Really Poor Quality

(June 13, 2013)
"I had low expectations based on the reviews but was looking for a simple, small table that would be tucked away, so I didn't mind the potential imperfections. The low reviews are all accurate.
Super low quality. Crooked when assembled. Dents on surface where the legs attach. Paint comes off extremely easily.
Its saving grace is the color (I picked mint). Luckily I have it in a corner where it's not too visible, with a big potted plant on top to hide the dents.
Totally not worth the price.

cheap, beat up, spray painted side table

(June 12, 2013)
"This is not at all a quality table. It's got a nice shape and comes in lovely colors. But it's essentially a cheap, beat up, dirty table that someone spray painted. I doubt the coat of paint will even last. It's not worth the money. Maybe if you found it free on the street it would be worth it."

adorable

(May 22, 2013)
"not sure why these reviews are middle of the road. i'm obsessed with this table. it's cute, functional, the perfect amount of distressed and yet still modern enough to fit in with my contemporary apartment. i'm using it as an entry way table. i put a little vase on it and it's a cute little place to drop off keys and mail. highly recommend!"

Missing parts

"This table came without screws and necessary stuff to assemble it. It will suck if i need to ship it back; such a hassle."

Nice little table for the price

(April 23, 2013)
"Maybe I had low expectations after reading the other reviews, but I'm perfectly happy with this table. Just got it and assembled it last night.
Yes, there are purposeful "imperfections" and a faux rust, at least on the gray version. But I didn't find the construction to be any cheaper or lower quality than IKEA. Is it the sturdiest table in the world? No. I'm not gonna try sitting on it. But it's a perfectly fine little side table -- especially for the price -- and it looks great in my living room."

Poor Construction, Overpriced

(March 20, 2013)
"Like many other reviewers, my table arrived damaged (dented, with the paint scraped to the metal all over the piece.) I decided to take my chances for a cheap end-table for my guest space. Needless to say, there is a reason this is only sold online. I imagine an average UO customer would spend upwards of 9.99 for this table.
There are dents all over the top of the table where the manufacturer screwed in the supports for the legs- this isn't a one-off mistake; it will be on every table. You need a simple hex wrench to attach the legs, which is supplied in the box, but if this touches the paint, it will scrape it off! Also, the shelf on my particular table didn't fit properly when I assembled.
Too much of a hassle to disassemble and return- I'll probably just move this to my balcony and put a plant on it.. it's already looked like it's handled some inclement weather!
Save your cash & buy a cheaper table and spray paint it a cute color.

Love them!

(February 13, 2013)
"I got the mint ones to use in my work space. They were simple to assemble, they look great, and they are functional. They are a good size and you can't beat the price with free shipping. Definitely recommend!"

heed the previous reviews

(February 12, 2013)
"this is really terrible quality. i had low expectations going in based on the previous reviews & the price but was not prepared for what i actually received. the sheet metal top is not even attached the the frame the entire way around (gaps in the welding), one leg is a full 1/2 in shorter than the other 3 legs, and the top has dirt smears on in and dents but not in a way that looks remotely organic to the "style"."

sadly this is being returned

(February 10, 2013)
"I was so excited to get this. The bottom shelf was nice and shiny pretty color. However, the top was scratched in several places and dented from where the exisitng screws were attached underneath (apparently to tight). Totallt unacceptable and disappointing to say the least. Returning it to the store. Cannot recommend based on the quality of the one I received (it was gray, not that the color was not pretty. Take your chances."

Good color but cheap metal

(August 9, 2012)
"The table was a good size and the color was just right. However, the metal was of cheap quality and there were several imperfections on the table top. They look like repurposed garage sale finds. Works for what I wanted but cost about twice as much as they should have."

Great purchase

(August 7, 2012)
"I wanted a larger industrial-looking bookcase for our office/guest room but my husband vetoed that idea. I was super excited when I saw this little table/stand because I needed a place for my printer to live. I was a little leary because the price was so good and I thought maybe it would be cheap looking or not so sturdy but I couldn't have been more wrong! It's perfectly sturdy and strong and it doesn't move at all when the printer is in use. The bottom shelf is perfect for my "to file" bin. I have a galvanized metal trunk that I use as a side table next to the sofa bed on the opposite wall and this table goes perfectly with it. I absolutely love the juxtaposition of old metal pieces next to rustic-looking wood pieces; it makes me happy! LOVE this table!"

Great size, but not exactly as expected

(August 3, 2012)
"The industrial flavor of the black table was expected, but I didn't realize that it meant it would come dirty. My hands were filthy by the time I finished putting it together. That was a feat itself, as the instructions are wrong. Step one says to put on the legs and tighten the nuts. Step two has you screw on a stabilizer piece to the legs and top, which requires you to unscrew the legs, put everything in place, and then tighten all nuts. After dealing with a pain-in-the-neck nut that didn't want to go on, and realizing afterward that you have to unscrew it and start over...I wasn't that happy. Overall, the table is fine and serves its purpose, but I'm not in love with it."

Better than expected!

(July 19, 2012)
"I needed something simple and industrial to use as a nightstand. The table was easy to put together and is pretty sturdy. It's a great accent, doesn't pull focus or overpower the rest of the room."
