the price compares to other steel options","entries":{"eq3_tubular_round_at_879_20":"For $4.20 less than the EQ3 Tubular Round’s $879.20, the Halte replaces the transparent glass top with a solid pigmented-steel surface while providing 11% more surface area (864 vs 780 sq in) at the same 14″ height, giving the buyer a larger, more durable, and visually bolder coffee table for the same investment.","30_60_day_build_to_order_window":"The 30–60 day lead time places the Halte firmly in the made-to-order tier of Canadian furniture, alongside De Gaspé (who say 'We produce almost all our furniture to order') and Handstone's 'Made-to-Order | Canadian-Made | Customizable' commitment, which justifies the $875 price as a bespoke production model rather than a mass-retail markup.","de_gasp_bonnot_utilitarian_design":"Where the Bonnot coffee table ($585) is a 'no-frills design that emphasizes the nobility of materials' with a solid wood top and steel legs, the Halte takes a streamlined, sculptural approach in monochrome steel—justifying its $290 premium as a design-first piece that acts as a focal point rather than background furniture.","size_versatility_across_the_halte_range":"The Halte is not a single-size offering: it comes in three distinct footprints (24″×24″, 36″×24″, 48″×30″), allowing the buyer to scale the same design language from a side table up to a large cocktail table—a flexibility absent in the EQ3 Tubular (only 31.5″ round or 44″×20″ oval) or the single-format Bonnot.","all_steel_construction_vs_wood_top_maintenance":"Because the Halte is solid painted steel with no wood elements, it entirely sidesteps the care caveats of wood-top rivals like the Bonnot, for which the manufacturer advises to 'avoid the use of harmful products such as ammonia' and warns that 'the wood naturally changes color' in the first months—so the Halte remains a stable, low-worry surface in high-traffic living spaces.","custom_pigmented_green_vs_neutral_metal_palettes":"The Halte’s pigmented green — available as a custom finish alongside black, white, and stainless — is a saturated colorway absent from the metal-finish menus of comparably priced steel tables: Handstone’s Cumberland offers only 'Silver, Champagne, Pewter, Gold, Black,' while EQ3’s Tubular sticks to raw stainless steel, making the Halte one of the few sub-$1,000 all-steel tables in a bold hue."},"entry_quotes":{"eq3_tubular_round_at_879_20":[{"url":"https://urbane.ca/products/tubular-round-coffee-table","quote":"Tubular Round Coffee Table31.5″w × 31.5″d ×
