7 Sustainable Coffee Tables To Upgrade Your Living Room

Form & Function For Every Space

Coffee tables function for both work and play, holding laptops, drinks, keys, and everything in between. However, they’re often made of cheap materials affecting their durability and quality, or are not considered safe for the home due to off-gassing which can particularly affect pets and children.

So if you’re hoping to upgrade your living room to a more sustainable space, we’ve found coffee tables that are sustainably made and made to last. You’ll find plenty of responsibly sourced materials and eco-conscious practices, and none of the danger or disappointment. 

And while you’re revamping your space, why not add some sustainable sofas and energy-efficient lighting?


1. Burrow

Best For | Storage coffee table
Our Pick
| Carta Coffee Table
Price Range
| $495–$795

Alongside shelves, rugs, and the internet’s favorite couch, Burrow offers coffee tables that are made in the USA using responsibly sourced walnut and oak. Our pick, the Carta Coffee Table, is inspired by Japanese compartmentalization and acts as both surface and storage. You can store knickknacks like remotes and chargers inside for a clear space, and the trays are removable to hold plates or laptops. Burrow makes sustainable living easier and more functional.

2. Inside Weather

Best For | Round, oval, or triangular tables
Our Pick
| Almond Hayes Coffee Table in Latte
Price Range | $249–$474

We love Inside Weather’s zero-inventory model, which minimizes waste by making each piece to order in their California Crafthouse, then shipping directly to your door. No middlemen, no markups, and most importantly, no unwanted inventory stacking up. We love the Hayes collection, which has a customizable storage pocket and lid to keep magazines, books, and extra coasters on hand but out of sight. Their signature FSC Certified plywood is topped with an eco-solvent finish, and any excess material is recycled from each wood sheet, sometimes back into their own designs!
