A rectangle wins in front of a long straight sofa if you want a tray and a laptop at once. Measure the walk. If you clip a corner today with a cardboard stand-in, buy round.
When is a round coffee table the right buy?
When the table sits in a walk path, in front of a curved sofa, or in a tight square room where a corner would hit a passage.
What size round coffee table?
Leo Small 27.5 in, Medium 31.5 in, Large 37.4 in, heights 16.7, 18.7 and 20.7 in.
31.5 in is the default in front of a two- or three-seat sofa. 27.5 in is the small-room and nest-inner size. 37.4 in is a wide round: check 16 to 18 in of clearance to the sofa and to the TV cabinet before you fall for the diameter.
Height still follows the sofa seat. Leo Large at 20.7 in is high for a 16 in sofa; use it as the outer nest piece or beside a high seat.
Round table in a nest
Leo nests by overlap, not by disappearing. Each diameter has its own height, so the tops slide over each other by about 40 percent.
That is why a Leo nest still looks like two circles when closed. If you want the inner table gone, that is Anton, which is rectangular.
Round vs rectangular at a glance
Round: no corners, centered styling, less tabletop. Rectangle: more tabletop, corners, a long sofa match.
We do not make a marble round, a glass drum, or a lift-top.
