A coffee table is a low, flat table typically placed in front of a sofa or seating area in a living room. It is used for holding drinks, snacks, remote controls, books, or decorative items. Coffee tables come in a variety of styles, shapes, and materials, such as wood, glass, or metal, to complement the room's décor. They are often the central piece of furniture in a living room, providing both functionality and aesthetic appeal. Coffee tables can also include additional features, such as storage underneath, to help organize small items and keep the area tidy.
