When I first moved out into my own apartment, I did not have any furniture of my own. The only thing that I had were my clothes, and a few other items that I brought from my room back at my parent’s place. I must have been a really sorry sight during my first night there at the apartment. The first few days that I spent there, all I did was take care of the way that it looked. I bought a few pieces of furniture that I could afford, which was not much. I had very little money back then, and so the pieces I bought were the most basic I could find. I got myself an old sofa which became my bed as well. While I was out shopping, I came across a plastic coffee table.
I guess, I was like most people back then, I thought that plastic furniture was cheap and low, something that I would never stoop so low to buying. But that plastic table that I saw made me think twice. It looked real nice and neat. Cheap or low would be the last adjectives that I would use for it. I was really surprised that here was plastic furniture that looked as good as that. It carried an elegance with its simple lines that you would think could only be achieved with wooden pieces.
To cut the story short, I bought that plastic coffee table, and as it turned out, it was a perfect match for my sofa. I am still using it today, and because of it I have completely changed my view when it comes plastic furniture. I now know that they can be a valuable addition to any home setting. I have even started using other types of plastic furniture like chairs, and shelves. Plastic has the distinct advantage over other materials of being lightweight and easy to clean. So if you need some furniture for your home then why don’t you try plastic pieces? They can provide you with what you need when it comes to home furnishings, and they are often less expensive than glass, wood or metal furniture and they’ll last just as long if not longer. Plus, they’re easy to maintain.
Here are some of the best plastic coffee tables that I have seen in the market today:
Lack Coffee Table White- This table from Ikea has the usual functionality that you’d expect from the pieces made by that furniture maker. Simple and elegant, it has a separate shelf where you can keep magazines and other reading materials neatly stacked. It can add an air of neatness to the room. You can get it for about $20 from Ikea. You can visit their website at Ikea.
Antoinette Acrylic Coffee Table Clear- If you want something new to give a certain edge to your living room, then try out this clear coffee table that adds a distinctive style to your place and looks more expensive than it is. It is made from tough acrylic that can handle a lot of punishment and so it is safer than glass and less heavy. Get it for as low as $280.
Don’t deprive yourself of the chance of getting the benefits of using plastic furniture. With the way that they are being designed today, you could easily forget that they are made from plastic.
