Residing in a small NYC apartment has forced me to be creative about my living space. I’m constantly clearing out clutter and only shop for pieces that are actually realistic for my limited real estate. And, despite all my efforts, I still never have enough room for my spare bits and bobs. 

As a shopping writer, I have a lot of stuff, so pretty furniture that doubles as clever storage is the name of my game. While looking for living room upgrades at Wayfair, I found this genius lift-top coffee table with spacious hidden compartments and multiple functions. According to shoppers, it’s “very functional for small spaces” and “looks nicer in person,”—and lucky for me, it’s now 60 percent off.

This compact little table offers more than meets the eye. It’s made of sturdy wood and hides a lofty bottom pull-out drawer, perfect for stowing away throw blankets or board games, and an organized upper compartment where I plan to slot my out-of-season candles, coasters, and coffee table books. The lifting top can be configured in three ways: As two separate small surfaces, a desk-like platform for your laptop, or a dining table for up to five people, per one shopper. And that’s all in addition to its primary purpose as a chic, farmhouse-style coffee table. 

The do-it-all piece is also easy to wipe clean, stain- and scratch-resistant, and can withstand storage weight up to 100 pounds. Plus, you can adjust the lifting top to a height that suits your sofa or seating. Keep in mind that, due to its complex design, reviewers recommend having an extra set of hands for assembly, but it’s all worth it for the “beautiful” and “very versatile” piece of furniture.

One shopper said it maximized their living room space, adding that the lifting tabletop allows them to eat in front of the TV without having to strain their back leaning over a dinner plate. A shopper who doesn’t have a dedicated office in their home said it’s made for the “perfect” work-from-home desk, while others love it for family game nights, as a “kids’ table for a dinner party,” or even a storage-packed end table. 

Two color options have already sold out, so don’t miss your chance to grab the lift-top coffee table while it’s marked down by nearly $200. Plus, shop more space-saving Wayfair deals below, including modern farmhouse, mid-century, and round lift-top coffee tables for up to 72 percent off.
