The Hoobro Narrow End Table is designed to serve as a compact bridge for small gaps in a living room or bedroom. The build features a synthetic melamine laminate over engineered wood, supported by a matte-black steel frame. While specifications indicate a load capacity of 44 lbs, keeping the weight closer to 30 lbs is advisable to maintain the long-term shape of the overhanging section. Tests show the top surface measures just under 12 inches deep, making it helpful for high-traffic areas with limited clearance.
Practical safety features include an integrated power strip with two AC outlets and two USB ports, providing a centralized location for charging devices. The charging hub is rated for 120V/12A, though users should note the USB ports provide standard power levels rather than modern fast-charging speeds. A built-in flip compartment is included, which helps hide power bricks and excess cords from view, though the melamine edges require careful handling to avoid chipping during vacuuming or cleaning.
- Flip-top hinge provides access to a hidden storage zone for cable management.
- Adjustable feet allow for leveling the unit on uneven surfaces like rug edges.
- Integrated surge protection adds a layer of safety for connected electronics.
To ensure the lid sits flush with the frame, it is helpful to finger-tighten the hinge screws during assembly before applying final pressure with a tool.
For those interested in a design that maximizes floor space by sliding under a couch, the C-shaped charging table offers a different structural profile.
This unit is a helpful addition for those exploring options within charging side tables to reduce living room cord clutter.
