Know before you buy
The lift-top features a smooth, spring-assisted mechanism that allows you to raise the tabletop to a comfortable height for working or dining. It is designed to be stable and easy to operate with one motion.
When the top is lifted, you gain access to a spacious interior compartment. This area is ideal for stowing away remote controls, magazines, blankets, or other living room essentials to keep your surface clutter-free.
Alder is a durable hardwood known for its consistent grain and ability to take finishes well. The Glazed Antique Cherry finish is designed for residential use, though it is recommended to use coasters to protect the surface from moisture and heat.
Yes, this table requires some assembly. All necessary hardware, including the Tuscan Bronze knob, is included, and the process typically involves attaching the legs and securing the lift mechanism.
To maintain the finish, simply dust the table regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or furniture polishes that contain silicone, as these can damage the glazed appearance over time.
