This table sort of makes the room. Tilt of the table creates an interesting visual element. It is very light, legs are kind of wobbly, but there is no reason to apply much pressure on this table. It is good table to read, draw, even put laptop on. It's so nice it is made from solid wood.

I ordered this table as a standing work station in keeping with an old house. It works great for that purpose. It is very heavy solid wood, made in Malaysia. It came in a flat pack and required assembling, which was reasonably straightforward but needs two people. The only trouble I had was securing the pencil guard along the bottom of the table: although there were guide holes drilled, the wood is so hard that the screws pulled through and spilt the wood. Not sure what to do about it - a better design would have avoided this but now it's too late. The rest of the assembly hardware was excellent quality.

It looks good when it is finally assembled but it requires patience to put this thing together. Also, once assembled, it's not very sturdy. I tightened all the bolts as much as I felt it safe to do so and the top still rocked back and forth, which is not a good thing for a drawing table when one is leaning on it. I finally had to get my drill out and drill a hole into the metal plate through the underside bracket of the table and put in a bolt on either side. That fixed the problem. It's not the best wood - too soft, but it's cheap so for now, this will have to do. I would not recommend if you're looking for a serious drafting table.

Hi, I work mainly on 1 to 1.5 inch thick canvas which vary in size (some canvases are 45 by 45 inches or even 50 by 50 inches big). would this table be able to hold these sizes? and when using it at an 90 degree angle, would the pencil holder be able to hold my canvas and not let it slip out?
Since this table is 42X42, I think you will probably have issues with your larger canvases; that being said, the pencil holder is pretty well-defined on the table, and should have no problem holding a 1.5 inch canvas. I use this table a LOT, and I have no problems using it at mostly a 90 degree angle, mostly for drawing on paper, not canvas, but I do use it for painting as well when not using my easel. I hope this helps.

Does this table tilt completely up and down so that you can put it against a wall? And if it does, I see that it would stick out a certain distance because of the feet on the legs. How far would this table stick out if you have it folded up and pushed completely against the wall? Thank you.
