POSNORD offers just one idea, in three sizes: a round coffee table, set on three or four solid beech legs, in a Scandinavian style that favours simplicity over complex mechanisms. No drawer, no LED, no lift-top here: the scratch-resistant MDF top sits on a wooden frame that stays entirely visible, unlike lacquered tables that hide their legs under a top reaching down to the floor.
The three models also come in a nesting version, designed to stack or combine depending on the space available in your living room at any given time. It's a tight range, which makes the choice much simpler than catalogues that sometimes offer twenty similar variants, but it leaves out anyone after hidden storage or a lighting effect in their living room. For brands that go further with storage or lighting, our coffee table brands index covers the full range of makers.
This model shows 75 cm in diameter for 50.5 cm high, in a White finish: a modern, Scandinavian-style round coffee table according to POSNORD, set on three solid beech legs clearly visible under the top. The MDF top resists everyday scratches well and cleans easily, from cups set down a little quickly or children's toys dragged across it. It doesn't, however, match a solid wood top over time: a hard knock leaves a mark that solid wood would have absorbed better thanks to its natural thickness.
Same 75 cm diameter and same 50.5 cm height as the white model next to it, but this time in a Olive finish: a rarer shade for this Scandinavian-style round coffee table, according to POSNORD. The three solid beech legs give exactly the same stability as the other colourway. The MDF top stays scratch-resistant and easy to clean, as the manufacturer states, but the darker olive shade shows dust less than a lighter shade; it does, however, suit fewer living-room styles than the classic, universal white.
The most compact of the three, at 60 cm in diameter for 47.5 cm high, set on four solid beech legs rather than three: POSNORD designs it specifically as a modular nesting table, available in three sizes for use alone or combined with the other sizes in the range. Its smaller footprint suits it more to a living room that already has a main table, or a spot beside an armchair. It doesn't replace a central coffee table in front of a three-seater sofa, lacking the surface needed for a meal tray or a board game spread out.
The solid beech legs on the two Ø75 models, white and olive, explain most of the price at POSNORD: a genuine wooden frame costs more to make than a metal one, even under a cheaper MDF top. Solid beech legs explain most of the price gap here, far from this pale, porous stone that costs less to source. The gap between the two Ø75 shades is nil, white and olive sharing exactly the same diameter and the same 50.5 cm height. Beech legs cost more, whereas the grey nesting coffee table page shows how a second small top can justify the spend differently.
The Ø60 model, with four legs instead of three and a height of 47.5 cm, usually costs a little less, in line with its role as a side piece within a nesting trio rather than as the living room's main table.

MDF and beech: two materials, two approaches
Across all three models, the MDF top resists everyday scratches and cleans easily with a damp cloth, as POSNORD states: a practical material for a busy living room with children or pets. It doesn't, however, match solid wood against a hard knock, a situation where a solid top clearly absorbs the damage better. Panel tops come in many shades, and our grey or beige coffee table comparison helps you pick the one that hides daily marks.
The solid beech legs, three on the white and olive Ø75, four on the Ø60, play both an aesthetic and structural role: they carry the weight without flexing and age with a natural patina, unlike MDF, which stays unchanged unless deeply scratched.

Who the POSNORD range suits, and who it doesn't
This Scandinavian range suits a pared-back living room where the visible wood of the three or four legs plays a full part in the decor. The nesting format of the Ø60 model, designed for use alone or combined across the three available sizes, also appeals to small living rooms wanting a modular table. Pared-back rooms live or die by tone, which is why our grey or walnut coffee table guide is worth reading before ordering.
It doesn't suit anyone after enclosed storage: neither of the two Ø75 models nor the Ø60 has a drawer or hidden compartment. Here, the bare top remains the only surface available for cups, books or a games tray.

Fitting a Ø75 or Ø60 model into an already-furnished living room
The 75 cm diameter of the white and olive models slots into a sofa corner more easily than a rectangle, without demanding precise alignment with nearby furniture. That's a real advantage in a living room with irregular shapes. Round tops slot into corners neatly across brands, including those listed on the Hanah Home coffee tables page, worth a look for comparison.
Still, check the clearance all around: a 75 cm diameter can take up more floor space than a narrower rectangle of the same length, despite looking lighter than the far more compact nesting Ø60.

Three legs or four: what the number of supports changes
The two Ø75 models, white and olive, sit on three beech legs, a configuration that guarantees stable contact even on a slightly uneven floor, unlike four legs, which can sometimes end up unevenly balanced on an old, imperfect wooden floor. Three legs beat four on uneven floors, a detail also discussed on the Hawthyhome coffee tables page with its own frames.
The Ø60, more compact with its 47.5 cm height, uses four thinner legs, in keeping with its role as a nesting piece rather than a central table meant to carry a loaded meal tray several times a week.
On a thick rug, the three-legged Ø75 models generally keep their balance better than the four-legged Ø60, whose fourth support is more likely to end up slightly off the ground.

Combining the Ø60, the Ø75 white and the Ø75 olive as a set
Nothing stops you buying all three POSNORD references at once, the two Ø75 models and the nesting Ø60, to build a complete set rather than settling for a single table alone in the middle of the room. Building a matching set appeals elsewhere too, and the Homary coffee tables page offers families of pieces designed to sit together.
Placed side by side rather than stacked, the three tables form an alternative to one large central table, especially in a living room where the sofa and armchair sit at different heights, 50.5 cm for the Ø75 models, 47.5 cm for the Ø60.
It's not the most economical option, though: three separate tables cost more than a single Ø75 model, a calculation worth making before giving in to the full set.

POSNORD beech, a style that outlasts the trends
The pared-back Scandinavian style of the three POSNORD models stays stable over time: unlike a strongly marked style, neither the Ø75 white, nor the olive, nor the Ø60 goes out of fashion from one year's collections to the next.
The solid beech of the legs suits an older interior just as well as a recent flat, which makes it a purchase that's hard to regret even after a house move. Few Ø75 or Ø60 tables change mood as easily depending on the cushions or rug chosen around them.

Frequently asked questions
Can POSNORD tables be nested inside one another?
The compact model is designed as a nesting table, to combine with the larger round sizes in the range depending on the space available in your living room.
Does the MDF top hold up against water?
It withstands a spilled glass wiped up quickly, but standing moisture left too long can eventually damage the finish, unlike a glass top, which is far more indifferent to water.
Do the beech legs need any special care?
A dry cloth is enough for everyday dusting; untreated solid wood, though, doesn't like standing moisture, so avoid leaving a plant pot directly on it without protection.
Is the compact round table enough as a main coffee table?
In front of a three-seater sofa it stays small for central use in the living room; it works better as a side table or as a complement to a larger model already in place.
What's the difference between the two colours on offer?
Only the shade of the top, white or olive: the beech frame and the dimensions stay exactly identical on both versions of this same format.
Does POSNORD beech wood need any special treatment on arrival?
No, the wood arrives already treated at the factory and ready to use: a simple dust before first use is more than enough, with no oil or varnish to apply yourself.
Are POSNORD tables suitable for use on a covered terrace?
That's not their intended use: the beech wood and MDF top are designed for a dry indoor setting, not for regular exposure to the outdoor humidity of a terrace, even a covered one.
