SICOTASBoho Rattan Nightstand Bedside Table - Farmhouse Narrow End Table for Living Room - Accent Side Tables with 2 Rattan Open Storage Shelf for Bedroom, Small Spaces, Wood

This is a perfect small end table. Our house is small, and I was looking for something for our living room that would fit a lamp and a few sundries without taking up too much room. This fits the bill, besides being attractively cute and sturdy. The only problem is in the assembly. You need to know about lock nuts, which is what is used to attach the bolts for the legs. This is something neither my husband nor I had any experience with before encountering them with this item. My husband learned about lock nuts by talking to a knowledgeable person at our hardware store. You put it on the bolt with the round part of the nut facing up and then tighten it down with a wrench, forcing it through the resistance until the nylon threads grip the bolt and make it tight. At first, my husband thought the nuts didn't fit the bolts because of the resistance, but we found out they were fine. After that the construction went quickly and smoothly. The instructions would have been better if they had explained this little bit of carpentry knowledge that we didn't have, being non-carpenters with no experience building furniture. Otherwise, it's a great product and we are very happy with it.

So the product looked nice once assembled and the materials seemed to be of ok quality. But two things would cause me to think twice about ordering from this company again. First, although the instructions are better than other products you put together yourself, they are still not that good. I wonder if the owner of the company has ever asked an average" person to put it together and just watched the process. Areas where more detailed diagrams would have helped. This is NOT as easy as they make it sound. Doable but just be aware it's a bit of a project. Secondly, some of the parts do not seem to be machined as well as they could be. There are four little nuts that should easily hand tighten until you need to use the provided tool to tighten at the end. However, you need the tool for most of this step, which is tedious and seems to me to indicate whoever machined these parts did not pay attention to detail or the engineering needed improvement. That added unnecessary time and frustration to what should be an easy assembly. The bottom line is that it is a good product and we are happy with it but it was an unnecessarily difficult assembly experience. But once together, I would recommend it.

Love love love these end tables!!!

Very good quality and easy to put together took 15 mins

Arrived with a few imperfections upon inspection but I'm going to accept it as is. It took about 30 minutes to assemble and I think it's a beautiful sturdy end table. The surfaces are solid with the rattan cover so you don't have to worry about instability. I would recommend!
