7 Sustainable And Solid Wood Coffee Tables (2025)
The Good Trade editors endorse products we’ve personally researched, tested, and genuinely love. Learn more about our methodology and business model here.
We’ve gathered our friends and families around sustainable furniture for years. These are our favorite coffee tables that are sustainable, eco-friendly, and made to last.
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.
Why shop for sustainable furniture?
Shopping for sustainable furniture isn’t just about being eco-friendly — it’s a smarter, more conscious way to furnish your home. Sustainable furniture pieces are often made from eco-friendly materials like reclaimed or FSC-certified wood or recycled metals, which reduces waste and ensures the materials are gathered in a environmentally-responsible manner. They’re also built to last, meaning you won’t have to replace them as often, which saves money in the long run. Many sustainable brands also avoid toxic chemicals in their furniture (like VOCs) so your indoor air stays cleaner and healthier. Plus, by choosing ethical companies, you’re supporting fair wages and safer working conditions for artisans. And let’s be honest — there’s something extra satisfying about having stylish, well-crafted furniture that not only looks amazing but also helps protect the planet!

If you’re ready to invest in ultra-functional furniture, you’ll get more than what you pay for with these pieces from Avocado (luxury brands can cost way more than these, which helps me keep the pricing in perspective.)” – Emily McGowan, Editorial Director [Read the full review.]

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.
Customer Review | “I love this coffee table! I like that there is a little space for storage (I mostly keep coasters, remotes and a book in there), but that it isn’t bulky. I love using the removable lid as trays when I am snacking on my couch. Super easy to assemble, took me maybe 15 minutes. Already recommended this to a few friends.” – Emily Ancona (Read all reviews.)
