Lovely glossy black coffee table.  The lifting action of the tabletop is smooth, and can be done one-handed from the center.  Lots of storage space!  Table itself is fairly heavy, and I used the Handy service to assemble it, as I live alone, and wasn’t comfortable doing it myself.  The directions were straightforward, and all the pieces were there, so someone with more confidence and/or a second pair of hands could put it together:)
