Coffee Table Read-me 130x65x40

The Coffee Table Read-Me measures 130 centimeters in width, 65 centimeters in depth, and stands at a height of 42 centimeters. This rectangular low table has a total volumetric footprint of 0.3500 cubic meters and weighs 17.00 kilograms. The entirety of the visible and structural components utilizes solid mindi wood, known scientifically as Melia azedarach, which is sourced for its fine grain and consistent density. Mindi wood features a light natural tone that ranges from pale yellow to soft beige, possessing a straight grain pattern with a medium texture that accepts sanding and finishing processes evenly.

The top surface spans the full 130 by 65 centimeter dimensions, providing a flat horizontal plane supported by four vertical legs positioned near the corners. The edge profile of the tabletop is finished with a straight cut, maintaining a consistent thickness across the entire surface area. The joinery connecting the legs to the apron involves mortise and tenon techniques, ensuring stability without relying on visible metal fasteners on the primary surfaces. The clearance underneath the tabletop measures approximately 34 centimeters, accommodating floor clearance for robotic vacuums and allowing seated users to position their legs underneath when seated close to the edge.

The surface finish consists of a clear matte polyurethane coating applied over the sanded mindi wood. This protective layer seals the porous grain against liquid spills, moisture absorption, and surface abrasion while retaining the natural color and tactile feel of the timber. Maintenance requires only a dry or damp microfiber cloth for routine cleaning, avoiding the need for specialized oils or chemical polishes. The weight of 17 kilograms provides adequate mass to prevent sliding during normal interaction while remaining light enough for two people to lift and reposition across hardwood or carpeted flooring.

The structural design incorporates an integrated lower shelf positioned parallel to the floor, situated approximately 15 centimeters above the ground. This secondary surface spans the interior length and width between the four legs, creating a dedicated storage zone for books, periodicals, and flat accessories. The inclusion of this lower tier increases the total functional surface area of the furniture piece, separating active tabletop use from stationary storage. The slats or solid panel of the shelf are fastened directly to the internal frame supports using hidden dowels and structural adhesives.

The assembly process is completed at the manufacturing facility, meaning the table arrives at the destination in a fully assembled state, bypassing the need for domestic hardware installation or hex-key tightening. The legs feature integrated non-marking plastic glides affixed to the base of each foot to prevent scratching on delicate flooring surfaces such as oak parquet, polished concrete, or ceramic tile. The wood used in the construction undergoes a kiln-drying process to reduce moisture content to between eight and twelve percent, mitigating the risk of warping, splitting, or joint separation caused by seasonal humidity shifts within interior residential or commercial environments.
