 Posted: Thu Jul 03, 2008 8:12 pm Post subject: Recommendations for a Coffee Table |
 |
|
We need a new Coffee Table. Live in East Lothian but expect will have to go to Edinburgh (not Ikea or Argos though). Outside these stores, is there anywhere I can get a decent dark brown or mahogany coffee table at a reasonably low price? Has to be dark to fit in with furniture, decor etc. It doesn't have to be antique or amazing, just decent and better than Ikea or Argos.
Any tips and recommendations appreciated. |

I bought a lovely chest/coffee table from the mcarthur glen outlet in linvingston. It's solid wood, dark stained and matches our unique looking bookcase... Worth a look in my opinion  |

Try Argos. There is one on the North Bridge.
They have a section for home and garden. |

hypnoscot thanks, I am regularly keeping an eye on the GT adverts. almost all my living room furniture is second hand, way I see it is as soon as you walk out the shop with something bran new, its second hand. As long as its in good nick then make no difference to me.
prufrock will check out that Lewis tip, I am regularly in St James Centre and never even noticed it before, wheres it near? |

Think it was a lil on the pricey side if I remember rightly - just under £100. Well worth the money though. |
