It often happens that when you saw a beautiful model in a store or on social networks, you immediately wanted the same one for yourself and rushed to buy it. A rash step can lead to you not using the table, and it will turn into a bulky object that will be more of a nuisance than useful.

Think in advance

It is much wiser to first consider how often and what exactly you are going to use your coffee table from SONGMICS HOME for. Do you like to have dinner in front of the TV while sitting on the couch? Then perhaps you need a taller model. Or do you just need somewhere to put your coffee cup and book?

Then a side table or stool will be quite enough. Or do you want to display your beautiful vases and decorative items for everyone to see? Then the model should be impressive enough to accommodate your entire collection, but at the same time not “clog” the exhibits themselves with its design.

The size

Another common mistake is missing the size of the model. A coffee table or group of tables that is too large may be too bulky for a small living room. And, on the contrary, a model that is too small in a large living room will look “short” and non-functional (since it is unlikely to fit everything you need).

When choosing a slim side table, always consider the size of the living room and adjacent furniture. In a spacious living room with a large sofa or group of sofas, it would be appropriate to use a large table or group of tables. For small living rooms, choose compact models with glass tabletops (they look visually lighter). Also, there should always be a passage between the sofa and the table so as not to impede free movement.
