- Is it real wood or veneer?
- It is built from solid rubberwood, a dense plantation hardwood, not a veneer over particleboard. That makes it heavier and more repairable than most budget side tables.
- How big is the table?
- It is a compact end table with a round top and a lower shelf, sized to sit beside a sofa or bed. Check the listed dimensions against your gap before ordering, since round tops need clearance at the back.
- Can it hold a lamp and books?
- Yes. The top takes a table lamp or a tray, and the lower shelf holds books or a basket. Keep heavy loads on the lower shelf for stability.
- Does it need assembly?
- Expect to attach the legs and lower shelf on arrival. Rubberwood is hard, so tighten screws by hand first and finish with a screwdriver to avoid stripping the threads.
- Will drinks leave marks on the top?
- An unprotected wood finish can ring from condensation and heat. Use coasters and trivets, and treat scratches with a matching wood touch-up or a light refinish.
- Does it work as a nightstand?
- Yes, if your bed sits low enough for the top to land near mattress height. The lower shelf is handy for books and a charger, but there are no drawers to hide small items.
