A Traditional Coffee Table

Coffee tables are normally low and short-legged to allow you to place things on top, like drinks or magazines. The coffee table is usually placed at the center of your living room set so that all your guests can easily access it.

They also come in decorative designs from colonial to ultra-modern. Many of today's coffee tables also have an extra shelf underneath for you to place magazines and books for your guests.

However, traditional coffee tables have limited functionality, aside from being just one more furniture accent and tabletop. They are also too low for you to use if you are sitting on the newer types of recliners.

And with today's busy lifestyles, the average homeowner wants to be able to do several activities at once right in one place, like watching TV, eating, reading, or writing.

The Lift Up Coffee Table Boosts Convenience

Now there are newer types of coffee tables that not only provide a tabletop for your coffee and newspapers, but can also act as your cafeteria table, reading table or even office table.

The lift up coffee table has a hinged top which you can elevate up to a few more inches, just right if you are in an upright sitting position on your recliner. The hinges keep in place, so that you don't need to worry about anything falling or slipping off the top.

What's more, most lift top coffee tables have a hidden compartment where you can store your magazines, books, videos and mail out of sight. This gives your living room a generally neater and more organized appearance.

Where to Buy Lift Up Coffee Tables

Many furniture retailers already sell the lift up coffee table. You can buy unassembled sets from the outlets and set it up yourself at home, or ask the shop to assemble it for you.

If you're a do-it-yourself person and enjoy building things, you can also buy plans for lift up coffee tables. The plans will show you a picture of the finished product and will suggest the best type of wood and other materials to buy.
