A coffee table is a table designed to be placed in a group of one or two other tables. Each table in the group is usually graduated in size. As a result, nesting tables are often 'layered' or 'stacked' to emphasize the varying heights. Now, take a look at our favorite ways/ideas/tips for styling with one!

A coffee table is a low table designed to be placed in a sitting area for convenient support of beverages, remote controls, magazines, books (especially large, illustrated coffee table books), decorative objects, and other small items.

We always use our Room Planner tool to layout a space before shopping, and if you’re furnishing your living room, you should start here. Your coffee table should be between 14-18 inches from any seating clustered around it, and definitely no more than 24 inches. So if you’ve laid out your floorplan, you should be able to see how large a coffee table you’ll need.
