WLIVE Lift Top Coffee Table with Storage, 40.9" Coffee Table with Lifting Top & Sliding Cover, Wood Modern Center Table with 2 Hidden Compartment for Living Room, Retro Brown

I love this table. We live in an apartment and there’s no room for a kitchen table, so we’ve been able to use this to sit and eat. My son will sometimes use it to sit in the living room to do his homework. The table is very sturdy. I love the draws and additional storage

A lot of pieces all marked well that made following the instructions easy, I found that doing the job as a one person is easy enough with one attachment not as easy as I would like, when assembling you build two sections that towards the final part of the assembly you put the two pieces together. that was not easy and would work better with two people. the two sections that go together have some dowels and screws that go into holes when lined up. getting everything in alignment was a bit frustration although still able to do by myself. the top and top brackets were not clear in the instruction manual and ended up putting on backwards. easy enough to fix. The top is a bit flimsy and requires two hands to life and lower and it the only weak part of the build. for the price it seems like a fair deal, I didn't expect much to begin with

My wife and I are empty nesters and have gotten into the habit of having dinner in front of the TV. We've had a lift-top table that has served the dual purpose of coffee table and dinner table.Unfortunately, my wife took a bit of a tumble recently, and used the coffee table break her fall. She's fine, but the coffee table didn't fare so well.This table is about the same size as the old one and it has the all-important lift top function. So I ordered it.The table arrived in a very flat carton. It brings new meaning to the phrase, "Some Assembly Required." What was in the box was a lot of flat particle board pieces and hardware in separate bags and pouches.I was not considering an assembly project, but once the package arrived, I was pretty much committed.First, the good parts:* The parts are almost all clearly labeled. Those that are not labeled (two pieces) are easily identified.* The table came very well packed in a single carton. Larger pieces were separated by styrofoam to avoid scratching.* The manufacturer includes three tools (Allen wrench, Phillips head screwdriver and open-end wrench). They're not exactly Snap-On quality, but they get the job done.* The pre-drilled holes are very precise* The instructions consist of a booklet with clear illustrations for each step* There are plenty of extra small parts. I didn't need them, but it was reassuring to have them if a stray piece hid under the couch.I read the part of the product page that said, "35-minute assembly time" to my wife. We both had a good laugh. I can't imagine anyone being able to put this thing together in less than a couple of hours. I divided the assembly of my unit into two days.The instructions are generally clear and unambiguous. I had a little trouble getting the top properly installed, but that was probably me, not the instructions. Benefit of the doubt here.What was not so good:* Compared to our old table, this one is somewhat flimsy. I think it'll do the job, but it's definitely not as rugged as its predecessor.* The bottom of the drawer is some sort of pressboard. It's unlikely to hold anything heavy without buckling.* If you're looking for "furniture," you'll probably be disappointed. But for $75.00, I think it's a fair deal.If you don't have a lot of experience assembling Ikea-type furniture, you'll find putting this table together fairly simple. Just take your time and double-check each step to make sure you haven't installed something backwards.

Exactly what I wanted. Good quality, works well, looks good.

Don’t fall for the fake hype — this thing is junk. The “lift top” barely crawls up 6 inches and only if you help it with both hands. Corners are sharp enough to cut you, the drawer was missing a pilot hole, and the parts came with half the stickers gone. It’s shorter, cheaper, and flimsier than it looks. Save your money — or better yet, spend it on firewood. At least that has a use.

Absolutely love the functionality of this coffee table. Fits perfectly in my small space. My husband did not have any problems assembling however, the top does not simply glide down. I have to hold both sides in order to slide into place. Love the ample amount of storage space. In addition to the lift top you can easily hide clutter in the drawer. I like the way the table is sectioned. I even purchased a basket to place in the side portion to hide even more clutter!!!

This is not a bad coffee table. Works pretty well, is a great height for my couch, and doesn’t look bad. It is a little flimsy though and assembly suuucks but straightforward. The top does not hold much weight and it doesn’t have a lot of back pressure on the pistons which I paint a lot on this table and will cause it to drop if I press it a little too hard. It’s also annoyingly a two handed open and close because they didn’t do anything to make the pistons work together so if you try to do it with one hand it’ll become lopsided immediately and will likely cause anything you have on top to fall off. Decent amount of storage though.

I love this table! It’s sturdy! The swing top works smoothly and holds up to everything being on top of the table! Great to play board games and card games!
