FAQ: What size coffee table is best for small spaces?
Ideally, you want a coffee table that is about 2/3rds the length of your sofa. This size is just right because it gives you enough surface area without overwhelming the room! It’s also preferred to leave around 18 inches of space between the coffee table and your furniture to make sure there’s enough room to walk around it comfortably.
