Coffee Table FAQs

What is the most durable material for a coffee table?

If you’re looking for durability, you can't go wrong with solid wood. A real wood coffee table offers far more durability than glass or metal options, making it ideal for daily use. Plus,  wood is always in style, so a solid wood coffee table can become a lasting staple in your living room.

An all-wood coffee table is a durable and long-lasting choice for hosting friends or enjoying a cup of coffee. If you're after a coffee table that can handle whatever life throws at it, a solid wood table should be your go-to choice.

How do I know what coffee table to buy?

Knowing how to choose a coffee table can be tricky, but it's all about finding one that fits your space and style. Think about the size and shape first – you want it to complement your seating area without overwhelming it. Make sure your coffee table size fits with the size of your sofa and that its shape complements the way you’ll be using your living space.

Next, evaluate your storage needs. If you need extra storage, a coffee table with storage is a game-changer for keeping your space clutter-free.

The color of your coffee table can also change the feel of your space. A light wood coffee table can brighten your space, while a walnut coffee table adds a warm and cozy vibe.

Lastly, choose a style that brings it all together. From modern coffee tables to mid-century modern coffee tables, Plank+Beam has choices for everyone’s taste. At the end of the day, the right choice will be the one that feels like it belongs in your home.

How do I choose the right size coffee table?

You can choose the perfect size coffee table for your living room with just a few simple measurements.

Start by matching the length of the coffee table to about two-thirds of your sofa's length. This will help maintain a harmonious look and keep your living room from feeling cluttered or empty.

Whether you choose a small coffee table or a large coffee table, ensure there is enough space around it. There should be 12-18 inches of space between the table and the sofa. Additionally, there should be at least 30 inches of space between the table and the wall or other furniture.

Height matters, too. Your living room table should be roughly the same height or a couple of inches lower than your sofa cushions for easy access. Remember, your coffee table is a central piece that ties your whole living room together. So, measure up, pick your perfect size, and create a living room you’ll love.

Is a round or rectangular coffee table better?

When comparing a rectangular vs round coffee table, neither shape is necessarily “better.” The choice comes down to your space and vibe.

If you have a smaller apartment or love hosting game nights, a round coffee table is best for easy flow and a social setup. It easily squeezes into tighter spaces and makes everyone feel included.

If you have a larger space or need more surface area or storage, a rectangular coffee table is the best choice. It offers more space for your stuff and can anchor a large room beautifully.

Remember, there's no wrong choice. Just find the shape that suits your lifestyle and makes your space feel just right. Whether you're leaning towards round or rectangular, Plank+Beam has the perfect table to complete your living room.
