Like most people, you might wonder: why is there so much variety in coffee tables?
Why doesn't everyone just agree on a standard shape and size?
Or, conversely, do we need too many coffee tables?
Once you've decided on your own particular preference—be it for length, height, color, shape, or design—the task of choosing the perfect one becomes that much more difficult.Although many people consider the coffee table as an afterthought, it can actually play a big role in creating an attractive, functional, and cohesive living room.
If you’re like most coffee table shoppers, you probably want style and value.
Ideally, you’ll get a solid chest the top of which can make a great spot for your drink and food, while the bottom will hide magazines, remote controls, and other clutter.
