Actually, not all people own a big house or a large living room. Thus coffee table may be awkward since it always stands between the TV unit and sofa,and influences walking in the small living room.

Guide to Choose Coffee Tables for Small Spaces
1. Consider the size: Measurement is always the first step for home decoration and improvement. Ensure the height, length and width of the ideal coffee table. Generally, the height of coffee table would similar to sofa and the length is suggested to be about half of the sofa’s length. And remember to leave enough inches (18’’or more, suggested) between the table and sofa seat, especially if you have children.
2. Consider the shape: For a cozy living space, oval and rectangular table shape would usually work well and the round corner is a must for a family with kids. It is not absolute if the round coffee table is only featured with smaller diameter.
3. Consider the versatility: It is better to get a versatile table in the cramped space. For example, it can work as both a coffee table and side table or bedside table; or comes with stools; features with built-in storage. The multipurpose furniture is both space-saving and money-saving. The coffee table with extra seating is the best choice for entertaining guests in the small living room, as well as a flexible table with extenders.
4. Consider the budget: All shopping decisions depend on your budget. If you have limited budget, choose the items with free shipping. POVISON provides free shipping on any furniture, so shop the ideal coffee table flexibly from POVISON store based on your available budget.
