Attractive and good room for storage but label ruins it
Cute table, and was exactly the size I was looking for. Two good things to know:
1) Antique Red is a BRIGHT red. Like fire-engine red. (Eventually Im going to paint it with a toned-down color).
2) Theres a sticker on the side thats nearly impossible to remove. Invest in some Goo-Gone!
The table was pretty easy to assemple (all I needed was a screwdriver). Admittedly, Im a bit obsessive and did personalize it a bit--I painted the drawer pulls black (almost impossible to find replacement 2 5/8 pulls), and added a runner of sorts to the top (lazy kitties like to lie there). Its tricky to find baskets that will fit underneath--I think two 12 x 12 cubes would work very well (the ones I currently have are 10 cube baskets). Once I paint it with a less wowee-zowee red, Ill be very satisfied.
Overall--decent price, solid materials, and easy to assemble. Just be careful if youre ordering the red!
EDIT (6/18/21) - The label is nearly impossible to remove without damaging the surface (see pic). I mistakenly tried using Goo-Gone witb an x-acto knife--now there are all sorts of nicks in the wood. Buyer beware!
