1 Answer
What is the table in the living room called?
What the table in a living room is called depends on its design. Low tables placed in front of sofas are coffee tables, while taller rectangular or oval tables placed behind sofas or along walls are console tables. Tall narrow tables positioned beside sofas, loveseats and chairs are end tables if they have small tops or side tables if they have larger tops.
