1. What style should I buy?

There are many styles of coffee tables out there. Some have simple minimalist designs, some are modest, futuristic, some are ornate, some have intricate designs, and some tables are incorporated with as much detail, and some are designed to give the illusion of space.

Don't buy a coffee table just because you like it or you think it will fit that extra living room space. Look at your living room theme first and choose something that does not clash with the present style or theme of the living room.

2. How big is the available space I can spare?

Yes you might have an extra space that could use a table to fill up that boring void. But first carefully measure that space or you'd end up with a table bigger than the space you have which you may not be able to use at all or you'd end up with a table that falls short of your expectations.

3. What size should my table be?

The size of the table should be proportional to the size of the sofa you're partnering it with. A table that is longer than or shorter than a sofa's length will do you no good neither does a table that is taller or shorter than the sofa coffee table.

4. Can I afford it?

There are many styles, designs, and material that are available in the market today and the price ranges from the very affordable to the very expensive. You should decide on a coffee table that fits your budget, in this economy, it's not practical to go broke just for a table.

5. What color?

Tables can come in various hues and you should buy those with colors that go well with the theme of your living room. Colors too can complete the style you have in your place, for instance those who want to evoke a rustic style, go for wood furniture with lighter stains.

6. What shape?

Tables for your coffee come in various shapes and sizes and each size can serve to stylize your living room as well as practical choices for a select group of individuals. For instance, if you have young kids at home, a round table would be perfect because there are no sharp corners to bump into plus they are perfect for playing games with the kids because it doesn't evoke feelings of taking sides.

7. Form or Function or both?

What is the purpose of buying a table for that void in your living room? There are those who buy tables to enhance the beauty of their living room, there are those who want to save space on a small apartment, and there are those who want to use a table that can also serve as storage space, which of those is yours?

8. What type of material?

There are many materials that designers use for tables these days: wood, metal, wrought iron, glass, and even Acrylex or Lucite. As to material, there are instances where you can mix and match, for instance coffee tables can come in a combination of wood and glass or of metal and glass.
Again in choosing a coffee table according to material, choose something that goes with your theme.
