Our reviews for the best living room tables/coffee tables

 

This coffee table is the standout from all our living room tables that we reviewed in 2018.  Not only is this coffee table gorgeous it’s shelf adds both function and refinement.  The Hickory shelf can both be easily inserted or removed to add a lot more storage or functional space.  The attention to detail by the craftsman of this table will make you want to gasp as you open the box.

Here is a little bit of how each table is made.  Each table is unique as Hickory slabs are cut from the Ozark forests of Missouri to give each living room table a different unique look. From the time the tree is cut the wood requires special handling. The wood is processed and then is Kiln dried before the Ozark craftsmen start their work.  The thickness of the slabs begins at about 2 inches and the craftsman carve their way to around 1 ¾ inches thick.  The craftsman also leave the live edge of the slab leaving a natural and elegant piece of furniture for you to enjoy for a long time.

The legs of the table or made from ¾ inch cooper pipe that are torched together with ½ inch diagonal cooper struts. The copper fittings are then secured with cotter pins through the cooper pipe and fittings creating an solid and easy to assemble base to your beautiful living room table.

LeisureMod Imperial Glass Top Triangle

Our next living room table piece is literally a piece of art.  This coffee table is a replica of Sculptor Isamu Noguchi table.  Isamu Noguchi created his distinctive table by joining a curved, wood base with a freeform glass top.  This combination of sculptural form and everyday function has made the Noguchi table a timeless classic element in homes and offices since its introduction in 1948.

This perfect Noguchi table replication consists of three basic parts.  A beautiful thick glass top and two interlocking wood base pieces in a variety of finishes (Black, Cherry, Dark Walnut, Natural Wood, White).  The heavy glass rests on two curved solid wood legs that interlock to form a tripod for self-stabilizing support. This living room table is widely considered to be the perfect combination of sculptural style and practical function. This replica of the Noguchi Style Table will uphold a variety of objects in a professional reception area or in the home. This exceptional reproduction is made from the highest quality materials and workmanship to provide you with countless years of enjoyment.

Only quality materials were used in constructing this timeless coffee table. The top of this coffee table is made of tempered glass 3/4-inch thick with a square honed edge.  The glass is very heavy and has a very easy to clean surface.  The base on this modern living room table consists of two interlocking solid European hardwood frame pieces.  The paint on the European hardwood is hand applied to ensure the best quality.  Also the color of the paint is translucent so the grain is able to show through the stain.  Also the wood on the base has had 5 coats of Ultra Violet Light cured poly-urethane applied for a glass like finish.  This makes the wood highly scratch resistant with a shine that should never need waxing.

Our final take is this is this is a one of a kind coffee table which is a copy of a famous mid century modern classic piece the Noguchi.  Many people have admitted it is very hard to distinguish from the “authentic” Noguchi and this piece is the best combination of quality and price.  If you are into the modern look then you can’t do much better unless you pay a lot more money.

PROS:

  • Extremely high quality heavy glass
  • Noguchi replica with the best combo of quality and price
  • Variety of colored bases to choose from (Black, Cherry, Dark Walnut, Natural Wood, White).
  • Comes packaged well from manufacturer (comes in a crate)
  • Easy to assemble if done right

CONS:

  • Comes with no assembly instructions and then ones that do come with instructions are terrible
  • If base not setup right could be a little unstable. Best to go to original piece manufacturers website to get the assembly instructions
  • Could be dangerous around young children
