This is a high-quality table but the lift top is way too high. The description says 24 inches – in fact comes up to 27 inches. If you are sitting on a couch with this as your coffee table the lift top comes up to chest level. If using it to eat this is way too high. We don't eat at a table that is chest high. If you are using it for a computer this is way too high. One does not work at a computer desk that is the level of one's chest . This is a big disappointment and the company has no business misrepresenting the dimensions.
