Sammy is right... combine our two posts.

Imagine your table with kids climbing on it and jumping off of it. Now imagine apple juice, ketchup, eggs, and baby food splattered all over it every single day.

The table that you can imagine best in this scenario- that is the table you need to get.

I'm a guy, and i agree that the glass table's not going to be family friendly. However....

Not to rain on your parade- but I looked up your round table. I instantly saw the words "Finnish designer" and $1087.00. Then I read your post and I saw "six month old." Um.... no.

Now imagine apple juice, ketchup, eggs, and baby food splattered all over it every single day. Ask: "What table will best serve my family in this stage of life?" Getting a fancy table for its own sake should be of least concern.

I know you don't want to hear it, but the bottom line is, keep the needs of your family at the center of your decision. Don't adjust the family to suit the needs of a table. This goes with anything in life you buy- house, car, etc.

Save yourselves from the misery. Get a $150.00 wooden table. When the kids are older, then get your dream table.
