Hiba Metal Bedside Table, green eucalyptus, LA REDOUTE INTERIEURS

The only thing I would say that isn’t great is you have to have the door on one side, you can’t change it! So if you are on the right side of the bed it’s awkward!

I’ve seen other reviews mention this but thought I would try it for myself. The door hinges are not secure enough to keep the doors in place. Not sure why you would keep selling a faulty product.

Several delays in getting order. Well packaged however, there is clearly a manufacturing fault which should have been picked up before dispatch. An internal dent to top of cabinet. We needed cabinet so made the decision not to return because of the problems with initial delivery and lack of confidence in any return and replacement

Ordered three of these (two in green and one charcoal). One green turned up then the charcoal one. It was well packaged but with nasty polystyrene. It was fiddly to build and if my partner wasn’t on hand, I’d have given up as one of the screws kept spinning (no thread). Once completed, it was sturdy and it looks great in son’s bedroom.

I decided to send back the other one as the last one didn’t arrive and La Redoute didn’t inform me that it had been returned to the warehouse.

It’s put me off ordering the Hiba double wardrobe as I really don’t want to add to the global landfill problem! I know LR will probably state it’s not their fault as these are made and shipped from China but if retailers and consumers complain, then they may start using cardboard instead of polystyrene. I’ve ordered other furniture where they’ve used hard cardboard and corrugated card instead.

I have been hesitant about what bedroom furniture to buy for my pre-teen boys and have spent weeks and months considering the HIBA.

I finally decided to purchase the cabinet, which requires 2-people to assemble; choose your assembly partner wisely, as assembling the cabinet can test a stable relationship!

Once we worked out what went where, which in fairness to the instructions supplied, were comprehensive, but not fail-safe.

Overall, the cabinet looks great, no issue with missing fixings or misaligned joints, holes etc.

My one gripe is the cabinet door hinges. They fall out… a lot, so we have had to be creative and secure them in place with some masking tape to resolve this issue.

Too difficult to put together. Wrong screws for some parts. I’ve put IKEA products together- this was too difficult to fathom it out

Awful to put together, poor quality

The Hiba metal bedside table is a good quality sturdy locker style piece of furniture. The colour is just as it appears online and works perfectly with the Hiba wardrobe purchased at the same time.

The instructions were not very easy to follow but with labelled pieces it didn’t take long to put together. Inserting the shelf it fiddly but strong once in place.

Very pleased with the over all appearance and functionality.
