20–30 cm wider on each side) and check for cable management options. Many Mohh sideboards work well in this configuration.
