I don't know about you, but I've been putting off buying a coffee table for literal years. I know it would be adorable on our fluffy rug and would make late-night snacks and cups of herbal tea so much more relaxed, but because stylish ones tend to be on the spendy side, it's always felt like a nice-to-have instead of a furniture essential.
But Wayfair sales been tempting me, I'm not going to lie. With a selection of thousands of coffee tables always on sale, securing a piece to pull my living room together feels like it could actually be achievable.
If you're with me and looking to add a coffee table to your cart to bring your living room to the next level, scroll on. While a majority are under $250, the more spendy options do have some amazing features that are worth splurging on if you can. With that being said, every single one of these popular coffee tables are under $800.

Expert tips when buying a coffee table
Coffee tables are pretty much the centerpiece of your living room, and we know shopping for one on a time-crunch like Way Day can be kind of overwhelming, especially when there are thousands of stylish coffee tables available on Wayfair's site.
So if you're totally lost on where to start, Matthew Alleva, head of accent, entertainment, and office at Wayfair is here to help. Start by narrowing down your choices by measuring your space and pinpointing what your must-haves are.
“One of the most important considerations for coffee table shoppers is the size of their space,” says Alleva. “Customers should also keep in mind whether they are interested in any particular functionality such as built-in storage, a lift top, or table top durability.”
In terms of style, Alleva notes that modern and industrial coffee tables are currently among the most popular on Wayfair, with an uptick in interest for glam and midcentury styles as well. Rectangular coffee tables remain the most sought-after, but rounded tables are on the rise with the most searches on the site.
