Can anyone find a coffee table that meets my requirements? UPDATE

I think the pedestal one is more unique and interesting. Is that the same one I linked to above? I also agree with PP that it will be easier to vacuum around!

It is the one that you linked to!

Oh, wow, interesting comments. I actually much prefer the one with the chunky legs to the one on the left with the more spindly legs so I'm glad that people all prefer that one, too. As for the pedestal vs the one with the legs, it's about an even split, so that's no help!

ETA: Which style of table do you think will be the most classic and less likely to become dated?

I think the pedestal style is much more likely to become dated than the 4 leg style.

I agree. 4 legs is a classic design.

So this is my thought too. My DH really likes the pedestal and thinks it is much more interesting but I like the 4 leg style. That's why I'm reaching out to you all to get opinions.

My parents have had a table similar to the middle one in their family room for more than 20 years. It doesn’t look dated IMO.

Honestly, I think they both lean towards older time periods. The pedestal looks a little more 60s/70s, but with a twist with the wood colors and the heavier legged one looks more 80s/farmhouse/rustic. So, it's going to depend on your decorating style preferences for that one.

That's why I've had such a hard time finding what I want. The style now is different. But I figure good wood pieces are timeless, provided I choose a timeless style.
