The detail, product by product

The most compact

[en.casa] Table Basse de Salon avec Plateau Rond Table d'Appoint Style

rund, 80 cm i diameter · Oak

This [en.casa] model with a timeless round top stays in the middle of the range in both size and price, sold at around £70, with a Oak finish that fits easily into any decorating style. Its structure, designed to be sturdy and attractive at once, has no low shelf for storing items, unlike other models from the brand. For classic everyday use, it does its job without particular trouble. The finish stays plain, with no detail that really sets it apart from the other models on the page.

[en.casa] Table Basse de Salon Gäljami Design Intemporel avec Grand Pl

100 x 55 x 44 cm · Black

With its Black shade that contrasts with the rest of the range, this [en.casa] model named Gäljami relies on a large, functional rectangular top, 100 by 55 for 44 in height, designed to hold books, magazines, drinks and decorative objects day to day. It's one of the more affordable choices in the range, at around £60. The trade-off of this large dark top: it shows dust marks more than a light finish, needing slightly more regular upkeep. The legs stay slim, with no large load allowed on them.

The cheapest

[en.casa] Table Basse Design Rectangulaire pour Salon avec Surface de

40 x 90 x 45 cm · White

This [en.casa] model, sold at around £50, sits at the bottom of the price range of the [en.casa] range shown here, with a White melamine particleboard top and a storage surface under the top. It's an excellent way to get a first impression of the brand without paying top price. At 90 by 45 for 40 in height, assembly stays simple and quick, but the finish remains very plain, with no particular manufacturing detail. That doesn't stop it doing a good job in a secondary room or a studio, where the essentials come before refinement.

[en.casa] Table Basse de Salon Design Intemporel avec Étagère de Range

90 x 50 x 41 cm · Effect Marble White

Sold at around £60, this [en.casa] model with a storage shelf comes right after the entry-level in price, with a Effect Marble White finish and clean lines. The structure stays solid day to day, but this marble-effect top scratches a little more easily than a thicker finish, worth watching if you often move heavy objects on it. At 90 by 50 for 41 in height, the wide rectangular top offers enough room for everyday items. Normal use causes no particular issue.

The largest tabletop

[en.casa] Table Basse de Salon avec Étagère Table d'Appoint avec Surfa

120 x 60 x 43 cm · Effect Marble White

Here's a [en.casa] model that dares an unusual Effect Marble White finish on this page, sold at around £80, a budget that clearly places it above the range's average. Its functional lower shelf offers handy storage space for keeping magazines and baskets within reach, at the cost of extra assembly time: the number of screws to fit exceeds that of the simpler models on the page. At 120 by 60 for 43 in height, once everything is in place, it doesn't shift and stays perfectly stable day to day.

[en.casa] Table Basse Väsas en Verre Trempé de 10 mm Grand Plateau Rec

90 x 45 x 35 cm · Green

Unlike the other five tables on the page: this [en.casa] model named Väsas, in tempered glass with a curved top, breaks with the range's usual style, in a Green shade that immediately catches the eye when entering the room. It's also, at around £150, the most expensive table in this [en.casa] selection, a price that reflects the material used. At 90 by 45 for 35 in height, its one real drawback: the glass takes up more visual floor space than wood, which reserves it for rooms with good natural light. Plan on assembling it with two people, noticeably longer than the more modest models on this page.

Round, rectangular or tempered glass: six very different tops

[en.casa] doesn't rely on a single top: the round, timeless-style model sits alongside two large functional rectangles, an entry-level melamine particleboard top, a white marble effect, and the 10 mm tempered glass top of the Väsas model with its curved top. Six different tops on one page hints at how much choice exists cheaply, and our wider budget coffee table selection continues it.

This diversity of shapes explains the general plainness of the finishes across the range: none of the six tables relies on a carved leg, which makes them easy to swap out if your taste changes.

It's a good choice for anyone who prioritises the ratio between top size and price rather than a particularly elaborate design.

Key point It's a good choice for anyone who prioritises the ratio between top size and price rather than a particularly elaborate design.

Small, medium or large top, product by product

The timeless-style round model and the Gäljami with its large rectangular top cover everyday use. The model with a storage shelf and the model with a functional lower shelf, the biggest on the page, step things up. The Väsas in tempered glass comes last on price, without being the smallest by surface area.

The choice mainly depends on the size of your room and how many people regularly use the living room.

Measure your space before deciding: a gap of just a few tens of centimetres greatly changes the everyday sense of clutter.

Melamine board, marble effect and tempered glass: the finishes product by product

The entry-level model relies on a melamine particleboard top, a simple finish but quick assembly. Both models with a shelf go for the white marble effect, which scratches a little more easily than a thicker finish.

The Gäljami model, in black, shows dust marks more than a light finish, needing slightly more regular upkeep.

The Väsas model, the only one in the selection in 10 mm tempered glass, cleans easily but its curved top takes up more visual floor space than wood.

Choosing the right height

The timeless-style round model and the model with a storage shelf stay in the upper-middle range of heights in this line-up, while the Väsas in tempered glass, noticeably lower than the others, comes closer to a side table.

Too big a gap between your sofa's seat and the table's top quickly makes it awkward to set an item down.

Without the chance to try before buying, aim for a top that sits slightly lower than your seat height.

Fitting the model with a functional lower shelf into a small living room

The model with a functional lower shelf, the biggest on the page, needs enough circulation space all around so it doesn't block the walkway.

In a more modest room, the round model or the entry-level melamine board model fit in more naturally without needing to rearrange the whole living room.

A rug helps visually define the living-room corner, whatever the size of the top chosen.

Assembly: from melamine board to tempered glass

The entry-level model in melamine particleboard assembles simply and quickly, with no tool beyond what's supplied in the box.

The model with a functional lower shelf, heavier, needs more screws to fit than the simpler models on the page.

The Väsas in tempered glass assembles with two people, noticeably longer than the wooden models in the range: the curved top needs more care when putting it in place.

Comparing the six models against each other

The Gäljami remains one of the more affordable choices in the range despite its large black rectangular top. The timeless-style round model sits in the middle in both size and price.

For a small budget, the melamine particleboard model is more than enough. For a bigger room, the model with a functional lower shelf remains the most consistent choice despite its higher price.

The Väsas in tempered glass, the most expensive in the selection, stands out for its material rather than its size.

What the [en.casa] range doesn't offer

This selection stays focused on classic round or rectangular tops and a single tempered-glass model, the Väsas: no highly elaborate metal legs across these six models, unlike other brands more focused on design.

The shades also stay fairly plain, from oak to black by way of white marble effect and the green of the Väsas, with no bright colour to liven up an already-neutral living room.

On the ground of size-to-price ratio, though, [en.casa] remains hard to beat.
