Buying A Square Coffee Table

Buying a coffee table can be an enjoyable experience

, but there are a few things you should think about when making this purchase. This article will help you through this process.

Budget - Know your limitations on what you are able to spend. You may end up finding a coffee table for fairly cheap, but setting a maximum price will not only keep you from getting something you cannot afford, it will make your decision easier by eliminating certain price ranges, thus giving you fewer choices. You can find many good deals within your local newspaper ads. Also, be careful for financing deals. While these are nice and allow you to spread your payments out over time, you may be paying up to twice as much in the end.

Where to buy - Most big retailers will offer coffee tables in their store, but the selection will most likely be fairly limited. If you want more options, then you should go for actual furniture stores, not general retail stores. You can find discount furniture stores, outlet furniture stores, name-brand furniture stores, and luxury furniture stores. All of these will offer a large variety of choices based upon your predetermined budget. The furniture in these stores will typically be better quality and they will offer you more options like your choice of material, custom finishes, and custom configurations. Most furniture stores will offer free delivery if you purchase a certain amount of furniture, which typically ranges from $500 - $1000 total. It does not hurt to ask. In addition, some places with either offer 0% financing or free delivery, so choose what option would be best for you.

If you have a smaller budget, you may want to stay away from the furniture stores and go directly to your local retail store. You may need to shop around a little more to find the table you are looking for, but you will most likely end up paying less. You may find a display unit that is for sale at a discounted price, or an open box item that is on sale.

If you feel even more adventurous, you can check out your neighborhood thrift store. You would be surprised at the quality of furniture you may end up finding there. Most donated furniture has been rarely used or replaced with an upgraded piece of furniture. If it is too nice to go on a curb as trash, you can probably find it in a thrift store.

Using these few simple tips can help make your coffee table shopping experience brief and enjoyable.
