Vida DesignsCoffee Table with Drawer, Rectangular, Waxed Solid Pine Wood, Traditional, Rustic, 56 x 94 x 45

We had a rather spindly table nest that we inherited from family. I don't want to be rude but they were hideous 60s horrors. But, we had to trot them out for drinkies when they visited. After many years of dreading the things coming out for use, they finally gave up the ghost and expired. My wife immediately shot online to find something better to replace them. I mean, nothing could possibly be that hideous nowadays, right? How wrong we were. Hideous is apparently the new "thing".Ah well, we found these, which are a pretty close match to the media cabinet and a couple small cabinets we have, so in the basket they went.I will say that once these were assembled, we were quite pleased with them. They are sturdy enough to sit on should the urge take you. They are stable with a nice flat and broad top that is perfect for snacks, coffees or drinks, or just as an occasional table. Luckily they met with the approval of the donor of our previous set so no need to make lengthy explanations.Very easy to assemble. The black button in the image is an optional extra, it is not fitted to the legs. You have to do that. It's a metal plate with a pin sticking out of the back that you hammer into the table leg. We decided to leave that bit out and the tables don't suffer from their lack.Well made, comfortable design, good quality and solid. What more can you ask for in this day and age?Money well spent.Delivery was quick, and they arrived in perfect condition. Even the packaging hadn't been damaged, and that is almost unheard of in our neck of the woods.

This is a really lovely table it took me a while to build not through any fault - but because I have osteoarthritis but I was determined I was going to do it & following the instructions was easy - I did it & it looks lovely - very sturdy but also very nice looking

Ok these are amazing for the price, let’s get that straight.First the bad; one or two of the screws don’t bite and you have to maybe use one of your own thicker screws to pull those bits together. Also, I ordered two tables and while one was very good the other was a bit screwy on the front piece. The decorative pieces to the left and right of the drawers were far from central and skewed right to one edge.For the price though I really couldn’t be bothered returning it so I just positioned that side so it was less visible.Now the good; chunky and decent looking furniture for the price. Amazing value really and fairly sturdy using simple pocket holes for the simple screwed joints which are reinforced with unglued dowels.I had some Colron wood dye in Rosewood left over from some shelves so I stained the tops with three coats. I then finished them with a bit of Aldi furniture wax that cost about three quid that I had picked up for an indistinct future project. The tops looked amazing after that and far more expensive than their starting point.I then painted the table frames with one coat of rustoleum in anthracite that I had in the garage.They ended up looking pretty amazing given what the cost was. Couldn’t believe it all cost only around £100.I recommend them if you’re on a tight budget.

Good quality product well worth the money

OK, so they're cheap, £35. Even so, for flat pack, you expect the assembly holes to be drilled correctly. Assembling these tables was a fricking nightmare.We found that where the screws were to go in was splitting the wood, so our task no.1 was to drill our own pilot holes for the screws. Secondly we noticed some of the holes where the dowls should go were not drilled at all. So, we had to drill our own dowl holes, measuring carefully, and even then, I got it slightly out. I couldn't re-drill, the hole was too close, so that fastening wasn't used. Thirdly some of the holes that had been drilled for dowls, weren't in the right place.In the factory, don't they have machines which you can programme to put the holes in the right place on each piece, not massively out of place? And lastly there was 1 screw short when I unpacked and counted. I had to match it up with 1 I had from my tool box.So, we've put 2 out of the 3 tables together, but we've left out so many dowls and screws, I don't think they'll stay in one piece for long. We're going to Ikea to replace them.

I’m quite good at putting things together but this table was dead easy for me. Just concentrate and be careful not to get side pieces the wrong way up. It says it’s a 2 man job yet I did on my own no problem very manageable. Make sure you count all screws before you start and have the correct amount of pieces. Took me an hour to do it but it’s best to take your time and have patience, value for money wise; its exceptional that’s why I had it and it matched my other furniture. Wax it up to bring out the grain of the wood and it looks brill 👍 looks twice the price once that’s done, it’s very sturdy and is easy to construct. I highly recommend this table it’s just what I wanted. It looks fantastic buy it if your pretty confident at flat pack furniture can’t go wrong.

The tables look great, the wood is good quality. The only downside is the quality of the screws, they snap, the head becomes blunt and because of this I have half a screw stuck in one of the holes that can't be retrieved. I've had to superglue that particular area together as there's no other way to hold it together. I used different screws for the rest and had no further issues assembling the tables. They're a lovely colour and size. I'd buy again but would recommend anyone purchasing this to invest in some stronger screws
