Two hundred and twenty pounds on the unlifted surface, which is the highest figure on any table of this size and comes from a 0.9 in thick top sitting on a sturdy elevated base rather than from sheer mass. Raised, that surface travels to 24 in, a working height that suits eating, typing or gaming from a sofa without leaning down to a normal coffee table. The footprint is a 31.5 in square standing 18.5 in tall when closed. Underneath is where the volume is. The hidden compartment measures 29.5 in x 29 in x 13.5 in inside, which on a square this size is close to the entire footprint and more than a foot deep, so pillows, a laptop, snacks, magazines, headphones and a coffee cup all go in rather than being distributed around the room. Very few storage tables offer a bay of that proportion. The face of it is a rustic barn door, sliding rather than swinging, which is what gives the piece its cozy farmhouse character and also means no door needs clearance in front to open. The surface itself is a wood-like finish that keeps the look warm and complements various interior decorating themes, and at 0.9 in thick it resists the marks daily wear leaves on thinner boards. The assembled weight is 70 lbs, and in practice it is three things at once: a work desk when raised, a hidden storage unit, and an ordinary coffee table when closed. It suits a home office, guest room or living room, and assembly is needed.
