Rules for choosing a coffee round table

A table is an irreplaceable piece of furniture that can be found in any home. Such furniture is installed not only in the kitchen or in the dining area, but also in the living room, especially when it comes to round coffee tables.

The pluses of round coffee tables include:

• design... A properly selected round table can soften the interior and make it more sophisticated. The main thing is to correctly choose the shade and material of the product;
• security... Rounded table models are as safe as possible. This is because they have no sharp corners to hit. This quality is especially important if children live in the house;

• range... There are many varieties of rounded tables on the market today. You can choose a worthy option for absolutely any interior;
• space saving... This advantage can only be attributed to small tables or extendable models. Such designs do not take up much space and look very attractive. It is better to appeal to more impressive structures for owners of spacious dwellings;
• practicality... Many consumers note the practicality of such tables. This is especially true for transformable options, which when folded look compact, and when unfolded they turn into comfortable and spacious furniture;
• convenience... Round tables are more convenient to use, as all objects can be placed on them so that you do not have to drag along the entire tabletop.

Despite the advantages, such tables also have disadvantages:

• the size. A large round table cannot be matched to a small room. Such models look more bulky, even if painted in airy white;
• location. The bad thing about a round table is that it cannot be placed near a wall. If you nevertheless placed it in such a place, then it will be less convenient to use it and fewer people will fit behind it;
• placement of items. Some users note that it takes some getting used to the lack of corners of the tabletop, since from a rounded surface you can accidentally drop something on the floor and break / break.

Let's consider all types of rounded tables and get acquainted with their main characteristics:

• magazine... Otherwise, such a small but elegant table is called a coffee table. Such options are most often placed in the living room opposite a soft corner (armchairs and a sofa). Coffee tables can be not only round, but also oval. This furniture comes in handy when you receive guests in the hall, as you can comfortably sit behind it and have a cup of tea / coffee in a pleasant company. These models are produced not only on one or four legs, but also on casters, which makes them very mobile. Coffee tables can be easily removed to a new place without harming the floor;

• attached... These compact models are designed to sit on the sides of the sofa (near the armrests). They most often have lighting fixtures, decorative objects, flowers or framed photographs;

• baby... These round tables are a great solution for a child's room.They are not only safe, as they do not have sharp corners, but also very convenient to use. For such models, young users can engage in reading books, drawing, modeling and other interesting things;

• transformable... Such round tables today occupy a leading position in the furniture market. When folded, they have small dimensions and fit easily even into very modest rooms in terms of footage. And if you spread them out, then many people can easily fit behind them, without interfering with each other;

• garden... Round tables are also used in the arrangement of personal plots. Such structures must be made of high-quality and wear-resistant materials, since they will be constantly under the influence of negative environmental factors.

Modern coffee tables are made from a variety of materials with their own pros and cons. For example:

• wooden. They are the most environmentally friendly, beautiful and durable. In the production of furniture, such species as oak, alder, hevea, wenge, birch, pine, maple, larch and mahogany are used. Such models are expensive, but they serve for a long time and enrich the interior. The only drawback of wood products is that they need to be periodically lubricated with special antiseptics so that the material does not crack or dry out;

• MDF, chipboard. Tables made from this raw material are much cheaper, but often imitate solid wood. They look much simpler and are not as environmentally friendly as natural models. In addition, chipboard contains dangerous formaldehydes that negatively affect human health. You can protect yourself from their influence with veneer upholstery;

• metal. Metal copies are rightfully recognized as the most durable and wear-resistant. These models are not afraid of deformation and loss of presentation. As a rule, such options are installed in more modern interiors. The disadvantages of metal tables are that they are heavy and always have a cool surface, which is not very pleasant to touch;

• plastic. Are the cheapest. Such options are lightweight, unpretentious and painted in absolutely any color. It is worth noting that plastic easily breaks and scratches, fades in direct sunlight, and often has dangerous toxins in its composition;

• glass. These tables are beautifully designed. It is recommended to choose durable tempered glass models. The downside of such specimens is their soiling. Traces from hands and dishes easily remain on the glass surface.

The round table can have absolutely any color, but it is worth highlighting the most popular options:

• black and white;
• beige;
• models in luxurious wenge color;
• tables in mahogany shade;

• gray;
• plain with chrome plated base;
• tables in all shades of brown;
• unpainted natural wood products.

A round table today can be chosen for any style.

• classic. In such an ensemble, furniture made of natural wood of a valuable species will look most successful. Such a table should be solid and large. It may contain carved elements, but only in small quantities;

• vintage. For a vintage style, you should also choose wooden models with an artificially aged surface, scuffs or craquelure. The decor of such furniture can be elegant and catchy;

• high tech. In this modern direction, a table made of metal and glass should be used. It may also contain chrome parts. Carved and elegant details should be discarded;

• minimalism. In a minimalist interior, a laconic table will look great, devoid of large decor or murals. The design should be as simple and unobtrusive as possible;
