Is the UGGLERUM solid wood?

Yes. The top and base are solid rubberwood, stained in a walnut color rather than walnut veneer over particleboard. The grain varies from table to table.

How much weight can it hold?

The tabletop is rated for 20 kg (about 44 lbs). That covers a lamp, drinks and books, but not sitting on it or heavy equipment.

Will the base fit under my sofa?

The C-shaped base is designed to slide under most sofas so the top sits over your lap. Check the gap under your sofa frame against the base height before buying.

How hard is it to assemble?

Most owners describe it as quick and simple, with few parts. A minority report screws that do not line up with the pre-drilled holes, which can leave the table wobbling.

Does it match other IKEA pieces?

IKEA makes a coffee table in the same mid-century style and walnut finish, so the two can be used together in one room.

Is it good as a main coffee table?

It works better as a side or pull-up table. At 43 cm tall with a narrow round top, it is too small and too tall for a full coffee table setup.
