I absolutely LOVE my lift top coffee table! My husband put it together and all of the pieces were in good shape and all accounted for. It is a very sturdy piece of furniture and fits the room very nicely-- the right size and height-- we're really pleased with the way it looks and operates. Wayfair- just what I needed! (Adding a picture a few years later— still in love with my coffee table and have just purchased this wonderful area rug from Wayfair— it plays so well with the table (lol)!!!

Love, Love, Love this table... exactly as described and i'm getting so many compliments.. i love the lift top - it's so convenient when sitting on couch and love all the extra storage underneath.. i'm so very happy with this purchase. Update: one year later, bottom shelf is starting to separate from where it's attached to the legs.

Came well packaged. Got here sooner than expected. Love my purchase. I will add, be sure to follow directions to a tee. Parts B were not marked with a B. Those being the sides of the table, I put them together wrong at first. I didn't secure them until I was sure they fit right. The springy parts get a bit confusing with the directions. Go slow. Be patient. I put it together alone until it was time for the top to go on. Better to have a second opinion on the top. Also, it's press wood, hence the price. I'm aware if it want it to last year's, I must be gentil with it. I open the top slowly. I use a almost dry to damp cloth for dusting. I'm very satisfied with my purchase. I'd recommend this table. We are enjoying eating on the sofa in front of our T.V.

We love love this piece! It’s a very nice quality made well table. We got the sawed off white color. What sold me on it was the storage and the top lifting up to become a “eating tray” We love to eat in the living room. We are also limited on space and storage. So this was a win win purchase! (Our 5 year old has taken over thinking this is “hers”. So she has made the inside her play area ) I will let her have her moment.

Beautifully made, solid piece of furniture. It was easy enough to put together all by myself. It’s gorgeous and my favorite piece of furniture. I love drinking my coffee at the table in the morning, I could NOT imagine having a table that doesn’t lift. It’s so wonderful! Really classes up the place and keeps everything neat and tidy.

Oh, m'gosh! Do I love this coffee table!! It is perfect for keeping my living room uncluttered. Puzzle books, magazines, pencils and pens, lap top and power cord, TV remotes are all securely put away at the end of the day. I chose the finish with the beachy look, and it looks really good. I love that you can lift the top without having to remove everything on it. Best of all, I put it together by myself. I was a little intimidated at first as I've never done any furniture assembly. I'm 70 years old and a widow. VOILA!! I called a neighbor at the very end of the assembly to hold the top for me while I attached it to the rest of the table. I love it!

I didnt realize it was manufactured wood until it arrived, but that detail is in the item description so I cant really knock off a star for that... It takes time to put together and you have to go slowly to make sure you have the pieces in the right direction, etc. I live alone and attaching the lid requires two people, which I didnt anticipate, but I was able to figure out how to accomplish it without help. It seems well-made and looks nice from a distance or when the lights are low. Love the storage and extendable top. Im not unhappy with it.

Highly recommend this coffee table! It has a nice glossy finish totally satisfies my farmhouse craving! I love that the top pulls out. I was iffy at first about the pull out top because it would shoot out whenever we first out it together I was afraid my kids would pull it get smacked in the face but it is harder to pull on. The tightness of the springs works itself out pretty quickly the more you use it. We love it! It totally completes our living room!

My coffee table is great for its intended purpose, very functional and kid-proof. I love the lid that lifts up to eat or work on my laptop and the storage inside is very convenient. It was pretty tough to assemble, instructions weren’t very clear. It also has knife-sharp edges and corners, I was terrified my toddler granddaughter was going to fall on it and need stitches, had to buy and install corner bumper things to keep her safe.

Delivered when scheduled. Assembly was challenging but instructions very well written, lots of steps to follow but well described. had to do it by myself but it helps to have a second person for the last step placing too with lift mechanism. It’s Solis manufactured “wood”. Mainly I’m disappointed by the finish, I expected a wood look but definitely not.

This was pretty easy to put together. I had to have my boyfriend help me when I got to the top part. The directions could have been a little more clear. There were a couple pieces I screwed in or put on the wrong way so had to redo those. It feels really solid and is so much better than the wobbly table we had before. I love the lift top and the lower shelf..helps us live a little clutter-free.Edit if you have little humans running around or older, clumsy humans that walk into things...this table is not for you. The corners on this table are so sharp that if you run into it, you will break skin and start to bleed. My boyfriend and I both did this on separate occasions. Still looks nice and serves its purpose.

I like this table even though it’s smaller than I expected. It looks good in our family room (we got white). You have to know there isn’t one piece attached to another when you open the box this table comes in. The entire thing must be assembled. I would rate this table higher but the assembly is a real pain. It took my husband the better part of a day to put it together.

It came with damage and the table top damaged. I took pictures and sent back the day it arrived. Wayfair App said the table would come September. I’ve never received the non-damaged one. Guess I’ll have to figure out how to call someone and try to get the non-damaged parts sent to me. But I’ve waited a month or more so hopefully they don’t say it’s been too long, that’s on the company. 1 star for service and damaged item, 3 stars for actual table functionality. It is cheap particle board, and unfortunately is made like most things now with the “cam lock” system. Small metal circles you twist to lock all the pieces together VS screws or nails. The “Cam Locks” easily loosen on there own (like ours has a loose leg already, and we tightened them perfectly fine when putting together. Not the first time we’ve experienced them.) well we will probably have to take a lot of the table apart to tighten them, because with this system everything fits together like a puzzle piece and some Cam Locks arehidden

4 Legs

Having grown into popularity in the early 1930s the 4 legged coffee table consists of a flat thick top that is supported by four legs. The 4 legs is a common feature in most modern day coffee table, mainly because they provide some form of stability on the coffee table to avoid it from tilting over. If you are in the market for a coffee table, a 4 legged coffee table would serve you right, especially if you have kids who are always playing around in your living room since it’s much stable and it will be hard for the kids to tilt over as compared to a single legged coffee table. Unlike what would happen if you placed some weight on the edge of a single legged coffee table the four legged coffee table will retain its stability as the weight will be distributed equally to the four legs.

Lift Top

A lift top coffee table is a unique and functional furniture piece to add to your home living space. The lift top refers to the table top portion of the coffee table; the table top lifts away from the bottom or base of the table, creating an elevated space. Typically, there is storage underneath the lift top section. A lift top coffee table makes a great addition to your family room or living room. The table is practical, functional, and beautiful. Lift top coffee tables are particularly ideal for homes with families (so you can store toys, books, or games) or people who have hobbies that require many items (such as sewing, scrapbooking, knitting, etc.).

You can enhance a lift top coffee table by adding décor pieces, such as a unique tray, coffee table books, and photo frames to spruce up the look of the table. It’s best to ensure any items you add to the table top is either secure or not breakable to avoid any damage.

Storage

In case you love extra storage in your house, what a good way to get a coffee table with storage features. You can use the under-table space to store whatever you like: put pillows, blankets, books, and other stuff there.

With this feature, you can also store your cups and other coffee accompaniments like sugar or tea bags. Storage units in a coffee table will make your coffee table a more chilling base.

Hardwoods

Hardwood coffee tables are made from wood sourced from leaf bearing trees, such as balsa, oak, maple, and cherry. Some of the most popular and widely used wood varieties for furniture making are classified as a hardwood. Hardwoods are known for their incredible strength, as they have a higher density than softwood varieties. Hardwoods are also extremely stable and durable, making any hardwood variety an ideal choice for high-use furniture pieces. Given the wide range of available hardwood types, there are plenty of options in terms of physical features (for example, lighter tones or rich hues, even versus uneven grain pattern, etc.). A hardwood coffee table would make an ideal addition to any home living space; with the wide range of options to select from (hardwood wood varieties), you are sure to find a hardwood coffee table that suits your needs, style, and budget.

Oak

Oak is a hardwood that has a beautiful grain pattern and a rustic look, it’s used in the manufacture of log furniture such as coffee tables. Oak coffee tables are known to be durable and sturdy, since the oak wood is said to have strong and heavy properties, plus it has a higher resistance to fungal attacks as compared to other hardwood wood-species. There are two types of oak wood white oak, and red oak. Coffee tables made out of the white oak are quite in-expensive than those made out of the red oak, since red oak is much rare to find as compared to white oak. Its unique grain pattern gives an oak coffee table a unique stunning look, with a clear and smooth finish. Some of the disadvantage of having an oak coffee table is the fact that it requires more care than other coffee table, since once it’s stained it starts to darken and as a result producing an unattractive two toned look.

Pine

Pine is a type of softwood that is locally available all around the world, but despite being a softwood it has a great level of stiffness and resistance to shock, which makes it the ideal softwood wood-species. Being a string shock-resistance wood species makes it good for making quality furniture such as the pine coffee table. Reasons why you should get yourself a pine coffee table is because they are very affordable as compared oak coffee tables, this is mainly contributed pine trees are grown locally all around the world, plus they take a shorter time to mature as compared to most hardwood trees. Another reason is because pine coffee table are more durable than other softwood coffee tables mainly because pine wood species is a very stiff wood. Pine coffee tables also have a very distinctive look with its dark knots and light wood color, plus due to their capability of pine trees to grow very fast they have very little negative impact to the environment.

Softwoods

Unlike hardwoods, softwoods are wood species that are much easier to work with as they are not that rigid as compared to hardwood wood species. One reason why you should get a softwood coffee table is the fact that softwoods are much more renewable wood species, since softwood forests tend to be more active as the trees do not take a long time to grow as compared to hardwood forests. Another reason why you should get a softwood coffee table is that they are considerably cheap as compared to hardwood coffee tables, this is because softwood wood species are always readily available and are much quicker to source. Some of the cons of a softwood coffee tables is that they are less durable mainly because the softwood wood species is of low density making it weaker as compared to hardwood coffee tables.
