Review on 🎨 Vintage Solid Wood Drawing Table: 36" Adjustable Tilting Top, Distressed Black Finish by Natalie Gregory

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice looks and great quality for the price. Designed to be used at an angle, not flat.

I bought this table to protect my neck and back when solving problems. Considering the price of $150, I'm very impressed. Many of the puzzle boards I've bought are about the same price. It's nice to have a beautiful piece of furniture designed specifically for jigsaw puzzles. I read all reviews before purchasing and was concerned about damaged and broken parts. It took my experienced husband about 45 minutes to put it together and he said all the parts and screws are in order and fit together as they should. I let you watch the video for a full visual description of the moving parts. I also highlighted the pros and cons. Pros: Huge work surface, great for jigsaw puzzles, drawing, and general creativity. Nice wood color (but by no means rustic) Easy assembly The top tilts to different heights The pen tray works well and also keeps projects from sliding on the tilting table. When tilted, it can be used with a table-height chair. When a flat, standing or high stool will work. Adjustable chair: perfect. Attractive. Inexpensive. Cons: Fairly unstable and wobbly when laying flat. (I'd be disappointed if I bought it to work on a flat surface) It's not "rustic" - it has a smooth finish like red oak. The package was perforated upon arrival (we were lucky the table was undamaged). The holes for adjusting the height of the table are large, causing some wobble on the sides. (Probably a cheap fix.) Attaching the pin/screw takes some guesswork to get the angle right - you can't see the hole you're about to make. Unless you are very small this seems impossible. so you can work on it while standing. A high stool is suitable for this. A NOTICE. My husband is a hobby carpenter and furniture maker. His opinion? "It only has 2 legs and a light base - it wobbles if you try to use it horizontally. It's much more reliable when tilted. What do you expect from 150€? They are tricky, you can definitely put a wedge or material in there to reduce the wobble. "Hope this helps! We would definitely buy it again.

Pros
  • also understandable for the old ones
Cons
  • Some little things
