Whittenham Walnut Sofa Table

This table stands 32 inches tall, which is an ideal height for most standard-sized sofas. To achieve a professional, balanced look, we recommend that a sofa table be level with or slightly lower than the back of your sofa. This ensures that the table provides a convenient surface for lamps or drinks without obstructing the sightline of your living area.

To preserve the beauty of the laminate finish, we recommend regular dusting with a soft, dry cloth. For minor spills, a slightly damp cloth followed immediately by a dry one is sufficient. Our material care guidelines suggest avoiding harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive pads, which can dull the finish and impact the long-term durability of the laminate surface.

This piece is specifically designed to maximize functionality in space-constrained environments. With a depth of only 14 inches, it is considered a "slim" or "narrow" profile table. It provides a generous 52-inch surface for decor and an open bottom shelf for storage without encroaching on the floor space of a narrow hallway or a compact urban living room.

This table is designed for straightforward customer assembly and includes all necessary instructions. The A-frame construction and straight-leg style provide a stable, intuitive assembly process. Based on our product specifications, all components are engineered for a precise fit, ensuring that the finished piece is sturdy and level once completed.

Yes, this table is constructed from warp-resistant MDF and high-quality laminate, making it an excellent choice for busy households. Unlike solid wood, which can expand or contract with changes in humidity, this engineered material is designed for exceptional stability and longevity. The durable laminate finish also offers a resilient surface that is easier to clean and more resistant to daily wear than many traditional wood veneers.

These terms are often used interchangeably, but the distinction usually lies in placement. When placed behind a floating couch to anchor it in an open-concept room, it is referred to as a sofa table. However, because this piece features a slim 14-inch depth and a decorative A-frame design, it also functions perfectly as a console table in an entryway or hallway.

The open slatted shelf offers a rustic, airy feel that is perfect for both storage and display. To maintain an organized look, our stylists suggest using decorative baskets for smaller items or showcasing larger coffee table books and collectibles. This design allows for airflow and visibility, keeping your living space feeling open rather than cluttered.
