Brilliant for anyone who saves magazines...

I rip out pages, or just entire sections of magazines...why should I carry around a pound of ads when I can just take the articles I want, toss them in my bag and then toss those pages in the trash when I'm done? Exactly! (I also rip out all the cardboardy pages before I start reading...ya know all those pages that make the magazine even heavier and have the perfume or the samples attached? I HATE those pages!)

So, this table really solves the problem, like when our parents and grandparents saved old Life magazines, or when I saved National Geographic....you never know when you'd get an assignment on some topic....plus, there was no Internet when I was doing reports....My freshman year of college was the first year Brandeis had email and it was some ridiculous long thing w/ #s and letters, not just your name...

Here is the review of the table from Best Bets of NYMag:

If you're like a lot of New Yorkers we know, you hang on to your magazines for months and months, yet storing them all remains a dilemma. Those stacks piled up in the bathroom? Not pretty. Satina Turner has designed a clever solution: a table that doubles as a very stylish magazine rack. Just drop the magazines in the slots and voilà! The spines face out, so you'll always know which pub you're reaching for. Plus, the flat surface makes for a perfectly functional coffee table.
