do you like this? coffee table, etc.

So i need a black coffee table and end table and i have yet to find anything normal. Plus many stores don't have BLACK for some odd reason.

So i'm thinking about ordering this from broyhill. The coffee table is $199, the drawer end table is $179 and the sofa table is $279. What do you girls think?

(i'd take out the baskets)

I like it, but I'm not crazy about the color of the baskets.

yes you can remove them. See i want something that has some sort of storage space (for all my husbands remotes, magazines and crap).

Re: do you like this? coffee table, etc.

I like the baskets, but maybe if they were in a different color like black...

I think it's a good deal, you can always use the baskets somewhere else in the house so they're not a total loss...

Have you checked out Pottery Barn or if you're not looking to spend a ton, Target? They have a pretty big selection of black furniture.

Here's a set from PB

I found this too. It's from Home Decorators Collection. The set is shown in dark cherry, but comes in black.

Here's a link to the set...

Re: do you like this? coffee table, etc.

I have a similar set from PB in antique white. I love it.

I might go with more 'modern' looking wicker baskets to go with the black. I think west elm has some.

Re: do you like this? coffee table, etc.

I actually like the baskets - with broyhill usually you can pick colors, can you choose a different color for the baskets if you don't like the contrast of the two colors shown?
