There are ample designs available in the market but it is a very stressful job to choose a coffee table that fits perfectly to your living room. If you are planning to purchase a coffee table you can walk into a store and pick a coffee table but think again, a wrongly chosen coffee table could spoil the look of your entire living room. 

So what type of coffee table is best for your living room? It also depends on the kind of sofa you have! If you have a horizontal sofa, then we recommend going with a rectangular coffee table. If you have an L-shaped sofa, then we recommend going with a round or square-shaped coffee table. 

Here are a few tips to consider before choosing a Coffee Table

Oval or Round Coffee Tables:

Oval coffee tables are great at balancing form and function. Round or oval tables are useful around children because of the absence of sharp corners. They provide flexible movement and offer ample space for storing things on top. 

Rectangular Coffee Tables:

Rectangular coffee tables provide a modern look and they offer great surface space to work with. A rectangular coffee table works well for smaller rooms and is good for large seating configurations, such as large sectionals or a large sofa.

Square Coffee Tables:

They are the most practical coffee table shape. Square coffee tables provide a nice look to your living space. If you have a standard sofa so everyone can have easy access to their coffee, cocktail or late-night snack of choice.
