Coffee tables<\/strong> are a hard-working bunch. Home to hot drinks, magazines, that much-needed glass of wine and the occasional pair of feet, they\u2019re expected to show off glossy tomes while looking effortlessly stylish themselves. So before you commit to a new low-level lovely, take some time to consider the practicalities.
\nIn the case of coffee tables, size matters. Mark out your intended table with masking tape so you get an idea of how it will look in relation to other furniture and a rug it might be resting on. Avoid perilously sharp corners if you have little ones running around, and bear in mind how high-maintenance your new purchase might be. The good news is there are numerous options out there.
\nBefore you buy, check out these tips for choosing the right one for your space. <\/p>\n

Consider storage<\/strong>
\nMultipurpose furniture makes perfect sense in a small space. If you need more storage (and who doesn\u2019t?), consider using different shelfs.

Explore other options<\/strong>
\nThink flexibly when choosing your table. If you\u2019re essentially after somewhere to rest a drink, you may find a more convenient (and affordable) option. Select something sturdy to avoid an irritating wobble.

Buy multiple models<\/strong>
\nSometimes a single table just isn\u2019t sufficient. If your seating is spaced out, several smaller tables will keep cocktails accessible to all. Buy matching models to unite the scheme.

Get the height right<\/strong>
\nAs a rough guide, the top of your coffee table should be about the same height as the surrounding chair seats, as with this pallet design, though slightly lower can work just fine. Avoid going higher, though, as you won\u2019t want to be reaching up to put down your drink and it could block sightlines.

Go with the flow<\/strong>

\nGlass-topped tables are a great way to maintain the sense of space in a room and a curved, corner-free design, makes manoeuvring around it much easier, especially for toddlers! Be prepared to keep it polished, though, as fingermarks can show.
