Arona Mid-Century Modern Wood Coffee Table with Shelf

I was looking for a mid-century modern coffee table that wouldn’t break the bank, and this one from Arona is exactly what I needed. The wood finish is gorgeous—warmer in person than in the photos—and the lower shelf is super handy for storing books, remotes, or even a cozy throw blanket. Assembly was straightforward (took me about 20 minutes solo), and it feels really sturdy. No wobbling, even with my dog bumping into it constantly. The size is just right for my small-ish living room—big enough to hold drinks and snacks but not overwhelming. My only tiny gripe? The edges are slightly sharper than I expected, so if you have little kids, you might want to be careful. Otherwise, it’s a fantastic table for the price. Looks way more expensive than it is! Highly recommend. Read more

Way heavier and nicer than what I would have expected for what I paid for it. Seems very solid and it’s large. Really love this table. Not super difficult to put together but the bottom support pieces are a little tricky. I did it by myself in less than an hour but NGL, I was sweating! Really like the style and the shelf underneath is a bonus. Read more

I love this table. I can't believe it is this price. I wanted something mid century that was sturdy and affordable and this hits all of those things. I really recommend this and have already bought the matching side tables. All that to say, it was difficult to put together but I was also doing it by myself and it said you should have two people. The first screws were the hardest and I ended up using a hex bit from my drill and putting it on my ratching screwdriver and that worked easily but it took me a long time to figure that combo out. The Allen wrench provided was quite difficult to turn in the tight space. I also used my drill to screw in the final screws. I honestly don't know how a normal screwdriver would get through. But! It's beautiful and some trouble with putting it together shouldn't stop you from getting this. Read more

As someone who builds some wood furniture as a hobby, and wanted something affordable to just “be used;” the build quality is very good for the price. Read more

Nice color, easy to assemble. I have teenage boys that want to sit on it all the time. It’s not sturdy enough for that. Love the MCM/Danish modern style. Read more

Table was quick and easy for me to put together on my own. It looks fantastic even if it’s not solid wood material, it’s well executed and still looks sturdy. Just don’t sit on it. The extra storage space is great since my living room is small. Read more

This table came and it is exactly as pictured! The walnut color is true to the pictures. Table is a nice, durable wood material. It took my husband about 25 minutes to put together. He did use his drill to screw in some of the final pieces. It looks amazing in our midcentury modern living room. Read more

Great looking table and concept. There are some design flaws in the assembly. The biggest flaw is using the hex key to attach the lower board to the legs. The predrilled holes are not the easiest to reach with the hex key. When you tighten it all the way, it splinters the opposite surface, and still feels slightly wobbly. It feels sturdier after attaching the table top. There are two additional pieces that are meant to be drilled into the table bottom surface for stability, but there are no predrilled holes for these. I stopped after I heard wood cracking and didn't want to cause further splintering. Maybe I'll use my drill to predrill some holes, but for now it feels sturdy enough without these peices. For what it's worth I think it's worth the money, just be careful not to tighten it too far. Read more
