Coffe Tabel Mike Slats

The Coffee Table Mike Slats measures 193.00 cm in width, 101.00 cm in depth, and 31.00 cm in height, presenting a low-profile, elongated rectangular surface designed for central placement in large living areas. Fabricated entirely from teak wood, the piece utilizes the natural density, oil content, and tight grain structure characteristic of mature teak timber. The table weighs 57.03 kg, indicating substantial material mass that provides inherent stability without the need for supplementary internal framing. The total volume occupied by the packed unit is 0.6043 cubic meters, reflecting its expansive footprint and heavy-duty construction specifications.

The primary design feature of this model is the slatted construction method applied to the tabletop surface. Individual teak boards are arranged with uniform gaps between them, running lengthwise across the 193 cm span. This slatted configuration serves a dual purpose: it reduces the overall dead weight of the expansive top panel while allowing for the natural expansion and contraction of solid wood responding to ambient humidity changes. Each slat possesses smoothed, rounded edges, preventing sharp corners along the perimeter of the surface. The joints between the slats and the underlying structural supports are flush, creating a level plane despite the segmented construction.

The 31 cm height places the table significantly lower than standard dining or conventional coffee tables, establishing a low-slung proportion suited for modern upholstery setups and low-profile seating arrangements. This height clearance requires users to reach downward to the surface, keeping the visual field above the table unobstructed across the room. The 101 cm depth accommodates substantial surface items such as large books, trays, and decorative objects while maintaining reachable perimeters from both long sides of the furniture piece.

Teak material selection dictates the tactile and visual qualities of the table. The wood exhibits a medium-brown hue with straight to slightly interlocking grain patterns. Because teak contains high levels of natural rubber and natural oils, the timber resists moisture absorption and dry-cracking under normal indoor climate conditions. The surface finish is sanded smooth to the touch, retaining the matte texture of raw wood rather than employing a heavy gloss lacquer or polyurethane coating. This finish allows direct physical contact with the timber grain and facilitates straightforward maintenance using fine-grit sandpaper for minor surface scratches or blemishes.

The underframe construction consists of solid teak legs and lateral support beams integrated directly into the underside of the slatted top. The legs are positioned inward from the extreme corners of the 193×101 cm perimeter, anchoring the structure and distributing the 57.03 kg weight evenly across the flooring surface. The connection points between the legs and the tabletop frame utilize traditional woodworking joinery techniques, reinforced with internal fasteners to withstand lateral forces. The thickness of the wooden components prevents flexing or bowing across the 193 cm horizontal span, even when localized weight is applied to the center of the tabletop.

Transport and placement require two people due to the 57.03 kg mass and the unwieldy dimensions of a 193 cm by 101 cm panel. The table ships fully assembled, bypassing the need for mechanical fasteners or tool-based setup upon arrival. The flat base of each leg rests directly on the floor, requiring flat, level surfaces to prevent rocking across the wide stance. Cleaning involves wiping the slatted surface with a dry or damp cloth along the grain direction to remove dust accumulating between the gaps. Periodic application of teak oil can be performed to maintain the original moisture content and color saturation of the timber, though untreated teak will naturally weather to a silvery-gray patina over extended periods of exposure to ambient light and air.
