Good buy!
I bought this as a movable computer work space I could use with my favorite reclining armchair in particular. I had some concerns after reading other reviews about putting this together and about the tabletop springing up sending my laptop and coffee flying every time I inadvertently bumped the underside with a misplaced hand or knee.I watched a Youtube video first, and read the instructions carefully. The table was well packed, the screws etc were packed in separate plastic container and clearly numbered, and the instructions seemed pretty straightforward. I'm guessing the company has made improvements here since some earlier reviews. I had an old all purpose Phillips head and some pliers and they did the job handily, Total time to put together was about 10 minutes, not counting watching the video and reading the instructions. I have mobility problems and am not very handy and it was definitely on the easy side for me.<br /><br />Once together it was solid, large enough to hold my laptop and an extra ASUS 20 inch screen along with coffee, snack, pen papers, phone and 2 remotes. It fits easily over the chair when the foot rest is extended and rolls easily out and back as I get up and down. One thing I DIDN'T do.... Once assembled, I noticed the base table height, as is, was right where wanted it if not and inch or two higher. I couldn't imagine any reason I would want or need to raise it so I never removed the black screw that releases the mechanism that does so. This leaves me with a very steady laptop and coffee safe surface that I don't have to worry will rise suddenly if I brush the underside with my knee. I know some have complained of this and I can't comment as to how sensitive, or how much of a problem it might be. I admit to being a little curious but as it is with the screw left in, the table height is solid, safe and perfect for me. This table does everything I hoped it would, is much better made than what I would have expected for the price, and provides great value for the money. I am quite pleased with this purchase.
