Seconique Richmond Foldaway Dining Table in Oak Varnish

Firstly I should say that Amazon had this on their site for about £189 and it now seems to be more but I'm sure it'll go down again. As you'll see in the fully assembled piece in the video, there are no bolt push throughs to the top surface, neither were there any blemishes to speak of despite the numerous reviews that allude to the problems. Now, this may be that the manufacturers are including spring washers as well as flat washers under the bolts that go up into the surface, or it could be that I just tightened them just sufficiently to bite and hold-but no more than that. Yes, it's not solid wood, but even so it's practicality outweighed the small imperfections found. We are using it as a study desk in a bedroom that can be opened up if the need arises, but being a bedroom, can be made smaller but still usable as a desk to save room. As you can see, I put some pads underneath as I have hard floors, these also take out the slight imperfections in the height of the legs. Also, the hinges were pre-fitted so the legs came ready to bolt to the top surface. Pros: Great value considering the price and overall finish Usability in a variety of situations ( I can see if our dining table doesn't house enough guests when having lots of people over, we can press this into service as an extra one and then return it to duty as a desK after) Not too heavy to move around Very sturdy Easy and quick to open up-and stays there once opened up, our last one of this type, the legs crept inwards Legs with extra supports are more attractive than the others of this type that are around belying it's cheaper price point Cons: As can be seen in the third photo (after the video) the selection of wood thickness was a bit off, but a friend who came and saw it didn't see it until I pointed it out) In the fourth photo, the legs were slightly misaligned in the vertical plane, but as above, I had to point it out All in all, I'm very pleased for the cost, especially as the top is really smooth making it look more expensive than it is.

Hired handyman to put together and he was impressed with quality of table and very sturdy. Looks as hoped and very easy to extend.

Very easy to put together and seems very well made and sturdy, two screws are missing from the hinges on the legs but this can be solved with buying some brass screws and just doing it yourselves

I love this so much! I use it as a desk but when extended can fit 4 for dining. Easy to put together and not a lot of parts and it is such great quality and a space saver too. Been looking for this type of table for a long time and it's just ideal for saving space. It's a 2 in 1 that really does what it says on the tin!

Table and concept is great. However despite following all the instructions and not using any power tools the screws to attach the top pushed through into the surface. We didn’t even screw them all the way in.

Fantastic quality. Would highly recommend. Value for money? 100% Very easy to build Solid piece. Looks lovely .

Easy to put together, but screws can only be inserted by the Allen key provided. Extension sides swing out and top opens onto the sides. Very big when opened but neat when folded. Looks very classy. Lots of compliments on this table. So happy I found it for my limited space.

I only gave this table 3 stars due to the state of the table delivered. It was covered in what seemed to be graphite grease underneath of which was orange staining. Amazon soon rectified this and sent out a replacement which was okay but was chipped in a few places on the legs but not noticeably so. Note: When screwing the cross members and legs onto the table, the supplied screws, if tightened slightly too much, are long enough to bulge and possibly come through the table top so keep an eye on the top when fitting for any deviation in the surface of the wood. Once constructed this table is sturdy and is a great piece of useful, space saving furniture.
