Full Specifications

What Is a Console Table?

A console table is a narrow rectangular table designed to sit against a wall, typically in entryways, hallways, or behind sofas. Also known as a sofa table or entryway table, console tables are specifically proportioned to work in tight spaces -- usually 12-20 inches deep and 28-36 inches tall. Best for creating styled vignettes with lamps and decor while providing a surface for keys, mail, or decorative objects in high-traffic areas.

What You Get With the Tanmere Wooden Console Table

1. Solid Wood Construction -- Built from genuine wood sourced from India, not particle board or MDF, ensuring it handles daily use in busy entryways without wobbling or showing wear.
2. Space-Conscious 18-Inch Depth -- Fits comfortably in narrow hallways and entryways where deeper pieces would obstruct traffic flow, leaving at least 12 inches of clearance in standard 30-inch hallways.
3. Rich Reddish Brown Finish -- The walnut brown finish brings warmth to stark entryways and complements both neutral and bold wall colors, working especially well in homes with existing wood furniture.
4. Substantial 80-Pound Weight -- Solid construction and weight mean this table stays put once positioned, with no wobbling when you set down packages or lean against it.
5. Open Storage Design -- No doors or drawers to break, maximizing durability while providing surface area for lamps, keys, and decorative objects.

Where Does a Console Table Work Best?

This console table excels in narrow entryways where you need storage without blocking traffic, behind sofas in living rooms to define seating zones, or in hallways to break up long expanses of wall. Pair with table lamps from our accent tables collection and decorative trays to create a functional drop zone. For dining spaces, position against a wall in your dining room as a serving station during gatherings.
