OLIXIS Wood Lift Top Coffee Table with Hidden Compartment and Large Storage Shelf, Lift Tabletop Dining Center Table for Home Living Room Office, Black

I got this table on sale and I didn't have high expectations given the price. As is true of a lot of things, in general, good furniture ain't cheap, and cheap furniture ain't good. But I've been pleasantly surprised.I'll say first that I actually needed a small coffee table. I've seen reviews that seem surprised at how small it is; yes, it's pretty small. That said, I'd have been ok if it was even smaller! It's not tiny, but it is maybe 10% smaller than the coffee table I have in my main living room. (I was buying this for a family/game room.) For reference, in the picture I uploaded, that's the new Atari 2600+, not the original Atari 2600, so it's smaller than you might be thinking. So be aware of that. It's great if your couch has to be fairly close to whatever it's facing, though. That was my situation, so I actually found this in a search for "small coffee table".As you might expect from the price, this table is Chinese-made, flat-pack shipped and made of particle board with a laminate on top for looks. That said, it's done well. If you've ever bought IKEA furniture, it's basically an exact copy of that. It requires some assembly, but it's fairly simple. I did it in about an hour and I had to take several breaks because I had a cold while doing it! I also did it all by hand. There are a bunch of screws and bolts you need to screw in, so a power tool of some sort would help. But it's not hard even to do manually.The instructions are absolutely not hard to follow. I've seen a couple of other reviews that say otherwise. Put your thinking cap on and use your brain. It shows you exactly what to do. I had no problems at all following the instructions. I've seen pictures someone posted in another review that clearly showed an obvious mistake in following the instructions (I can see exactly where they went wrong) that they then blamed on a manufacturing error. No, look again. Measure twice, cut once, as they say. Don't rush through the build and you'll be fine.When fully assembled, the table looks good and is very functional. I'm not using a laptop like they show in the official pictures but I appreciate that there is storage in there when you lift the top. There's also storage on the sides. The table itself feels pretty solid. I'd make sure you use coasters for your drinks because this kind of laminate always warps if it gets wet for too long, but that's hardly unique to this table.My only real critique - and I've seen others mention this too - is that the two top panels, one of which lifts and the other doesn't, don't *quite* line up right on my table. I mean the gap in between them is probably 2mm on one side and 1mm on the other. This definitely *can* be adjusted by adjusting the exact positioning of the hinges on the movable top, but it's kind of a pain to do that and not really worth it unless you have extreme OCD. I'm fine with it. It's not really noticeable unless you're looking for it (I was). And again, at this price, I was never really expecting absolute perfection. But it's just worth mentioning if you're someone who has to have everything just right. Again, cheap furniture. Spend more if you want perfection.I'm totally happy with it for what I paid.

I bought this coffee table while I was in college for my apartment, and it ended up being one of my favorite furniture purchases. The lift top feature is incredibly useful. I used it all the time for studying, eating, and working on my laptop without having to hunch over. It lifts smoothly and feels sturdy, not wobbly or cheap.The hidden compartment is great for storing things like notebooks, chargers, remotes, and other clutter, which helped keep my small space organized. The lower shelf adds even more storage, which is a huge plus for apartment living. The wood finish looks clean and modern and fit really well with my space.Assembly was straightforward, and the table feels solid for everyday use. For the price, the quality honestly exceeded my expectations. It’s practical, stylish, and perfect for anyone in college or living in a smaller apartment. I would definitely recommend it.

While this is exactly the kind of table I was looking for, I was a little worried about some of the bad reviews. But I took a chance. And I'm glad I did. It looks great, very functional, and more than does the job. I took off one star because one of the legs broke during assembly (they're plastic, not wood fyi) but I reached out to customer support and they not only replied quickly, they actually sent me a whole new table! That's great customer service. Very happy with my purchase, especially at this price point.

Setup did require some time and effort. Overall, if assembled correctly by following instructions, that are pretty straightforward if attention is paid, this coffee table will look square and nice with smooth lift top and have plenty of storage. It looks nice, also comes with the required tools to put it together (I recommend using a drill though as I used the included tools and after what seemed like screwing in a hundred screws I had some blisters). Works as it should. I’ve had it for about a month and set it up the day it arrived. Seems sturdy.

Very sturdy and has held up well. Instructions on set up are simple and easy to follow. It does move easily on non carpeted surfaces. The size is responsible as well for the price. It looks nice for a reasonable price.

It's really sturdy. Nice material. Looks way more expensive than it should. Great value. I would recommend it

This ended up being a really solid purchase.Putting it together was much easier than I expected and didn't take long at all. The instructions were clear and actually made sense (which isn’t always the case), so assembly went smoothly without any frustration.Once assembled, it feels sturdy and well-built. It has a good amount of weight to it and doesn’t wobble or feel flimsy, which gives me confidence it’ll hold up over time.I also really like how it looks. It has a clean, polished design that makes it feel a bit more premium than I was expecting.All in all, it hits that sweet spot of being easy to assemble, durable, and good-looking. I’d definitely recommend it.

I built it alone just fine, but would have been easier with help. I love the lift top design, but it is a little unstable. It doesn't fall down or anything, just isn't very smooth to open/close. Also, I wished the cubby on the end went all the way through, but I like that there is a space. Overall good table. Nice amount of space inside.

Great looking table, very easy to assembly with clear instructions. Sturdy with great functionality while it is light, and the robot vacuum can easily go under it. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because there were some scuff marks on the table top.
