Triangle Coffee Table in Walnut Mid Century Modern Solid Wood Base and Triangle Clear Glass Coffee Table for Living Room Low Minimalist Tea Table Coffee Tables (32.3 * 22.4 * 16, Walnut Teal)

Beautiful in its simplicity
My husband insisted we get a coffee table for the living room in our new one bedroom condo. Nice space, but on the small side. I didn’t want to have too much furniture. This table is perfect. Its triangular glass top is unique and playful, the base is too. And yet it’s strong and sturdy. Perfect purchase.

Pretty Good Value Knock-Off
This table is a knock-off of the well-known Isamu Noguchi design of 1944. A real Noguchi table (still made by the original manufacturer, Herman Miller) costs about $2600. I find this poor man’s version to be a pretty good value, but not without its flaws.The good:The item was delivered quickly and was well-packaged. It was easy to assemble in about 5 minutes. The base is made of solid wood, with a heavy steel pin anchoring the two halves. The tempered glass top is both heavy and thick. Overall, the table appears very similar to the original Noguchi design.Some have complained that the glass top is easily tipped over. I did not find this to be true. If the legs are properly spaced (which may take some experimentation until you find the sweet spot) the glass is quite stable. The included clear sticky pads ensure that the glass will not slide around on the base. This is not to say the table is impossible to tip over, but it will support a reasonable amount of weight even on the ends without tipping. If, say, your cat jumps on to the table, it’s no problem. But I would not recommend this table for a household with a rambunctious toddler who might attempt to climb on to it.The bad:One of the legs had about a 2′ long dent on one edge (not especially visible when the table is setup). Because the finish was applied over this damage, it appears the piece left the factory already damaged, indicating poor quality control.The “Meh”:I was not expecting solid walnut at this price, but I was hoping for real walnut veneer. Unfortunately, the wood appears to be rubberwood (or a similar cheap tropical hardwood) with a walnut stain. The stain is rather poorly applied and has a flat finish. While the finish is acceptable at this price point, I must say the pictures showing a nicely stained satin finish are misleading.Also, the pieces lack the nicely rounded edges and the fine finish shaping shown in the photos.Finally, be aware that the base pieces are not cut from a single slab of wood. They are assembled from smaller pieces glued together. In some spots where these pieces are joined, the joint is visible on close inspection as a jagged line running across the grain. These joints are more visible on the lighter, unstained version of the table. I suggest reviewing the customer photos for a more accurate view of what you will receive.Conclusion:While far from perfect, this table represents a reasonably good value alternative for those like me, who desire the look of the famous Noguchi table, but can’t afford the real thing.

Unstable, Precarious Design
Table was a tip-over liability at every rotation, despite following instructions to the letter. Finally fell over and snapped one of the legs and I am now outside of the return window. Looked cool, though.

Unstable
Aside from the positive reviews by people paid to put items together, this table is unstable. No matter how you position the legs the top is too heavy and all it takes is one good tip and it easily falls over. It looks cool but its a engineering bust not to mention the pivot stock metal pin cracked the cheap wood the very first time I put it together. I would not recommend this failure.

Initially we thought the product was really nice. The glass top was heavy and sturdy and the wooden legs were a beautiful stain, exactly as pictured. As soon as we started gently putting the 2 leg pieces together (they connect by a peg piece on one of the legs), one of the legs cracked completely in half. We were barely using any force to gently tap the peices together so this is quite disappointing, especially after waiting 2 months for the item to arrive. Will be trying to get a refund for the poor quality.

Wrong size and suction cups broken / not safe very tippy.
