- Is the top real solid wood or a veneer?
- The listing describes both the top and the main material as wood. Solid wood can be sanded and refinished; a veneer cannot. Check the underside of the top when it arrives to confirm.
- Will it fit beside a standard sofa or armchair?
- At 18 inches across and 22 inches tall, it sits at or just below most sofa arms. That makes it a good side table, but a large lamp shade may overhang the top.
- How much weight can it hold?
- A pedestal table this size is meant for a lamp, a book or a drink, not for sitting on or stacking. Keep heavy items off the top and off the base.
- Does it need assembly?
- Pedestal tables usually ship with the top, column and foot separate. Expect to bolt the column to the top and base with the included hardware; a screwdriver and a few minutes are enough.
- How do I protect the white finish?
- Use coasters under drinks and felt pads under lamps and vases. Wipe with a damp cloth rather than abrasive cleaners, which can dull the paint or lacquer.
- Is it stable on carpet?
- A wide pedestal foot spreads the load well on low-pile carpet. On thick pile the table can rock slightly, so set it where it will not be bumped.
- Where is the SlickBlue D-HR-286298 Solid Wood Round Pedestal End Table 18" x 22" cheapest?
