As hard as I try to keep our coffee table nicely arranged, I can’t seem to keep clutter from creeping across the surface: remote controls, laptop chargers, too-old magazines, house keys, and even the contents of emptied pockets somehow show up there instead.
What I need is a coffee table with storage for stashing and stowing all these things away.
