It frustrates me to no end how we don't have any glass tables. Plus dining tables and coffee tables! I really wish we had more variety, I pretty much used the same low wooden table in almost each of my rooms due to the lack of options.
A lot of the benches and other seats/stools (without backs, usually) can have items placed on them.
It's still not enough, and not enough variety (and so many 2x2 tables, why?!) but the seats help a little. Just in case anybody reading hasn't tried it yet.
