Functions exactly as I need it to!  I purchased to use as an over bed table for an extended post-op recovery.  The surface area is substantial  and great for working, as a tv tray, and other tasks. The base is sturdy but slim enough to fit under my low sleeper sofa, which I wasn’t expecting. The 27” height not only easily fits over my bed but also allows me some leg room when using it on my sofa. This is an inexpensive end table, and it looks inexpensive. The top is marble “look” and definitely not marble. The gold of the base looks cheap as well. However, in addition to the functionality described above, it was easy to assemble (20 min), is sturdy, and the surface appears to be one that will clean easily. Four stars for the cheap look but exceeds my expectations in functionality.
