Comments about Studio Designs Ponderosa Table:

The table arrived a week earlier than expected,had no instructions and the drawer was damaged but usable.
Having read the other reviews... I was careful with the assembly. It was a breeze!
The versatile glass top can be used as a light table.
I immediately taped some reference pictures and notes to the underside of the glass and went to work.
GREAT VALUE FOR THE MONEY!

Comments about Studio Designs Ponderosa Table:

I think I'm going to be very happy with my table. It appears sturdy and was well packed for shipping. However, for those who may be planning to purchase this model be prepared for a few negative assembly issues. I am a retired engineer with many skills and much experience, so I caught the problem early. While the assembly instructions eventually get the job done, they are at best vague. For example, there is no indication on the back brace for which side is "up" . . . where you ultimately must attach the mechanical arm to support the glass top. Even if carefully following the instructions you may assemble it inverted and might not notice until later; you will then be required to completely disassemble all your work and start over (the loss of about an hour) to fix your error. Or, if you can, you might simply drill a few more holes – much simpler). I'm sure if the product were made in the USA, not China; the instructions would have been better.
