Hiba Oak & Metal Coffee Table, natural, LA REDOUTE INTERIEURS

The finished table us beautiful but it was an absolute nightmare to assemble. Pre drilled holes would be useful. The instructions specifically say not to use power tools/drills and only a hand screwdriver so it was definitely more hard work than it needed to be!!

I also think it'll scratch really easily which is not ideal.

Such a shame because the overall design is beautiful.

Over £400 at full price the quality is poor. If I had got as far as assembling it this would have been difficult as there are no pre-drilled hole in the top and shelf. I don't know if this is another fault or a design flaw.

Really lovely materials. Looks great, was able to construct this on my own.

In the process of renovating my living space and this coffee table was exactly what I was looking for. It’s a really nice quality piece and looks fantastic in the room. A word of caution when assembling it though; it certainly wasn’t quick or easy. The instructions say no drill required, assume so as not to damage the wood, however you have to screw the top and under shelf to the metal which is really difficult as the oak is solid. Overall a good buy. This is a sturdy and good quality table.

I was disappointed when putting this together to discover that the various parts of the steel frame do not meet flush in the corners. Because of errors/inaccuracies in where the screw holes are drilled, the 'leg' parts do not meet the main 'frame' nicely. The corners do not line up very well, some worse than others.That said, it is very easy to put together, with only a screwdriver required additional to the hex/allen key provided. The wood also looks attractive.

This is an attractive, practical and sturdy table. It was easy to put together. It has transformed our room.

Easy to assemble, easy to clean, gloss oak finish and looks great. Happy I didnt go for a cheaper alternative elsewhere that was 'wood-style' rather than solid wood like this table is

Love the look of this table which fits in beautifully. Assembly not easy as the wood is very hard and you have to drill your own screw holes to fit the top and under shelf to the metal. You can't use an electric drill for fear of splitting the wood so a slow process. 2 handed job.
