VASAGLELift Top Coffee Table, Lift Coffee Table with Storage Shelf, Hidden Compartments and Lifting Top, for Living Room, Office, 19.7 x 39.4 x (19.3-24.4) Inches, Oak with Blue Grains ULCT202B60

I recently moved into my new apartment. Due to storage, relocation and to simply start fresh, I essentially had NO FURNITURE! I needed to start buying stuff, and fast. The whole process of designs and styles to choose from and utilizing space, etc has always been fun and exciting to me. To go through the entire process then finally get your new stuff! The catch to this is, stuff costs money. I really didn’t want to just go impulsively buy the first cheap coffee table I saw and just beat it up for 1-2 years then start the whole process over again. I really wanted to start making purchases on larger items that I can use and be happy with for 5/10/20 years. But generally those types of items cost a lot more money.After deciding on the style, size, functionality and finally a budget, I did a lot of research. I spent about 2 weeks researching coffee tables, side tables, bed frames, mattresses, carpets, desks… everything found in a home, I was researching and planning. But this review is for the coffee table you’re checking out; so let’s skip to when I decided on this VASAGLE coffee table. I am happy to review it and share that this was a fantastic purchase. Here is how I figure this to be the case.Fast shipping. Free shipping. Isn’t that why we pay for Prime? This is exactly the type of purchase that we want Prime for in the first place.The shipping box was not too bad to get into my apartment. If you have trouble moving heavier items, get your buddy involved.Easy and leisurely assembly. I don’t rush assembly. So any reviewer that brags “I got it done in like 25 minutes”; they rushed the job. They stripped various screws, forgot fasteners, scratched the surfaces, at some point realized they installed one piece incorrectly and had to take it all apart to fix their mistake, then forgot to tighten 40% of the fasteners during reassembly, then finally lie to folks for some reason and say they did it in 25 minutes. They later down the road complain that it wobbles, squeaks while the fasteners are falling out and all they can do is blame it on the manufacturer. This seems like I know these types of guys too well. I know these things because I used to be one of those guys. I have learned that you only have to assemble a new item ONCE. So when you do; do it right.I put on a movie, followed the instructions closely, then it was completed by the time the movie was over. What type of movie? 90’s Tom Clancy. Ford not Baldwin. So use that timeframe of measurement… if you care to.Sturdiness. Yes, it is sturdy. I was somewhat skeptical about the sturdiness of the hinge lift system. I was pleasantly surprised that it functions very well, while remaining quite as well. It has plenty of support for dining while cutting up a nice ribeye steak, or doing a little bit of work on your laptop.Storage. This is one of the major factors I used in selecting this table. I utilize the entire top hidden storage compartment to keep about 4 LARGE blankets in. It’s almost winter. I like blankets. Now they’re in arms reach, but hidden until I actually need them.The 3 bottom compartments are great, which was another feature that helped me narrow it down to this item. There were a couple of similar looking, but different configurations I researched and considered. I liked the empty/pass through bottom section. It opens up the table more, as opposed to just a big flush block object in the middle of your room. To add to the storage and look of the compartments, I sized, then went shopping for 2 baskets to keep in either end of the table. I’m utilizing them for accessible, but hidden nicknacks such as a couple of lesser used remotes, chargers, cat toys and cat treats. You never know when you need to reward your cat for doing something totally cute. I have some of my fav coffee table books in the middle compartment, with the occasional curious cat peep hole.Style. I like this style and design. If you’re reading this review, you probably do too. I wouldn’t, and didn’t do any research or comparison shopping on items that I didn’t find appealing visually in the first place. That would be silly. Generally a lot of folks purchase furniture on looks alone. Often true functionality is overlooked. I was lucky enough to find a coffee table that I was literally imagining in my head before I saw it. The rest of my pros on this item is why I’m writing a review for it in the first place.Price. I find this to be an excellent price. With the quality and overall finished product; I actually consider this quite a steal. This is comparable to the 7 year Max Scherzer contract the Nationals got. If that comparison doesn’t mean anything to you; I can’t help you, or you’re a Mets fan. However all you really need to know is this a excellent value-purchase that you will greatly benefit from.The price was actually below what I was budgeting for the coffee table, so when I decided on this, I was able to make a couple of additional purchases in my “want/eventually” column.I’m not close to being done fully furnishing the new apartment with everything I’m planning on; and the decor stage is a 3 month plan/activity for me to do through the rest of the year. However I was able to cross “Coffee Table” off my list. And I am very satisfied with that.#Recommend

I was looking for a coffee table for my home office/work room when I discovered that there were some that lifted to become work stations. I have used a different assemble-yourself brand for the rest of my office furniture and I'm very happy with that brand. I always feel compelled to price-shop at least a little, and this product showed up in my search at a significantly lower price. I liked the design, as the crossed bars on the ends matched other pieces in my office. I love that there's storage inside the coffee table. The three open cubbies underneath provide even more room for whatever I want to put there. But my absolute favorite feature is the lift-up top. It's solid, sturdy, and stable when it's raised. I have no fears that it might collapse or drop while I'm using it. A portion of the room where I have my office has transformed into a second family room. There's a futon/couch facing a large television where my family often gravitates, so this purchase was mainly to provide a coffee table where we could set our drinks. It serves that purpose quite well, but I'm utilizing it much more as a work desk or for casual dining with my family while watching a movie. It's the right height for my laptop and is actually more comfortable for that use than my office desk. When my husband and I take a coffee break together, I just raise the table. If my daughter and I watch a movie in the evening, we eat our meal at the table. Because the top lifts up and forward, there's no need to be bending over to reach our plate. The same is true of working on my laptop when the top is lifted; I can sit comfortable with my back straight.I raise and lower the table top multiple times a day and the mechanism is just as smooth every time. Another thing I like is that when the top is raised or lowered it's like it's hydraulic - it does so very smoothly and slowly. If I have drinks sitting on the table, I can safely leave them there as I raise or lower the top. I should also add that this coffee table was easy to assemble, as I did so without any help. Overall, I'm extremely pleased with this product and highly recommend it.

I have other Vasagle items and they all seem to be of good quality & nice pieces of furniture. This coffee table is great so far. It took about 2 hours to put together, but I found a youtube video for this exact table that was amazingly helpful. If I didn't follow the video it would have most definitely took me longer. It was not terribly hard to put together, just time consuming. I also didn't have an electric screwdriver but if I did it would have saved some time but it wasn't too bad. The only issue I ran into was at the very end, it was pretty hard to attach the hinges to the top of the table because of the position but I ended up getting it done, it just took a long time. There was also a few holes that weren't aligned that I almost gave up on but I moved the metal part over a little so it aligned over the holes and finally got them in. There was also a piece that I couldn't figure out where it went, but it seems to be fine so far without it.I really love the lifting top of the table and all the storage underneath. I kind of wish there were a drawer too because I keep reaching for one that's not there but then I guess you wouldn't have the lift top and that's a pretty neat feature. It's nice when I use my laptop when sitting on the couch. Great purchase and I'm loving it so far!

Excelente relacion costo beneficio. Llego super rápido, en excelente condiciones la madera, fácil de armar. Es muy útil y bonita

I'll start off with.. best buy for what you get. This was the first time ordering furniture off of amazon.My wife and I have a very fair sized living room. She wanted a lift top coffee table as it would act as a laptop table / eating table if she wanted to munch and watch some Tv. This table is great. It showed up with damage to the box which frankly had me worried. Upon opening it I discovered absolute flawless packaging. Stryofoam and soft foam protecting everything, there was zero damage to any of the pieces.As for parts and assembly it was very straight forward. For any beverage lovers out there it took exactly 2 adult beverages to assemble and admire the table. Instructions were great. All tools needed for assembly were provided and included spare hardware.Once assembled and brought home ( Wife's birthday gift ) it fit perfectly with our oversized sectional ( I purchased the larger varient as i knew our sectional was roughly 5 feet to 6 feet sitting space long. )As for the depth of the storage area , under the table top provides awesome storage. Can easily fit board games , controllers , books , you name it. Easily even tissue boxes. It has a good deep storage compartment.The cubys underneath are also great for storage or decorative item display areas.When the table top if lifted it gives optimal leg room with our sectional, We have no problem sitting down with our legs under the top and not really having to hunch over to use the laptop or grab our drinks or munchies.The finish was beautiful and fit it really well with the handcrafted and finished furniture i had already made and stained for our living room.Over all I would certainly recommend this table to anyone interested just be certain of what size of table you want for your height width and legnth.Quality is cheeper but you could never tell when fully assembled and in use. Get compliments all the time and we even bought matching side tables from the same company after purchasing and using this table.Hope this helps anyone interested in purchasing this table! Thanks for reading!

Es un excelente producto en relacion calidad, precio y funcionalidad, y es justo lo que yo necesitaba porque normalmente como en la sala con mi pareja ya que no tenemos comedor. Para armarla, de preferencia para que termines mas rapido debe ser entre 2 personas, debes hacerlo con calma y poniento mucha atención para no equivocarte en las orientaciones de cada paso, el color no es super negro, es mas como un gris muy oscuro, sin embargo me gustó mas asi, ya que como tiene acabado de madera no se ve barato, esta un poquito pesada, y en el ultimo paso el instructivo tiene un error en el numero de tornillo que va, sin embargo, es facil deducir cual es el correcto porque son los unicos que quedan.

I really like Vasagle products. They provide great products at a price everyone can afford. They have the best packaging in the industry, in my opinion. Thier products are well designed, and I have never received a product with damaged, or missing parts!As for this lift top table, it is another great product from Vasagle! It is attractive, somewhat easy to build (2 people would make this easier due to size), but still doable for one person.The finish is NOT black, but rather a very dark grey, but that is okay, as it shows dust much less than true black would. Dark enough to pair well with true black furniture, and add a little contrast.The lift top functions well,, but the hinges are a little on the lighter side, but if care is taken, no damage should result. I can't say how long the lift function will last, but if it fails early, I will update this review.Overall, this is a product, (and company) I can highly recommend.I plan on buying more from these guys, as the price, and quality meet my budget.If you want a lift top coffee table, you would not go wrong with this one!!

Needed an inexpensive table for a small living room. This fit the bill nicely. I was shocked by the quality. It is heavy and sturdy. Assembly was straightforward and packaging was good. The lift top is great and provides some extra storage space too!
