Once you own a C-shaped end table, you'll wonder what took you so long to get one. Perfect for smaller or awkwardly shaped rooms that lack the space for a fixed table, C-shaped end tables are designed to be light and sleek enough to move from place to place.
A C-shaped end table works best when it can completely hug the side of your couch, taking up very minimal floor space, so just make sure to measure the height of your couch arms and ensure that there's enough clearance underneath them to accommodate one of these tables. Most of these tables are lightweight and easy to move around, but if your floors aren't carpeted, you may also want to consider adhering furniture pads to their table legs so that they don't scratch the floor as you move them.
Because the design is a matter of personal preference, we consulted the user reviews to help find picks that are well-made, lightweight, and easy-to-assemble pieces. Here are the 10 best C-shaped end tables that offer a handy surface exactly where you need one.
This highly-rated C-shaped end table is made of manufactured wood and metal, and it comes in four different finishes, including this all-black model. Many reviewers tout its easy assembly, having it up and ready in anywhere from 10-20 minutes.
It's narrow and very lightweight at just 9 pounds, so it's great for moving from place to place, but it's not as suitable for holding heavy objects because of the chance that it may tip over.
Gold and white marble make a gorgeous design coupling. This C-shaped end table is a little heavier than most at 25 pounds, but the authentic, glossy marble top is worth the schlepping. Its metal base also comes in black and nickel finishes.
No lifting is needed here! Roll this C-shaped end table over to your space when you need it and use its faux-wood top as a work-from-couch surface. The industrial-style design looks rugged, but it has the benefit of being very easy to clean.
While many reviewers say that the wheels work great on carpet, the wheels do add 2.9 inches of height, so make sure that it's tall enough under your couch to accommodate them.
We love this C-shaped end table's pale oak color and offbeat silhouette. Weighing 11 pounds, it's easy to scoot from one end of the couch to the other. Plus, its assembly takes just minutes, resulting in a piece that's much sturdier than it looks.
A glass-top table has a way of looking like jewelry in a space. This C-shaped end table with a brass-finished frame is easy to set up and weighs just 8 pounds for easy transport.
Why stop at one C-shaped end table when you can get three? This super affordable set comes in 26-, 22-, and 20-inch heights, so different seats in your home can all have easy access to their real wood surfaces.
We like that they have a shorter and wider horizontal orientation, so they don't jut out as far as other C-shaped tables over a couch arm.
This lightweight, 8-pound C-shaped end table has a lip bordering its black tabletop surface, so you don't have to worry about accessories rolling off of it as you move it from place to place.
It's a well-made piece that's easy to assemble, and its rounded barrel shape is unique and pleasing to the eye.
Bringing together the best of form and function, this C-shaped end table is productivity on wheels. It has space to hold objects on its top and bottom surfaces, as well as inside of its handy inner pocket.
Although you'll need to plug it in to use, this table even features a charging port for two USBs. Users love its simple assembly and that its classic faux-wood and metal combo "goes with everything."
A piece with a little more architectural intrigue, this C-shaped end table comprises faux-wood surfaces and a tempered glass frame.
You'll want to be a little more careful with this one, as it weighs over 18 pounds, but as long as you move it carefully to where you need it, it will be a handy sidekick for countless movie nights.
If you prefer a wide surface for working, as opposed to a slimmer tabletop, we like this horizontally oriented C-shaped end table. Reviewers like that this shape also makes the table feel much sturdier and less likely to tip over.
It comes together in just minutes with all of the tools that you need, and its engineered-wood surface looks beautiful while being easy to clean. The piece is even equipped with padded feet to protect your floors.
