This is purely so my husband doesn't have to lean forward to reach his glass from the coffee table - down to complete convenience and laziness!  But it is very functional and quite inoffensive to look at, works in our contemporary house.  Very shiney, faux wood effect top, but we cover that with a couple of magazines or a book.  Slides under the chasie part of our sofa,  and provides that parking spot for the wine glass.  

Pros: It works.  Simple, contemporary style.
Cons: Fake wood shiney top.
