Product Insights
The Oru Small Steel Side Table by Blomus is a powder-coated steel table that assembles in under five minutes with no tools, featuring an origami-folded design that serves as a sculptural art piece. Its 35 cm diameter and 47 cm height fit flush beside a bed without overhang, and it pairs with other ORU sizes to form a stepped or two-tier coffee table. The black and espresso finishes resist scratches and rust, while care requires only a damp cloth. However, it wobbles on thick or high-pile carpet despite stability on firm low-pile surfaces. At 349 CAD, its premium steel construction justifies the price compared to generic tables.

Deep Research
Combining two sizes into a coffee table
- Both sizes share a steel core — the Small table is built on a steel frame, and the Medium is specified as stainless steel — so the two feel materially linked when placed together, with the same cool touch and metal reflectivity regardless of the chosen finish.
- Pairing the Small (35 cm diameter, 47 cm height) with the Medium (50 cm diameter, 40 cm height) yields a two-tier coffee table — the narrower, taller Small table rises above the wider, lower Medium surface, creating a dynamic stepped layout that turns two side tables into a sculptural centerpiece without fixed joinery.
- Since the Medium table's 50 cm diameter defines the maximum floor space of the ensemble, the paired arrangement stays within a roughly 20-inch circle — making it feasible as a coffee-table alternative even in tight living rooms, while the raised Small table's 35 cm surface floats above without adding to the footprint.
- The Small table stands 47 cm tall while the Medium is just 40 cm, producing a 7-cm step that separates the surfaces vertically — you can rest a drink or a lamp on the higher plane while the lower, broader surface holds books or a tray, mimicking the tiered function of a conventional coffee table.
- Designer Robin Scholtysik conceived the ORU series as folded-metal forms that can be layered — the same 'folding paper' logic that shapes each table's radii and crease-like junctions extends to how the Small and Medium tables nest together, so the combination reads as a natural expansion of the origami metaphor rather than an afterthought.

Q&A
4 answered- Does the steel surface have a protective coating to prevent scratches and rust, and is it easy to clean?
- Yes, the steel surface has a protective coating: the black and burned metal finishes are powder-coated, while the stainless steel matt version has a brushed finish that resists corrosion. All finishes are easy to clean — simply wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly; avoid abrasive cleaners or steel wool [1][2][3].
- How difficult is assembly? Are special tools required, and what is the estimated assembly time?
- Assembly is very easy and requires no tools. The table consists of three elements (base and two tabletops) that fit together by hand; estimated assembly time is under 5 minutes [1][4].
- Is the table stable on carpeted floors, or does it come with leveling feet to prevent wobbling?
- The table has a flat steel base without adjustable leveling feet. It should be stable on firm, low-pile carpet, but may be less stable on thick or high-pile carpet. For wobble-free use on uneven surfaces, we recommend placing it on a hard, level floor.
- What are the actual color options? The listing shows 'Black, SMALL, Chocolate/Espresso' – is 'SMALL' a color name or a size variant?
- 'SMALL' is the size variant, not a color. The available size S (small) has a diameter of 35 cm and height 47 cm. The color options from the manufacturer are Black, Burned Metal (metallic finish), and Stainless Steel Matt [1][2][3]. The 'Chocolate/Espresso' listed does not match Blomus' official colors — it may be a retailer-specific label; please verify with the seller.
