Very nice looking table. Sturdy and aesthetic however.
The table looks very nice.
The table is awfully small. Smaller than most end tables. I knew this buying it, but theres no 20x20 or 22x22 options so 18x18 was my only choice. Shame really.
I dont know what the designer was thinking, but this table has many different kinds of fasteners. The top has cam fasteners, which is okay. The bottom has bolts, which are significantly stronger. The wood dowels are really pointless; the holes are so sloppy the dowels wobble around so they dont actually DO anything. They are just loose and rattling around inside the assembly.
There are 8 of these black flange style corner brackets. The holes are pre/drilled. NONE of the drilled holes line up. Dont worry about it; just load the screw onto your driver and drive that puppy in. Theres a lot so just keep going.
On some of my legs, the pre/drilled holes for the cam fasteners and dowels were covered by the finish layer. I had to poke around to find them. All minor nuances.
The funniest part is the wood dowels. All they would have to do is change the drill bit on the manufacturing floor to an appropriate sized bit, but apparently nobody cares so the company is wasting time drilling those holes and wasting money by including the dowels.
Ultimately, it looks very nice. Its cheap, and quality control sucks but its rather sturdy and has a beautiful finish. Pro tip / get it all together a little loose and use the connection between the legs and the table top face down with legs up to get everything to square up nicely. Then tighten the other fasteners solid. You get what you pay for
