Its so easy to hide away items like spare throw blankets or extra cushions in the hidden compartment or even use the uplifted surface as a desk (or dining table). Its got a pretty universal design that would work with most spaces like your living room or even a home office, and Im a big fan of the rounded edges that feel more gentle to bump into than angular tables. One thing Ill note is the piece is relatively heavy (about 125 pounds) and has no legs, so it might not be the easiest piece to move by yourself.

The size is just right for my space, wide enough to feel substantial without taking over the sitting area. I enjoy the airy feel the rattan provides, but if you want to display a collection of coffee table books, this may not be the table for youit doesnt support much weight, and if you rest your feet, youll feel it bending under your heels.

At the time, I was looking for a coffee table that checked three boxes: solid wood construction; minimal, clean-lined design; and something relatively child-friendly. This met all those criteria and then some. Our son climbed on it, colored on it, and ran his cars and trucks over it daily, and it still looks great. Earlier this year, we purchased the second table for a different space. When it arrived, it was a bit high for our couch, so we had our buildings brilliant superintendent help us take a couple of inches off the legs. I dont think a modification like that could successfully be done with a table of poor qualitythis one survived the process beautifully and no one would ever be able to tell the difference."

Thankfully, set up was a one-woman jobI was living in a studio alone at the time, but Ive since moved twice and this table has come with me both times. The shape is basic but offers ample space for storage on the lower shelf and styling on the tabletop. The length and weight make it perfect for propping up your feet (a must in my book).

Dreamt up by Danish design legends at Hay, the Wood Slit Coffee Table is one of one when it comes to its charming, origami-inspired design. The price point is really reasonable compared to other solid wood coffee tables on the market, and its just the right size for someone who doesnt keep much on their coffee table (like me) except flowers and a remote or two. This table is very lightweight and not the most stable. I inherited it a while back from a friend of mine with an active toddler who was worried about it tipping over. Having experienced a quick tilt or two in my child-free household, I think my friends instincts were spot on. This table looks great, but it is certainly not the steadiest option around."

It leans slightly midcentury in design, but its still versatile enough to fit in with different decor schemes. Maybe because the elongated tabletop resembles a surfboard, I think itd be a fun piece if youre trying to achieve a coastal vibe or are looking to furnish your beach house. The discreet understorage is perfect for storing books, your remote controls, or any other small items like candles and coasters.
