1. A solid wood coffee table with a rattan-covered drawer that says "I'm fancy," but also "Yes, I do serve as a footrest during your The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City binges." There's an open shelf for displaying items and a closed drawer for stashing away your must-haves.
2. A circular lift top table for marrying convenience with the look of luxury. It's the table equivalent of a magic trick; one minute, it's a sophisticated spot for your lattes, and then voilà, elevated to your laptop's personal workspace.
Promising review: "I wanted a lift-top table that was both round (so my big dog could walk around it without getting stuck) and small enough for my space, and this was really the only one I could find. I’m very happy with it. My husband and I lift it up and eat dinner while watching Netflix once or twice a week. It isn’t soft close, but it also won’t pinch your fingers. Just hold onto it when closing it, or it will slam down." —Bbqsauce

Promising review: "Honestly, a really nice table for an affordable price! Our friends were shocked when we told them how much it was; they expected it would cost $300+! The best part is the sliding side of the table where we keep our remotes and other stuff. It helps keep the top of the table clean but is also super functional. Love it." —Ceep

Promising review: "I rarely write reviews, and when I say rarely, I mean this is my first review. Let me just say that putting this coffee table together was the highlight of my boyfriend’s and my day. It was simple and quick (and fueled by a large amount of Colorado beer, woo!) and looks divine in our living space. I fit 35 winter jackets in there, along with a 25-lb bag of cat food, a comforter, and my great-aunt Winifred (JK). If you’re looking for style and storage — look no further and order this exceptional piece." —kkravitsky

I'll be purchasing from this company again!" —Thomas B. Mccaffety

Promising review: "It’s very nice and has plenty of storage! Initially, it's a bit hard to pull up and down, can't do it with one hand or from one side; you have to evenly pull up and push down from both sides. For the price, it's surprisingly great." —Ana

Promising review: "I was a little bit cautious when I found an ottoman for $90, but I was absolutely blown away when I received this! It feels very sturdy. I was able to assemble it myself within about five minutes with the provided Allen wrench. The faux leather top looks and feels very nice; like something you’d find in a furniture store for triple the price. I bought this so that my husband and I could use it as a footrest when we sit on the couch together, and both of our legs fit on it perfectly. I’m extremely happy with my purchase." —Savannah Berry

22. An acrylic coffee table that seamlessly blends the line between minimalism and functional furniture. This piece is a, *ahem*, clear winner for those looking to inject a splash of modern elegance into their living space. Its sleek, transparent design creates an illusion of more space while providing a sturdy surface for your decor and daily essentials.
Promising review: "I really like this table. It’s a nice low-profile, smaller coffee table for a small living room or a sectional sofa, and for me that is perfect. It’s a nice thick acrylic, which means that yes it will scratch, but it will not shatter if your cat runs into it. That’s the main reason I chose acrylic over glass, but glass may be a bit better if you don’t have kids or a pet since it’s more scratch-proof. Overall, I like this table and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a smaller table that leaves a room looking open." —Rain
Get it from Amazon for $209.49+ (available in three sizes).
23. Or a tempered glass coffee table in the same shape if you like the curvy transparent look but want a material that won't scratch as easily.

Very satisfied with purchase." —rk
Get it from Amazon for $197.99+ (available in four finishes).

Promising review: "This coffee table is the best thing ever if you eat on the couch in front of a TV. It's well built, is packaged so it will arrive undamaged, and is better than a 'regular' coffee table in every respect. The top is easy to open, and the hydraulic shocks are slowly closing. The storage is useful for things that you want nearby but not sitting out (extra remotes, etc.). The opening top is the real star... it's like you're eating at your kitchen table. There's less crumbs on the floor and less salsa on my clothes." —Mammynun
Get it from Amazon for $169.99+ (available in 14 finishes/styles).
30. A hammered metal tray table if you're looking to add a touch of artisanal charm to your home. This table's surface and style is a nod to Moroccan design, so give it a try if you're looking for something that looks like you picked it up when you were on one of your super cool international trips.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this table. It took two minutes to assemble. It's very sturdy and the metal is thick so will not bend or warp. The style is so modern but would really go with any style decor. The size is perfect! I'm using it as a coffee table in my apartment, and it doesn't obscure the entire sofa so will be easy to vacuum around and move." —Colleen Williams
Get it from Amazon for $139.99+ (available in two sizes and four finishes).

32. A rustic lift-top coffee table to achieve the farmhouse aesthetic. It's as practical as it is pretty — the bottom shelf is tall enough to hold most storage baskets.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Chelsea Stuart has this coffee table and loves it: "I've owned this coffee table for close to two years now and have been nothing but happy with it. Assembly was time-consuming but straightforward, and the piece feels solid. My partner and I eat dinner off the lift-top most evenings, and it still looks as good as the day we got it (though admittedly I'm a bit anal about coaster usage). And all that storage!!! Despite the many, many board games, miscellaneous cords, gaming controllers, and remotes that have taken up residence, this coffee table still has room to spare. A HUGE asset in my NYC apartment!"
Promising review: "I love the look and size of this table! The storage area is great for hiding my mail and other small items. I put this together without any problems! It seems sturdy and I don't have any issues with the lift. I was also able to use my own baskets underneath that are 9" in height! The only thing I wish it had was stickers to hide the screw holes on each side. Other than that, I would recommend this coffee table." —Kristy

34. A solid wood rustic coffee table with a distressed wood finish. Whether you're aiming for a cozy farmhouse vibe or a chic industrial look, this table's style makes it a great addition to any decor.
Promising review: "I wanted something relatively small for a condo, with a classic design that blended in rather than stood out, and that had storage for books, remotes, cocktail napkins, etc. I also didn't want to spend too much money. This table (in gray) is perfect. I assembled it by myself too! This doesn't look like a $500 piece of furniture — because it isn't. I wish there was one more layer of paint on the top so the wood grain was less visible. But all in all, this was a good purchase and will last a few years." —leora
Get it from Amazon for $135.96+ (available in four colors).
35. And a robust circular coffee table that demands your attention. If you have a decent amount of space and an interior that's sort of lacking in the fun department, this would be a great way to add some pizzazz.
