“This table is the perfect height for a sewing table and has been working out so well for me. It’s easy to move and sturdy enough for my sewing machine.” – Felicia, product reviewer
“I have the Linnmon desk top for probably 5 years now. It is cheap and good. Used it as a desk before and now it is my craft table.” – Witoldyna, Hip2Save reader
2. MELLTORP Table Top
An IKEA table top is perfect for when you need to fit a dining room table or desk in a tight space. This moisture and stain-resistant table top from MELLTORP might be just what your cozy area needs. This simple, yet sturdy, melamine table top is easy to clean and comes highly-rated!
“My husband and I recently moved to a smaller place and needed a smaller table for the smaller space. We liked the white MELLTORP tabletop with the MELLTORP legs as the table is visually light and was fairly inexpensive. I was nervous about staining with getting a white tabletop; however, the tabletop surface is easy to clean and has yet to show any stains after three months of daily use. We typically use placemats under our dishes when eating’ but, the times we have had spills/food droplets fall on the white surface they have clean up easily.” – Marsie, product reviewer
“Love the quality of the table for the money. This is a super sturdy table and we are very happy with the purchase.”– Maryelis, product reviewer

Table tops are great for more than just tables. We purchased a glass table top, years ago, from IKEA to protect the top of our washer and dryer. Makes a great spot for folding clothes and protects the top from scratches.
Great idea, Jenny! Thanks for sharing how you use the glass top! 🤗💓
