Product Insights

The Metal And Polyethylene Folding Accent Table offers a portable, wobble-free folding design with a waterproof, UV-resistant polyethylene top and polished chrome frame that coordinates with chrome-accented furniture. Its 17-inch height suits low sofas and platform beds, but the chromed frame risks rust in rain or humidity, some units arrive with a backward-slanting top, and return costs may deter defect resolution.

Verified claims

Height profile
17 inches (43 cm) — 2 cm shorter than the standard 18-inch side table and the IKEA LACK
Seating ergonomics
The 17-inch height sits just below low-slung sofa armrests and nearly flush with low platform bed mattress tops, an ergonomic height for reaching drinks and books beside deep lounge seating.
Stability
The chromed metal frame keeps the table steady and wobble-free when unfolded, while the lightweight polyethylene top lets one person fold and stow it without strain.
Frame finish
Polished chrome frame coordinates with chrome-accented furniture.
Outdoor use
The polyethylene top is UV-resistant and waterproof, but the chromed metal frame may rust if exposed to rain or high humidity, so the table is best kept indoors or on a covered, dry patio or balcony.
Material quality
Polyethylene top resists scuffs, UV, and water; chromed frame is stable and glossy.
Levelness
One buyer reports the table slants backward and is not level, making the surface uneven for drinks and décor.
Portability
The lightweight polyethylene top lets one person fold and stow the table without strain, and one buyer notes it pairs well with PLIA folding chairs.
Surface wear resistance
The matte polyethylene surface hides fingerprints and everyday scuffs, and because the color runs through the slab, light scratches blend in on the Off White top; on Burnt Orange or Grey they may appear as fine lighter lines only under direct light.
Cleaning and handling
Clean with damp cloth and mild soap; avoid sharp objects; lightweight for one-hand fold.
Thermal comfort
Surface feels warm at room temperature.
Polyethylene top
The polyethylene top is waterproof, UV-resistant, stain-resistant, and stays warm at room temperature.
Return cost
One buyer reports that returning the defective table was not worth it due to return shipping costs.
Rugged top finish
The top's rugged finish withstands the bumps and scrapes of being folded and stored in closets or under beds, so the table keeps a clean look with frequent handling.
Moisture-resistant top vs MDF
Unlike most folding accent tables under $100 CAD with MDF or engineered wood tops that can swell from moisture, this table's solid polyethylene top is inherently water-resistant and eliminates that water-damage risk.
Frame care
After any damp cleaning, wipe the chromed metal frame dry immediately; water sitting on chrome can corrode the plating. Bright chrome is best maintained with periodic paste wax rather than abrasive cleaners or scrubbers, which can strip the protective oxide film and accelerate rust.
Heat tolerance
Warm drinks and plates are safe, but the polyethylene top begins to soften near 80°C (176°F), so a pan straight off the stove or a dish from the microwave can leave a soft dent; this is a drinks-and-lamp table, not a trivet for hot cookware.
Sustained heavy loads
The polyethylene top can creep under a persistent heavy load, so a heavy lamp base or a stack of books left in one spot for months can settle into a permanent shallow depression; it rewards distributed, lighter objects over one heavy anchor parked long-term.
Hard-object scratch resistance
The polyethylene top is soft for a furniture plastic and scratches by cutting, so dragging keys or a hard-edged box across it can leave a visible groove no wipe removes; it is better suited to lamps, cups, and books than as a staging surface for hard objects.
Finish durability
The top's color is the color of the polyethylene itself, not an applied lacquer or print layer, so it ages only by scratching and will not chip, flake, or rub through the way a painted or stained surface can.
Spill resistance
Red wine, citrus, vinegar, and a spritz of household cleaner won't etch or cloud the polyethylene top, because polyethylene is chemically inert and tolerates coaster-free everyday spills.
Folded storage
The table folds up for storage and tucks away between uses, but the listing does not publish the exact folded thickness, so how slimly it packs down is unspecified.

Uses

Lightweight living room side table beside the sofa

One customer reports using this table as a living room side table, where its height sits comfortably next to the sofa and its light weight makes it easy to lift and reposition around the room. Note that at least one unit reportedly arrived with a slanted, back-leaning top, so it may not be steady enough for activities needing a level surface like dining, writing, or holding drinks — worth inspecting on arrival.[1]

Pairing with folding chairs for a matching furniture set

Use this accent table alongside folding chairs when you want a coordinated folding furniture set, such as for extra seating and a surface for guests. One customer review reported that its sleek design pairs aesthetically with Italian PLIA folding chairs, and reviews more broadly describe it pairing well with folding chairs.[1]

A fold-up side table you can tuck away between uses

This metal and polyethylene accent table works as a side table when you need a surface, then folds flat for easy storage when you don't. The merchant describes it as easy to fold up and put away, making it a space-saving pick for smaller rooms or occasional use. In product images it is shown folded, with the square top standing vertically and the tubular frame collapsed behind it.[1,2]

A budget-friendly accent table for a first apartment

Reviewers describe using this folding accent table as an affordable way to furnish a first apartment on a tight budget, noting it delivers style and quality without a high price tag. Keep in mind this reflects customer review impressions rather than a guaranteed result.[1]

A decorative accent table that fits your decor

Use this folding accent table as a stylish accent piece in different rooms around your home. The merchant describes it as adapting to any space while adding practical flair, and reviewers report that its eye-catching, modern look complements a variety of decors and pairs well with folding chairs. When not in use, it folds up for easy storage.[1]

Metal And Polyethylene Folding Accent Table: Choose this if you want a small, lightweight folding side table (17 inches high with a 15.75 by 13.75 inch top) that is easy to fold up, put away, and rearrange, with a chromed metal frame and a polyethylene top in Grey, Off White, Burnt Orange, or Transparent. Reviewers report it suits living-room use and pairs well with folding chairs, but at least one buyer received a unit with a slanted, back-leaning top that made it unsteady, so inspect it on arrival if you need a reliably level surface for dining, writing, or drinks.[1]Arch Travertine-Finish Concrete Side Table: Choose this if you want a durable, statement-making accent table for a living room or a high-traffic lobby or reception area: it is a commercial-grade piece made of engineered cementitious composite (ECC) concrete with a seamless, easy-to-clean matte finish in a travertine-like Ivory/Cream Beige that resists heat, stains, and scratches, and it has a high weight capacity so it can even be sat on. Its prism shape with an arch cutout measures 12 inches wide, 12 inches deep, and 17.75 inches high, weighing 24.25 pounds. Note that as an online-only item it ships directly from the supplier, so it arrives separately from regular Simons orders and may come in different packaging.[3]Acacia Wood Side Table: Choose this if you want a compact, rustic accent table in solid acacia wood with a brushed natural finish, sized at about 19.75 inches (50.25 cm) in width, depth, and height. It arrives with no assembly required, and its clean, simple design is characterized by Simons as versatile enough to complement any decor. Be aware that the natural wood shows visible grain and tone variation between planks, including lighter patches, so each piece may look slightly different.[4,5,6]

Looks great but not level

★★★★★Ginette Y.

I love the look of this table but it’s not level, it slants to ward the back. I would have returned it but I paid for shipping and would also have to pay for return shipping so it’s not worth it for me.
