We needed to replace a coffee table that had served well for 30 years, and I had noticed in the house my daughter and son in law bought, the people had 2 smaller square tables rather than a coffee table, and thought-that's smart-you can move the smaller tables around the room to where you want them at the time. Although these cubes are a very hefty-50 lbs each- so shifting them isn't in the game plan as much. But instead of my husband and I tugging at the coffee table because he's lounging at one end of the sofa and I have my spot at the other end, voila, we each have a table for our drinks, snacks, books etc without the tug of war. Plus just the right height to put your legs up as you watch tv if you want. The style is transitional, so goes with our mix of traditional (older purchases) and new. The finish is deep and rich. We bought 2, so was a bigger purchase for us, but Walmart's price was significantly lower than anyone else, so we saved quite a bit. My husband loves them. I do too-though I was looking for a more low impact look (these are not as small as you might think)- but they have won me over in their practicality and beautiful finish. Very happy.
