Table basse Panama Jack Cabo

We recently purchased this outdoor oval table and overall we really like the look of it. The wood design gives it a beautiful, natural appearance that works really well in an outdoor setting. It has a nice modern yet warm style that pairs well with different types of patio furniture. Once assembled, the table feels sturdy and well constructed, which was important for us since we wanted something that could hold up well outdoors. Assembly, however, was a bit more challenging than expected. The rope detailing around the frame is already installed, which looks great aesthetically, but it made the assembly process more difficult. We had to screw in several of the screws between the ropes, which required maneuvering tools in tight spaces. This made the process much more laborious and time-consuming than a typical furniture assembly. My main concern is with the tabletop surface. While the wood looks nice visually, it is not completely smooth. When I run my hand across the top, it feels a bit rough in some areas. Because we have a young child, this does make me slightly concerned about the potential for splinters when little hands are playing around the table. Overall, the table looks great and feels solid once assembled, but the roughness of the tabletop is something we’re still thinking about as we decide whether it’s the right long-term fit for our space.
