I'm a petite woman but I was able to assemble it all by myself, although it was kind of difficult at certain parts because I didn't follow the instructions and made a mistake that caused me to have to take it a part and do it over again. When you're putting the top part on, I recommend turning the table vertically because I was having a hard time putting the metal hinges on with the table right side up. At first I was worried the table wouldn't be sturdy enough because it was shaking a little in the beginning while I was putting the pieces together but in the end the table is very sturdy and can hold a lot stuff inside, underneath and on table of it. The wood seems to be decent quality, especially for the price and it doesn't scratch easily. The table top opens and closes easily. I like that it's made out if wood instead of mostly metal. It's the right size for my small living room and makes it look more put together. I can fit thin throw blankets, video games and movies into the storage part. The only suggestion I have would be to have more colors and styles to choose from but I do like the black and think it looks very modern.

Far exceeded my expectations. Easy enough to assemble with just 2 people, sturdy, and looks nice. Love the lift top feature. Overall very happy with my purchase.

Wow what a deal! Bought this table for my brother's new apartment. He is an outdoor guy. The style, color of the wood and design were perfect for him. The storage is great and keeps the clutter from being apparent. The lift up what I call a desk top is perfect for a laptop or a tv dinner tray.

I have captured the detailed pictures of the unboxing and assembly process for this table, hoping this will benefit other buyers. My recommendation is you need at least 2 people and 1.5 hours to finish this in one sitting, as I did.
The finished product is a beautiful coffee table as you see in the picture. I bought this one specially for it's full hydrolic raised top feature, and also fact that top has edges around the surface, making it a overall a unique piece. Other similar tables I browsed have no edges and I feel the things may slide off when top is raised.
This is a heavy table, almost 50 lbs, and feels very sturdy. The hydrolic function is smooth, though due to the top weight, needs to be pulled back to raise the top, push doesn't work.
The storage box is decently deep and I plan to keep all electronic accessories nearly secured in here for easy access.
The accessories didnot include the screwdriver needed for the assembly, so I used the one from my own toolkit. But it have extra hardware for each screw type as a backup, so that helped.

It was too small for the area we wanted it for.

Very easy to assemble; (mostly) sturdy. Did it in about 45 minutes all by myself. Though if you have two people, it'd go faster. The table itself is sturdy and doesn't wobble, but the lid isn't as sturdy as I'd have hoped. I bought it more for the raised edges than to have a lift top that I'd be opening and closing constantly. The raised edges help keep the items I place on it since the cats like to knock things off. The color matches perfectly with my black, gray and red living room decor/color scheme and other furniture. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase.

Good for a small area. The top coming up is a little lower than I was hoping. It did take me, alone, a good 4 hours to put it together. Looking forward to the extra storage.

I was a little disappointed that it wasn’t solid wood but it is very well-made and that's what counts! I need to read the descriptions more thoroughly though as I put in the search bar solid wood coffee table. I have wanted 1 with the lift top for a while and this 1 is very well-made for not being solid wood. It was super hard to get the screws lined up for the hinge I had to take off the top 8 times. Never did get it perfect but it's good enough and it's only me that I have to impress so I’m good with it!!
