Coffee Tables

Choosing the right coffee table for your living room

A coffee table helps bring your living room together, adding both style and practicality. Whether you’re furnishing a compact space or a larger family room, the right design should suit your layout and work well with the way you use the room.

At Oak Furnitureland, our collection includes coffee tables in a range of sizes, styles and finishes, making it easy to find a piece that complements your home. For a coordinated look, pair your coffee table with matching TV units, side tables and other living room furniture. If you’re looking for finishing touches, you can also read our guide on how to style your coffee table.

Why choose Oak Furnitureland coffee tables?

Our coffee tables are designed to combine lasting quality with everyday style. With a wide choice of classic and contemporary designs, it’s easy to find a piece that works beautifully in your space while offering the practicality your living room needs.

Many of our coffee tables are crafted from solid wood, or thoughtfully designed mixed materials, giving you furniture that looks good and works hard in busy homes.

Coffee table materials and finishes

The material you choose can shape the overall look of your living room. Oak coffee tables are a timeless option, valued for its warmth, durability and natural character, while many of our designs are crafted to highlight the beauty of the wood grain.

For a more contemporary feel, a glass coffee table can help your space look lighter and more open. A marble coffee table adds a polished, refined finish, while a black coffee table is a great choice for a bolder, modern look. Whether you prefer natural wood or mixed materials, the right finish can help tie the room together.

Coffee table shapes and sizes to suit your space

Choosing the right shape and size is just as important as choosing the style. In smaller living rooms, a round coffee table or oval design can work well, helping the room feel more open and easier to move around. In larger spaces, rectangular coffee tables are often a practical choice, especially in front of a longer sofa.

Your coffee table should feel in proportion with your seating and leave enough space to move around comfortably. If you’re unsure which size will work best, you can see our guide on what size should your coffee table be.

Coffee tables with storage for everyday practicality

A coffee table with storage is a practical way to keep your living room neat without compromising on style. It gives you a handy place to store everyday items such as books, magazines, remotes and blankets, helping your space feel more organised.

If you want extra flexibility, a nest of tables is another useful option. They give you additional surface space when needed, then tuck neatly away when not in use.

How to care for your coffee table

With a little regular care, your coffee table can keep looking its best for years to come. Using coasters and placemats can help protect the surface, while routine dusting and gentle cleaning will help maintain the finish of wood, glass and marble designs.
