Know before you buy
With a 29-inch width, this base is ideal for round or square tabletops ranging from 36 to 48 inches in diameter or width. It provides a stable, centered footprint that prevents tipping while offering plenty of legroom.
The wooden components arrive sanded to 150 grit, which is a great starting point. Depending on your desired finish—especially if you are using a stain—you may want to lightly hand-sand with a higher grit, such as 180 or 220, to ensure a perfectly smooth surface.
The matte black metal accents are a core design feature of the Slater base, not just functional hardware. They are intentionally exposed to create a modern, industrial contrast against the wood.
No, the base arrives in components to ensure safe shipping. However, it includes all necessary hardware and features countersunk holes to make the assembly process straightforward for a DIYer.
Yes, the Slater Merged Pedestal is engineered for high-quality, sturdy support. As long as your tabletop is properly secured to the mounting plate, the construction is robust enough to handle substantial materials.
