ZINUS Jen 47 Inch Dining Table/Solid Wood Kitchen Desk/Easy Assembly, Natural Brown

Sturdy, well made table. Easy to assemble. Looks nice.

I was actually so impressed with this table! Ordered on Friday Feb 16 and it got here on Monday the 19th, despite it being presidents day. The contents inside were all packaged nicely; every piece of wood is in contact with styrofoam and I didn't see any damages to any pieces, so that was a relief. Building the table was also very easy and intuitive. The table top itself is already built, all you need to do is screw in all 4 legs which honestly took under 15 minutes. The table itself is actually VERY sturdy. The legs aren't flimsy when moving or carrying the table and everything seems very secure. The wood is VERY nice. I'm actually so impressed for the price of this table. This style goes with everything in my apartment and is small enough to fit in my living room. Really great purchase. I'd recommend this to a friend

Solid wood; espresso is dark however not as dark as coffee. Beautiful color, nice looking grain, super easy to assemble. If you look closely you can see variances and a small dent or two in the table top. Had I paid $500 for the table that would be a dealbreaker. At just over $100 I think I can manage my expectations! No one will ever notice them anyway. I took pictures with the chairs I ordered from Amazon so you can see how nicely they go together. Amazon shows these chairs and this table as "frequently bought together" and it's easy to see why: pretty sweet little dining set for about 300 bucks total. Does not look cheap at all. The chairs were also easy to assemble, look great and are comfy for my 5'10" frame. The second photo shows that while the color of the chair legs isn't a perfect match, it's pretty good... good enough for this non-perfectionist! I just got all these today so I can't rate durability. However, solid wood tables tend to last a decade or three. And when solid wood furniture gets dinged up too much, you can always refinish it or paint it. I like the smaller size too: I have a 1959 ranch with relatively small rooms and my other dining room table (solid wood, 70 years old and going strong) overwhelmed the DR. This size is just right for two, altho four adults would work fine I think.

This table is amazing! It's thoughtfully packed; I assembled two different pieces of flat pack furniture today from two different companies, and this one was far superior. All the corners were protected by styrofoam inserts, all the styrofoam in the package was sealed in plastic (no styrofoam snow all over the place while I was unpacking and assembling!), and the hardware was blister packed on a cardboard card so nothing was roaming loose in the box. It came with the usual L-shaped hex tool, but Zinus also included their own branded hex tool with a nice handle that was much easier to work with. Eight bolts and you're done. The instructions have large, clear diagrams. The package also included an envelope with a thank you note and blank cards to send to friends/family. This company cares about its product AND its presentation! The table itself is lovely. I purchased the natural version, and in person it's a mellow honey color. The legs are solid wood with felt feet already attached, and the top is real wood all the way through. It is a pieced wood, not a solid top. I included a picture to show what it looks like because the joins are very visible, but not messy or unpleasant. The hardware was all heavy duty and included bolts and washers. It would be very easy to paint this table. It's also got a nice weight and it's sturdy enough that I dont anticipate any issues using it as a craft table. Some pictures show this table with two chairs on each of the long sides, but they'd have to be very narrow. This table was a great buy for around $100. I am so pleasantly surprised by the quality of the whole package at the price point...honestly, it put most of the other flat pack furniture I've bought or assembled to absolute shame. This is a great piece!

Bought this table for our dining area(s). We move quite often, so I wanted something that looked nice and modern, yet was easy to move and assemble with limited tools and time, as well as be sturdy enough to survive multiple moves. The table itself is the perfect size for two, but can seat up to four, albeit a bit cramped, though I like a good bit of space when I eat. The size is comparable to a 4-seater at a typical restaurant. The table comes in five parts, the top and four legs, which easily bolt on with two screws each, attached with a hex tool. They do provide a nifty little ratcheting tool instead of the typical l-key, which was very nice. The wood is a bit on the softer side, but as long as your not cutting directly on it, or throwing things down too much, it shouldn't see much more wear and tear than a table normally would. Any nicks that have come up, I've easily been able to hide with a sharpie marker. Overall, for the price, I don't think there's too much one could ask. It's a table, it has survived two moves so far, and it looks pretty darn nice.

La mesa es muy bonita, de buena calidad y muy fácil para montar. El precio muy económico. Me ha llegado perfecta, muy bien empaquetada, bien protegida contra los golpes. Me encanta!

I'd been looking to replace my monolithic, heavy, one-spill-and-it's-warped-forever veneer-over-particleboard dining table for a while but the prices for tables like this one are double, triple elsewhere and they're also made overseas and no more impressive in person. Took a chance on Zinus and am very pleased. It's got some minor cons but I think they're outweighed by the pros. It was packaged very well and arrived without any damage. Easy to bring into the house by yourself. It's made of solid wood, no particleboard, no veneer, no melamine. Let me repeat that: IT'S MADE OF SOLID WOOD. At this price. Sure, it's pine, not walnut or mahogany. But it costs about as much as a really nice dinner out for two after Zumba class. And it's a sturdy, functional table that four people can sit at and have a nice time, maybe with a big pan of lasagna, some board games afterwards. Nicole will spill her wine as a distraction so she can cheat, but with a quick wipe and a blind eye, the table and the friendship should both survive (so long as as Dan doesn't mention the post-Zumba-class dinner). The tabletop is already assembled, with the side skirts and corner leg brackets installed -- all you have to do is bolt on the legs. To that end, Zinus includes the bolts, some nicely firm spring washers, and flat washers; all very high quality, with two full spares (two bolts, two spring washers, two flat washers). The real surprise is the included ratcheting hex key, which works really well. No more tightening a quarter turn, pulling the key out, putting it back in and tightening another quarter turn, scraping your knuckles on the skirt and risking stripping the bolt head each time. Why don't all 'assembly required' furniture manufacturers do this?! They also include a standard hex key for masochists, very inclusive. And the included greeting and thank-you cards are a thoughtful touch (I mean this sincerely, they're quite nice, I'll be filling in the thank-you card and mailing it back to Zinus, for the nice table). So the cons. Real nitpicks at this price point, but I'll mention them, because other reviews might make a bigger deal of them than they ought to. It's made of pine. It's finished well (the colour on the 'espresso' is a deep, rich brown that has a nice hint of burgundy if the light hits it right), but it's still made of pine. It will dent and mar more easily than hardwood. It's not hardwood. But if you don't knock the edges with a golf club or write a ballpoint-pen confession without a placemat, it should do okay. I haven't had Nicole over yet so I don't know how it will fare after a wine spill, but I feel confident. There are a couple of noticeable quarter-sized knots on my tabletop that can be felt when I run my finger over them with a blindfold on. And there is visible finger joinery -- that's the kind where two pieces of wood are attached to each other by joining two zigzagged edges -- both on the tabletop and on two of the legs. You should be able to see some in the photo I've included. Some people won't like it. Others will see it as proof that IT'S MADE OF SOLID WOOD. It's not a printed-on woodgrain pattern, it's pieces of pine that have been attached using a strong joint that can't be felt at all. Until we splice brontosaurus DNA into pine tree DNA and grow pine trees big enough to cut whole tabletops out of, finger joinery will have to do. It's a good table.

This table exceeded my expectationsm it was easy to assemble and sturdy.

Il tavolo è molto bello.

Fantastic table at a reasonable price.
