Is $160.99 a good price for this console table?

It is the only new price listed, $160.99 at Lowe's as of November 7, 2026, so there is nothing lower to compare it with. For a solid wood two-tier console of this size, that is a mid-range price rather than a bargain.

How wide is it, and will it fit my hallway?

It is 46 inches wide and narrow front to back, made for hallways and entryways where a deeper table would block the walkway. Measure your wall and leave clearance for the top and lower shelf to be usable.

What can I store on the lower shelf?

The open second tier fits baskets, shoe trays or stacked books. It is open on all sides, so anything you put there stays visible.

Does it need assembly?

Yes, it ships flat and needs assembly. The parts count is small, so most people finish it in under an hour with a screwdriver.

Is the wood real or veneer?

The listing describes the main material as wood in a brown finish. Expect a solid frame with a wood top and shelf; use coasters on the top to protect the finish.

With only one store pricing it new, there is no sale history to time a purchase around. Watch for seasonal furniture events at Lowe's rather than waiting for a price drop.
