I wanted a “Porter” coffee table because that is the TV cabinet I have and wanted them to match. Only 2 were offered. I really wanted a table with drawers (the larger one offered drawers) but needed a smaller table so I chose the smaller. It is beautiful and fits the space perfectly... but wish it had offered drawers instead of the lift top that I may never use. I read reviews that said it was easy to assemble but I didn’t believe that... but thankfully I was wrong. It was VERY easy to assemble. The lift mechanism raises and lowers very smoothly. i am very happy.... just wish it had a drawer.
