The main thing that I dont like about it is it is not long enough. The two shelves could stand to be longer. At least one of them. When the shelf is raised there is not much room for things on top of it. My other coffee table was about 10 inches longer than this one and it seems impossible to find one that long anymore. I liked my old one because it didnt matter where you were sitting on the couch it was easy to reach things and there was plenty of room. My old one didnt really need to be centered because it covered most of the sitting area of the couch.
It took me 2hrs to put it together but I used wood glue on every screw to ensure it will not come apart. Now that everything has dried it is very solid and will handle being moved with no problems. Everything is included into the kit except for a adjustable wrench which I already had. Follow the instructions and diagrams to the tee and you wont have any problems. I put it together by myself. Anyone can put this together by themselves with some ingenuity. If your not very handy you will definitely need help.
Easy set up, looks feels great. Only con that isnt going to make you hate it, lifting the table top can be little hard for some people. Served its purpose greatly
My husband and I fell in love with a similar table to this at an upmarket home store but the almost 1,000 price tag put us off. This MUCH cheaper option is an excellent alternative for the budget/conscious home decorator. My husband put it together by himself / it wasnt easy though he walked away with scrapes bruises because there are some really challenging pieces. I think with a second person, it may have been easier.
Its not the sturdiest piece of furniture ever / and the corners are VERY sharp so I would definitely not recommend this for families with children. But for us, its great has complemented the furniture in our home. My husband loves using it to work on his laptop while sitting on our sofa!
Needed something for storage for the myriad remote controls and gadgets in the living room. Bought this and expected something cheap. Shockerthis thing is sturdy as one youd buy in a furniture store pre/assembled at three or four times the price.
The assembly is not a snap and does require some patience. I had put together the final pieces and set it on the floor and noticed something similar to what Ive read in random comments throughout the reviews, that the sliding piece did not sit flush with the . After a profanity laced tirade, I decided with nothing to lose, I muscled the sliding piece so that the brackets holding the track wheel assembly would bend a little. Wouldnt you know that did the trick. Absolutely flush
The holds my laptop and doesnt move at all in its fully upright position. Closes slowly, no noise at all. If you have carpeted floors, you may want to avoid using the adhesive strips for the legs. Table wont move unless you pick it up with those strips attached.
Have had this table for 8 months and zero regrets. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who works from home or has limited storage space in their living room.
I found it easy to assemble but it would help if there were written instructions to support the pictures provided as instructions. Good fit for all parts and once assembled the table is very solid and functions well.
I ordered this table and I am pretty happy with it. I was careful when assembling and got all of the parts to line up so that there are no unusual gaps or anything that looks concerning. It took me several hours to assemble, but it was not difficult. I only had a problem with a final part that was not quite the right size, but the seller was great to work with.

Good looking lift/top table for a fraction of the price

So far so good
Overall good quality, will see how it looks after a few years of normal use.
Only opens one way
I wanted an option for the table to open left or right while keeping the slide part in same place
Very happy
Decent materials and features for the price.
Well worth the profanity assembling it
