West Elm is a relatively affordable store, sort of the midpoint between ultra-affordable stores like Ikea and pricier ones like Williams-Sonoma Home and Pottery Barn. It's also full of great modern design, which unless you're shopping at Ikea, is hard to come by at an affordable price. But West Elm items like this Angled-Leg Coffee Table ($299) are still out of reach for many, or simply not sensible if you're a student or in transition. So, I was happy to come across a near-identical, more affordable alternative. To see it, read more.
The Overstock Wenge Round Coffee Table ($169) has nearly the same shape as the West Elm version, with a criss-cross base and round tabletop. It's not as top-heavy and its legs are not actually angled, but I don't think that detracts from the design. Unfortunately, the table is made from MDF, whereas the former is solid wood, which explains why you save about $130.

I'm a student and if I were in the market for it, I'd just shell out the $300--the quality is SO much better, even just from the photo, and I like the more delicate design anyways.
1Yeah I'm with itsme, the West Elm one is worth saving for. I hate MDF. But then again, my apartment is filled with Ikea junk so I'm soooooooo over it.
2I like both.

4OH and I think this is a better version of that coffee table from overstock: http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Howard-Black-stained-Oak-Round-Coff... (haha I love overstock, obviously!)
