This works well for many purposes: Footrest, coffee table, tray table, laptop surface, magine/blanket storage, and extra seating if needed. I thought it might be a problem not having a hard coffee table top but the tray table I have on it serves the purpose just fine. The lift top is great for eating a quick meal or snack in front of the TV or doing a little work on my laptop. No assembly, just screw on the feet and you are done. Some people complained about the top pattern not lining up perfectly but mine is fine and nothing noticeable there, if it is at all off its just a tiny bit. Its so nice to have a footrest that more than one person can use. This one is a keeper!
Great buy for the money and quite versatile
