Arguably the biggest determining factor in a table’s price is the quality of the materials. For the sake of today’s article, we’ll assume you’re not interested in cheaper, flimsy plastics or laminents. So, instead, we’ll break down some of the more common mid-to-upper-scale materials. 

• Glass - Glass tables have many benefits, from their easy maintenance to their inherent airiness. And you can add lower prices to that list! Some cons include its vulnerability to major bumps and can cut or scratch. 

• Marble - Be prepared to roll out the big bucks for a marble table! This eye-catching material will make you feel (and spend) like royalty. It’s available in numerous colors and patterns that lend themselves to many different decor themes. However, marble tables are potentially the hardest to maintain long-term due to easy scratching and staining.
