I recently added this rotating drafting table to my workspace, and it has quickly become a must-have. As someone who does a variety of tasks—sketching, drafting, and occasional crafting—the versatility of this table has truly impressed me.Design & Quality:This table is not only practical but also a beautiful piece of furniture. The wood is of high quality, and the satin finish adds an elegant touch. Its smooth rotating surface allows me to easily adjust angles during long projects without having to constantly reposition myself. Plus, the rotation can be locked in place, which is crucial for more precise work.Adjustability:The adjustable height and tilt are perfect for a range of tasks. I can set the table at an ideal angle for drawing or tilt it back to a flat surface for cutting and other activities. Despite the adjustments, the table remains very stable and doesn’t wobble, even at its maximum height.Assembly:Though it’s a solid, heavy piece, I managed to assemble it by myself (and I’m 66 years old!). The process took about an hour. The instructions were clear, and all the tools were included. The only challenge was making sure I took my time with the heavier parts, but it was overall a smooth experience.Pro Tips for Assembly:Make sure not to tighten the screws on the rotating bars until both sides are properly slotted in, or the bar won’t align with the screws.Take care to secure the rotating mechanism tightly to avoid any minor shifts during use.Keep the surface clean, as dust can interfere with the smooth rotation.Consider pairing it with a height-adjustable chair for maximum comfort and ergonomic alignment.In summary, this rotating drafting table is a fantastic investment for artists, designers, and crafters. It’s not only functional but also a stunning addition to any creative workspace!

Aside from this being a beautiful piece of furniture, every aspect of its design, manufacture and functionality, is superb as follows:- the quality of all components is top.- the accuracy of all dimensions and fits is perfect—assembly was problem free.- the table is more rigid than they claim.- the table height and tilt are adjustable.- every component came wrapped or padded, there was no damage or scratching.- a quality screw driver and Allen wrench were included and no more was required.- the illustrated manual was intuitive and left nothing unexplained.- the feet are glides that slide on hard surfaces or rugs equally well.*** …if you sit in a recliner, the leading edge of this table will slide forward to reach your lap so you can write without reaching.*** …I’m on crutches and practically live in my recliner, but I can slide the table back, stand and easily walk away.(And yes, I’m a calligrapher and retired manufacturing engineer, so I know all this stuff…you can trust my independent and honest review—this truly is a great product!)

Impressive quality! The drawing table came broken down in a flat box; assembly required. Each wood part was contained in a bubble wrap bag of the correct size for the part. Hardware came grouped in packages for the specific assembly step. All materials (wood, metal, hardware) were of very good quality. Wood finish is consistent and attractive. Assembly instructions were easy to follow and the assembly process was simple. Once assembled, I expected the table would be unstable on my carpeted floor; it was rock solid. The table surface appears to be smooth; I have not used it, yet. The T square head is loose; only held on with 3 screws. It's fixable but the edge of the t square head was slightly bowed and rocked when trying to draw a line. The table edge that the t square rides against is not perfectly straight. I would advise buying a t square with a much wider head than the one provided. If you've assembled some of the DIY furniture or shelves made with particle board, you know some of the pitfalls of putting them together. My drafting table had no pitfalls. Very pleased with this purchase!

I use this for drafting. It's a nice little desk. Sturdy enough, lots of surface area for big drafting sheets. Overall a good out of ten.I think the price is probably a bit high for what it is. I wish it was taller. I can't find a comfortable stool that goes low enough to sit at this when the top is tilted.I attached two hanging/swinging/auto-leveling boxes to the side for drafting tools because there's no where to put anything on this when it's tilted. That's fine, that was expected.The tilting of the top is my other major complaint. In order to tilt it you have to unscrew two very long screws, one from each side, tilt, then re-screw. This takes enough time that I don't bother. Thankfully I have a machine shop so I'll be building spring loaded pins to replace these screws. If that's not an option for you I would take that in to consideration.

Here goes my first review on Amazon. I bought this item recently, and I received the item yesterday. The desk is partially broken. The overall Look of the item is elegant. But beware that the items will be partially broken. I previously read reviews calling out the item was broken, but given it was one or two reviews I still went ahead and bought it. But now my experience is the same as others. I would only recommend buying this item if you’re OK living with a partially broken item
