Promising review: "This table is perfect. Good quality. Looks exactly as pictured. Delivered timely and was packed meticulously. Thank you for taking care to package well so no damage could occur in transport." —J. Smyth

Get it from Amazon for $249.99 (also available in silver).

Promising review: "Very easy to assemble. The wood has a nice finish that makes it look more expensive than it is!" —Payton

Get it from Target for $250 (available in two finishes).

Promising review: "I wanted a lift-top table that was both round (so my big dog can 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

Get it from Amazon for $91.02+ (available in five finishes).

Get it from Amazon for $112.87 (available in three finishes).

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

Get it from Amazon for $58.99+ (clip the coupon on the product page to save 5%; available in two sizes and in five colors).

Promising review: "It's wood! Not particle board! I was shocked to find a small table like this on Amazon that's actually made of wood at this price. This is a really cute MCM piece that's attractive, easy to build, sturdy, and well-designed." —Nicole R.

"Absolutely love this gorgeous table. Perfect for small spaces and it’s definitely SOLID WOOD! It’s got a pretty mid-century vibe and goes well with all the rustic furniture we also bought from Amazon." —Rosalie Flummer

Get it from Amazon for $49.83.

Promising review: "It looks unique and beautiful. Loving it so far! Very easy to assemble." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $79.99 (available in two styles).

Promising review: "I love this coffee table. It’s perfect for my small space! Very easy to put together." —Phyllis

"This is a great table at a great price. The natural wood and the mid-century shape are attractive. The legs attached easily and are sturdy. The simple design is exactly what I wanted — no shelves to attract clutter. This is my first Wayfair purchase but it won’t be my last." —Alida

Get it from Wayfair for $139.99 (originally $199.99).

Promising reviews: "Easy to assemble and very sturdy. The glass is thick and sits tightly on the frame. It’s perfect for a small living room space. Would recommend!" —Amanda

"This table is wonderful for our little living room! It brightens it up and even makes the space look more open. It's also great quality!" —Mary D.

Get it from Amazon for $69.99+ (available in two sizes and 12 finishes).

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 $199.51+ (available in two sizes).

I've had this table for about six months and I love it! I live in a really compact apartment and didn't want to take up living room floorspace with a bulky or fixed coffee table. I love this lil' guy cause I can wheel it up to the couch and use it as a desk, position it over my ottoman when I want it completely pushed out of the way, and even push it around my living room when I'm cleaning and need a temporary surface to store stuff on.

Promising review: "This table is good-looking…sturdy material, good rolling castors. Simple to put together, just screw-on the castors. We roll it from chair to couch depending on our needs." —Theresa

Get it from Amazon for $141.89.

Promising reviews: "Great for small space for coffee table and extra seating." —Lisa

"Perfect as foot rests, extra seating, and coffee table book storage! So happy we purchased these…exactly what our reading room needed." —Elizabeth

Get it from Ikea for $94.99.

Promising review: "Perfect size for an apartment. They are super light and you can easily move them around the room if you need them as end tables." —Emily Wright

Get the two-piece set from Amazon for $175.99 (available in six styles/finishes).

Promising reviews: "Really like the design of this product. Versatile with the tray top lifting off. Lightweight and easy to move around. Very well priced." —Davina

"As most people seem to agree, this product is a superb design. Minimalist, also works well with industrial theme. Easy to move, yet stable. Excellent value for money." —Kate

Get it from Ikea for $19.99 (available in three colors).

Promising review: "This is the perfect addition to our small family room. The reverse side is a tray and the top is a warm medium brown stain. Great storage for a couple of throws." —Deborah

Get it from Wayfair for $141.99+ (originally $189; available in two table top colors and five base colors).

Get it from West Elm for $299.

Promising review: "Color, shape, and quality look just as described. It's not too big, but it provides decent storage. I just moved to a small apartment, and I needed ways to 'hide' some of the stuff I don't use regularly but don't want to get rid of. I was able to fit two fluffy bed pillows, with a little bit of room to spare for other loose items. I'm using it as a side table next to the couch for now. No assembly required." —Maria

Get it from Target for $100 (available in two colors).

Promising review: "Very easy to assemble. It's lightweight because the top is hollow core. It's a bright white melamine laminate with a dull finish. Easy to clean. Perfect fit a small space and fits storage cubes under it really well." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $39.98.

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 $81.70+ (available in two sizes and three finishes).

Get the set from The Novogratz for $169 (also available in white marble).

Promising review: "I am IN LOVE with this table. It's solid and gorgeous. Just the right size and mid-century look! I was worried the day it arrived, because it was pouring down rain, but this table was not affected in the least! I'm still in awe at the quality for price. Thank you! I'll be purchasing from this company again!" —Thomas B. Mccaffety

Get it from Amazon for $70.92.

Promising review: "I love this versatile stool! It’s stylish, well-made, and extremely easy to assemble. When used for seating, it’s comfortable and sturdy; when used as an end table it adds such a fun design element for any space. The storage is also a bonus if you are living in small space like I am. I highly recommend!" —Melissa

Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in two sizes and four colors).

Promising reviews: "I LOVE this table! The quality far exceeds the price tag. The faux marble top is beautiful! Very glossy and looks really close to the real thing. It was really easy to put together, took less than 20 minutes. I am so happy with my purchase!" —PrincessJas9

"I love it. It looks better than the picture and the size is perfect. Good for a small space, easy to assemble, and sturdy." —Albaraa

Get it from Amazon for $78.35+ (available in two styles).

Promising review: "I absolutely love these storage baskets. We didn’t want a big coffee table in our living room to have to walk around. We love to snuggle up with blankets when we sit to watch TV and I hate when they just pile up on the couch so these are wonderful little storage baskets for blankets." —Twix

Get them from Amazon for $77.65+ (available in various styles and sets of two or three).

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 slowly closing hydraulic shocks are great. 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 my clothes." —Mammynun

Get it from Amazon for $239.99+ (available in 13 colors; clip the coupon on the product page to save $20).

Promising review: "Took 10 minutes to assemble, looks high-end, and just perfect for small spaces!" —Kevin S.

Get it from Amazon for $59.97+ (available in four finishes).

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

Get it from Amazon for $109.99 (available in three colors).

Promising review: "I love it when I run into rare findings online and this side table is one of them. It's the perfect table for small spaces! Beautiful, sturdy, and stylish. I am very satisfied with my purchase. It was very easy to assemble and, best of all, it came very well packaged. This is a true rare finding in the bargain shopping category." —Luke

Get it from Amazon for $69.98+ (available in three sizes).

Promising review: "I don’t have and prefer not to use a coffee or end table. This is the perfect extra touch to have something where I can put down my drink or plate of snacks." —Yael Neubauer

Get it from Amazon for $27.89+ (available in five finishes; clip the coupon on the product page to save 20%).

Promising review: "This is a much better piece of furniture than I ever expected to get. It’s solid wood — even the panel put on the back is nice. And as soon as I ordered it, I had been dreading putting it together, and all I had to do was screw the legs on. The drawers glide, the wood is top-notch, and it’s lovely. Great purchase!" —Kindle Customer

Get it from Amazon for $269.

Promising review: "Love this table! If you’re looking for something that’s easy on the eye, but durable during the toddler stages, this is it! We switched out or glass coffee table until our little guy is a bit older, and this was a great replacement!" —KB

Get it from Target for $42 (available in three wood finishes).

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

Get it from Amazon for $92.99+ (available in three colors).

Promising review: "If you’re thinking about it just do it!!! Love this table, super stable and is the perfect size. Just a really freaking cool table." —Billylibba
