Thanks for all the votes! It seems like the rectangular #1 or #5 in an oval (or maybe even round) are the front runners right now. Those are probably my front runners, too. I found another furniture store in the area that has the first table shown on their website, so I may try to get over there and take a look at the finish. I just am very reluctant to order such a large item on the internet and then have to return it!! One of my thoughts, tho, about using a rectangular coffee table is that the sofa is basically a rectangle and the rug is a rectangle, so I thought something round or oval would be better. I am totally open to changing the round, pedestal side table. I'm kinda ready for a change there as well. I have been looking on CL and so far, have come up with nothing. I'm also watching for something to come into the consignment shop where I volunteer. In the meantime, I'm going to visit a few more furniture stores and keep watching CL and consignment.

In this thread on my ever evolving LR, I just added another choice I found today while I was out at another furniture store. I know many who responded to the ever evolving LR thread liked choice #1 and DH and I do, too, but I am hesitant to go ahead and order it not knowing exactly what the rustic finish looks like. When I hover over the picture to look at the detail, it looks quite rustic. I don't know if I link it here, if you will be able to also hover and look at the finish. I do like the lines of the rustic table, tho. Here is the other table I found this evening. The finish is antique bronze and it is 28" X 42". So, I guess this is choice #6. Sorry for starting another thread, but I'm never sure whether to add new info to the old thread to update, which may or may not be seen, or start a new thread.

I’m usually drawn to opposites…are the sofas square, then go with a rounder coffee table. High legs with a view underneath then go with something squatter (as in short legs but still height appropriate), a very touchable textured upholstery then go with something sleeker(smoother), etc. and if the 2 sofas are the same I don’t think I’d go for a matching coffee and end table set.
