Which is better for a small living room?

The Intrigue. Its 26'' depth takes up less floor space front to back than the Branham's 39.4'' width, and the shelf holds remotes and magazines.

Is the Branham worth saving the money?

Yes if you only need a flat surface. It is solid wood and costs $145.99 at Wayfair versus $289.00 for the Intrigue, but it has no storage and needs assembly.

The Intrigue is the heavier build at 99 lb with a fixed shelf, so it should hold up better to daily use. The Branham's 75 lb capacity is the limit to watch.

Can I move the Intrigue easily?

Yes. It ships with removable casters, so you can roll it out of the way and take the casters off if you want it fixed.

Which is easier to put together?

The Intrigue. The Branham lists assembly as required; the Intrigue does not, and its casters simply attach.
