Adams

This table is stunning. We loved it so much that we ordered two more for other parts of our condo. #sweepstakes

I chose the Adams table in the ash, whitewashed finish. The table is heavy for its size so it doesn't feel like it would easily tip over. The feet are elegant and the proportions are beautiful. I am not a fan of coffee tables and plan to use this in my small scale living room in front of the sofa to have a place to set drinks.

Lovely table. Just the right amount of style to fit in with an eclectic mix of furniture.

I can't use it

This beautifully designed item deserves better wood/grain selection, at least for the maple wood version. I requested a replacement for one that had unacceptable dark irregularities in the top surface. As I feared, the replacement was even worse. It had similar dark marks on the top plus the stem was of darker maple wood (or a darker stain) than the top and legs/feet, and there were two large dark marks, one about 1-1/2 inches by 3" and another about 1" x1" on the top that looked like smudges going across the grain. This kind of grain selection and quality control on the Adams accent table would never have been found in actual American-made furniture in the mid-century, this kind of "natural" was not considered good craftsmanship. In the 50's and 60's, even mass produced furniture, was made of wood sections that were carefully matched as to grain and selected for "cleanness." Customer service was accommodating when I requested a replacement for the original table but the replacement arrived I had no choice but to send it back, and they do not offer the option of yet another replacement. Only because it's unlikely I'll find another table elsewhere made of maple that will coordinate with the other furniture in my office I am stuck with the original piece and my disappointment. To sum up, I don't feel you will necessarily receive a better product should you request a replacement for one with wood grain characteristics you can't live with. To be fair, I would like to add that although this table's design is slim and elegant, it is not particularly lightweight is and perfectly stable, and the crossbar is definitely not visible from any normal viewing angle in a fairly large room. Plus the design is a winner, hence the 2 stars. With respect to the maple wood, I have other pieces of maple furniture (tables and bookcases) from Room and Board that are lovely with no visible grain defects whatsoever.

Truly beautiful.

I was tired of years of clutter collecting around my nightstand, which most recently had been a bookcase. I decided that the only way to solve the clutter was to make it impossible to occur. So I got rid of the bookshelf and replaced it with this accent table (which is the perfect height) and the Tenda Pharmacy Floor Lamp. Now I have just enough room for two books and a cellphone by my bed, which frankly is all one really needs.

The color and design are amazing. It is rather lightweight so I wouldn't put it in a heavy traffic area as I've already knocked it over twice. I also scratched it putting a flower arrangement. Bottom line is that you cannot find a table that looks this good anywhere else. It's simple and goes with our transitional living room perfectly.

It has a beautiful feel and is light which makes it easy to move around...now if I could only train my dog not to try and walk underneath it!

We originally ordered this in Cherry finish, but when it arrived, we did not like it with the other furnishings and it had some funky knot holes in the seams of the base (not an attractive "natural" look, more of a blemished look). We decided to try the Walnut finish, which looks great. The wood quality is much higher, and worth the extra $50. We love this little table, but think that the QC process should be a bit more ridged.
