Ameriwood HomeAltra Owen Retro Coffee Table with Metal Legs, Distressed Gray Oak

We turned this into a LEGO table by painting the top white and adding LEGO plates. This is a really great size for 6 year olds to stand around and use for Legos.The table top did come damaged with dents on two sides but we didn’t care because we covered the dents with plates. We neede 9 10x10 plates to cover (9th plate had to be cut into two strips). Make sure to use Legos as positioners when gluing so the plates line up (see photo).The table is pretty sturdy and heavier than I expected. Per the instructions it can hold 40 lbs. It took about 10 minutes to add the legs. It includes an Allen wrench to insert the screws for the legs. 4 screws per leg. They even included two extra bolts. The legs are at a slant so make sure you pay attention to the angle of the legs (angle them out).All in all it took about 2 hours to paint, add the legs, cut the LEGO squares and then glue on the top (which I lightly sanded before gluing).I paid under $50 for the table so I’m happy. It would be even better if the legs folded but that’s ok.

I really like the quality of this coffe table and the accompanying side table from the same vendor. Although the table is made of laminated particle board, the quality of the particle board and laminate, along with the fact that it hollow core makes for a table that is strong but not obscenely heavy, as is the case with furniture made of a lower quality particle board material. I am happy with the look and quality of the furniture. I do feel that the manufacturer could do more with the packaging to protect the funiture in transit, as there was some compression damage on one corner of the table where it was obvious that the box the table came in had been dropped on its corner in transit (see picture.

For the price, this coffee table is great. It definitely doesn't look expensive, but it is well-designed and chic. It doesn't have any texture, since it's just wood veneer, and its shininess looks kind of cheap and institutional. But it looks really nice paired with a plant and a textured rug. The hairpin legs seem to be good quality. We are moving in the next few years and don't want to accumulate more furniture we'll need to take with us, so this coffee table is perfect for right now. We plan to replace the cheap top with a solid wood one after we move. The price for this coffee table is almost worth it just for the hairpin legs.

I have had this coffee table for a year now, and it's doing great. It took about 20 minutes tops for me to put together. The grayish finish is really nice. It doesn't look 100% real, but the color and pattern are nice enough that I don't mind. Being the type of material the top is we always use coasters with drinks, otherwise it would be ruined if liquid were to sit on it for a while and not be cleaned up. The legs are even and not bent, and the table has been fine with having good some weight on it (20lb cats, a couple teenagers who sat on it once or twice before we told them to move, small dogs who try to find crumbs, etc).

Not bad at all for a $60 coffee table! I love the hairpin legs and gray colored vinyl top. We didn't have any issues with it arriving broken or bent. It has not given us any problems with normal use. I will update this post if it gets worn out too quick.Product is given 4 stars instead of 5 because I can tell that the top vinyl is pretty cheap. I may just cover it with a wood grain contact paper if it ever rips or has issues.

My husband and I bought this a couple of months ago and we really like it. We bought a lot of the other furniture pieces in Altra series too. Delivery took about a week. Once we received it, it was very easy to assemble. All the tools and pieces were clearly labeled. Maintenance is also very easy. The only reason why I'm not giving this 5 stars is because the wood-like top seal does bubble when liquid is left on its surface. Once we discovered it, we avoid that issue by using coasters :-)

Not crazy about the fake wood grain. But hey, it was cheap and looked like it would pair well with the sofa I'm still waiting for after two weeks.UPDATE: the legs are great! Very sturdy. Table was easy to put together.However, the finish nothing short of garbage. After approximately a month of use, the surface has two bubbles around light scratches, and now has peeled up at one corner, FYI it's a giant sticker. There is no sealant over it whatsoever. I certainly would not purchase again, let alone recommend it, not for $60. This is a $30 table.

Very sturdy, and doesn't have that 'flimsy' feel that a lot of cheaper tables like this can give you. My son uses this in our basement for his gaming setup. Went with this model specifically because of the metal legs. So far has survived without any dings, or having the legs loosen up like others have.

Cute little coffee table! The only issue is that the top is laminate and not wood, so pretty cheap (don't spill water or it will bubble!)

easy to put together and looks great in my place! I would order more of their products!

great product, nicely built. can't go wrong with the price

great coffee table - very sturdy and easy to clean.

Looks exactly like picture, very sturdy.
