Lift Top Coffee Table, Wood Coffee Table for Living Room Home Black

I got this table on sale and I didn't have high expectations given the price. As is true of a lot of things, in general, good furniture ain't cheap, and cheap furniture ain't good. But I've been pleasantly surprised. I'll say first that I actually needed a small coffee table. I've seen reviews that seem surprised at how small it is; yes, it's pretty small. That said, I'd have been ok if it was even smaller! It's not tiny, but it is maybe 10% smaller than the coffee table I have in my main living room. (I was buying this for a family/game room.) For reference, in the picture I uploaded, that's the new Atari 2600+, not the original Atari 2600, so it's smaller than you might be thinking. So be aware of that. It's great if your couch has to be fairly close to whatever it's facing, though. That was my situation, so I actually found this in a search for "small coffee table". As you might expect from the price, this table is Chinese-made, flat-pack shipped and made of particle board with a laminate on top for looks. That said, it's done well. If you've ever bought IKEA furniture, it's basically an exact copy of that. It requires some assembly, but it's fairly simple. I did it in about an hour and I had to take several breaks because I had a cold while doing it! I also did it all by hand. There are a bunch of screws and bolts you need to screw in, so a power tool of some sort would help. But it's not hard even to do manually. The instructions are absolutely not hard to follow. I've seen a couple of other reviews that say otherwise. Put your thinking cap on and use your brain. It shows you exactly what to do. I had no problems at all following the instructions. I've seen pictures someone posted in another review that clearly showed an obvious mistake in following the instructions (I can see exactly where they went wrong) that they then blamed on a manufacturing error. No, look again. Measure twice, cut once, as they say. Don't rush through the build and you'll be fine. When fully assembled, the table looks good and is very functional. I'm not using a laptop like they show in the official pictures but I appreciate that there is storage in there when you lift the top. There's also storage on the sides. The table itself feels pretty solid. I'd make sure you use coasters for your drinks because this kind of laminate always warps if it gets wet for too long, but that's hardly unique to this table. My only real critique - and I've seen others mention this too - is that the two top panels, one of which lifts and the other doesn't, don't *quite* line up right on my table. I mean the gap in between them is probably 2mm on one side and 1mm on the other. This definitely *can* be adjusted by adjusting the exact positioning of the hinges on the movable top, but it's kind of a pain to do that and not really worth it unless you have extreme OCD. I'm fine with it. It's not really noticeable unless you're looking for it (I was). And again, at this price, I was never really expecting absolute perfection. But it's just worth mentioning if you're someone who has to have everything just right. Again, cheap furniture. Spend more if you want perfection. I'm totally happy with it for what I paid.

I bought this coffee table while I was in college for my apartment, and it ended up being one of my favorite furniture purchases. The lift top feature is incredibly useful. I used it all the time for studying, eating, and working on my laptop without having to hunch over. It lifts smoothly and feels sturdy, not wobbly or cheap. The hidden compartment is great for storing things like notebooks, chargers, remotes, and other clutter, which helped keep my small space organized. The lower shelf adds even more storage, which is a huge plus for apartment living. The wood finish looks clean and modern and fit really well with my space. Assembly was straightforward, and the table feels solid for everyday use. For the price, the quality honestly exceeded my expectations. It’s practical, stylish, and perfect for anyone in college or living in a smaller apartment. I would definitely recommend it.

While this is exactly the kind of table I was looking for, I was a little worried about some of the bad reviews. But I took a chance. And I'm glad I did. It looks great, very functional, and more than does the job. I took off one star because one of the legs broke during assembly (they're plastic, not wood fyi) but I reached out to customer support and they not only replied quickly, they actually sent me a whole new table! That's great customer service. Very happy with my purchase, especially at this price point.

Setup did require some time and effort. Overall, if assembled correctly by following instructions, that are pretty straightforward if attention is paid, this coffee table will look square and nice with smooth lift top and have plenty of storage. It looks nice, also comes with the required tools to put it together (I recommend using a drill though as I used the included tools and after what seemed like screwing in a hundred screws I had some blisters). Works as it should. I’ve had it for about a month and set it up the day it arrived. Seems sturdy.

I have bought 2 of these, one at college and the other in my first apartment. I will say that this is a core memory of mine, as it is extremely cheap and a very nice table. The storage is very good and can hide stuff in it when in college. This will be my only coffee table I will ever purchase. Five stars recommend to everyone.

Table arrived, I put it together and it wasn't the easiest thing in the world, I was working on attaching the table legs when one wouldn't screw in, looked at it compared to the others and the screw part was too short, it wouldn't grip and so I can't actually use the table because they only gave me three working legs. I contacted the product support asking for a replacement leg, I provided them all the information they asked for, they then told me they didn't have any of that leg left, they were out of stock, even though this EXACT listing is still available to purchase with the exact length of legs, they refused to find a way to send me ONE leg. Instead, they told me to go get it repaired locally, a brand new table that I paid for because I was paying for a working table. They offered a $10 gift card which wouldn't even cover the cost of buying 4 replacement legs, because you can't buy ONE table leg, you have to buy four so they're all the same height. Which, they wouldn't offer me ANY kind of replacement for the defective table leg THEY SENT. Absolutely TERRIBLE product support, I cannot recommend this company or table LESS.

My husband and I recently moved and really wanted a coffee table. We were looking for one that had a tray that came up and originally were looking for people selling used ones. But then I came across this one, showed it to my husband, and we both agreed we loved the style and the price was acceptable as well. I wish I could give half stars because I would give the table and assembly 4 1/2 stars. I do feel like I have to be cautious pulling up the tray and putting it back down though I haven't felt any concerns about it tipping over. Assembly can be done by one person (that one person being a 4'11," weighs almost nothing woman) which was great because I like putting things together by myself. The half star I would take off is putting in the little screws. There's small holes where they're supposed to be placed but it's easy to accidentally screw them in a little crooked and if you try to readjust the screw without taking it all the way out, it will easy chip the top layer of the wood. It's not that big of a deal because they're tiny chips and in places no one's going to see, but I still didn't like it. It does look small in our living room with the huge couches we have but it's actually the perfect size to fit in front of the chair that doesn't recline and the console section. The tray comes up to a good height for both my husband and me. We love the storage sections. Keep in mind that the side storage section is divided, it's not a large, open storage. You'll have a small space facing toward your couch and one facing away from the couch (which I'm still not sure what to do with because it's inconvenient to place anything there). It would have been nice if it was open all the way through or had a back wall furthest away from the couch. All in all, my husband and love this coffee table and highly recommend it.

Coffee table is great after a few months of using. The storage pocket inside can hold several of my blankets and the little cubby is nice for remotes. The lift up function is useful but it doesn't extend too much closer to you, and takes applying force right at the middle for it to go down easily. I would also warn that my couch is a bit low and it comes right above my knees, so if you have a deeper or higher sitting couch you might not like it. Good value and setup wasn't too difficult for a single person, just follow the instructions and it will make sense.

Great looking table, very easy to assembly with clear instructions. Sturdy with great functionality while it is light, and the robot vacuum can easily go under it. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because there were some scuff marks on the table top.

Finishing is not good. Plywood Laminates have lot of scratches all over them. Does not come with Manual, so you need to call a carpenter to assemble. Urban company charges 750+other charges to assemble this as they consider it as Dining Patio and not as coffee table. Lift table functionality works fine. If you are buying it for this feature then go ahead, if you want aesthetics, perfect finishing, then avoid.

As the manual was missing so we are unable to assemble it
