Coffee tables sorted by size, so the table fits sofa & room
The right size is almost more important than design for coffee tables. A table that is too small gets lost in the room, a table that is too large blocks walkways and quickly looks bulky. That’s why we have sorted our coffee tables by size, so you can find models faster that fit your sofa and room size.
A rough rule of thumb is: The length of the coffee table should be about half to two thirds of the sofa width. In smaller living rooms, compact models or two smaller tables often work better than a very large one. In spacious rooms, tables may be somewhat wider and longer so the proportions to the sofa are right.
In this overview, you can specifically filter by coffee table sizes and thus find variants faster that fit your living room, from narrow models for two-seaters to generous tables for corner sofas.

Which coffee table fits your living room?
You want to buy a new coffee table but are unsure which size is ideal? Then you are in the right place. We show you how to find the perfect living room table by size – tailored to your living space, sofa size, and style. Because whether small and compact or large and striking: the dimensions make the difference.
Why is the size of a coffee table so important?
A coffee table is much more than a surface. It shapes the look of your living room, determines the distance to the sofa – and thus your everyday comfort. If the table is too large, the room feels cluttered. If it’s too small, functionality is missing. Therefore, you should definitely pay attention to proportions when buying.
What living room table sizes are there – and what are they suitable for?

Detailed information on selecting your perfect coffee table is summarized in our Coffee Table Guide.
How do you find the right coffee table size for your home?
A proven guideline: The living room table should be about two thirds of the width of your sofa. You should leave about 40 cm space between sofa and table so you can get up or walk by comfortably. This distance is also useful to the TV wall or other furniture.
Our tip for calculation:
-
Sofa length × 0.66 = optimal coffee table length
-
Sofa seat height ± 5 cm = suitable table height
If you have a large sofa with chaise lounge or living landscape, it can be a larger table – e.g., 140 × 80 cm or more.

FAQ: Coffee tables sorted by size
What size should a coffee table have in relation to the sofa?
As a guideline: A coffee table should be about half to two thirds the width of the sofa. This makes the seating area harmonious without the table looking too small or oversized. For corner sofas, the table can be somewhat larger to use the space effectively.
How high should a coffee table ideally be?
The ideal height of a coffee table is usually between 40 and 50 cm. The table should be roughly at the sofa seat height or slightly below. This allows drinks, books, or remote controls to be reached comfortably without obstructing the view into the room.
How much distance should I leave between coffee table and sofa?
A distance of 40 to 60 cm between coffee table and sofa is ideal. The table is then close enough to place items comfortably but still leaves enough space to walk by or get up. In very small rooms, the distance can be slightly less but should not be too tight.
Which coffee table sizes are suitable for small living rooms?
In small living rooms, compact coffee tables with 80-100 cm length often work best. Narrower tables or two smaller models side by side are also a good solution. It is important that walkways remain free and the room does not look cluttered.
Which coffee table fits a corner sofa?
For corner sofas, somewhat longer tables with 120-150 cm length or combined solutions of two tables are suitable. This keeps the area usable without parts of the seating group looking "empty." The free distance of 40-60 cm to the sofa is also important here.
What role does table width play?
The width determines how much surface area is available and how the table appears in the room. In narrow rooms, models with 50-60 cm width are comfortable; in larger living areas, tables with 70-80 cm width can be sensible. Using size filters, you can quickly find suitable combinations.
Why are solid wood coffee tables so popular?
Solid wood coffee tables are especially durable, stable, and appear very natural due to their lively grain. Unlike coated panels, they can be easily sanded down and re-oiled or lacquered if they get worn. Each table has its own character and becomes even more beautiful over time.
Can I have the size of a coffee table customized?
In many cases, coffee tables can be adapted in certain dimensions or made to measure. Depending on the model, length, width, or height can be individually adjusted to fit your room. A personal consultation helps find the right solution.
