Bottom Line

This stylish table looks more expensive than it actually is.

Pros

The glass legs give this table a charming floating effect, and the tempered glass surface looks great. For a less expensive modern coffee table, this is an excellent choice. Comes in five color choices and measures 44"L x 22"W x 16"H.

Cons

The tempered glass surface can be difficult to clean.
