This item is oval shape, some photos may show it looks like a circle but is oval, just the angle. It fits perfectly with my other furniture, the gloss white bookshelf and TV stand. I got compliments from guests who visited. The item is on the smaller side for a coffee table but the top layers can swivel which makes more space when needed. Although I wouldn't recommend putting heavy items on it. Maybe like drinks or bowl of chips when watching a movie is great. For those with children, like myself, I definitely wouldn't recommend your kid to sit on it. This is a great, modern coffee table at a reasonable price. Highly recommend!
