DR CB1ST2 Concrete Side Table

Although I designed DR CB1ST2 Concrete Side Table  to complement my first concrete bench, it can be used as a standalone table or combined with any piece of interior or exterior furniture. The concrete is poured into the two interlaced sections in 2 phases to create this one piece design. The pedestal and table slab cannot be disassembled.

All concrete surfaces are sealed with 4 coats of high-performance sealer available in semi-gloss or matte finish. The sealer is a penetrable type and provides an excellent stain, acid, and scratch resistance of concrete surfaces.

The entire concrete cocktail table weights approximately 280 lbs and it comes with padding material attached to its bottom surface. With padding it is fairly easily movable on any smooth surface like hardwood or laminated floor - always use assistance when attempting to move this table.

Make sure the floor surface, along the path the table will be pushed, is free of small hard objects such as stones or even sand. They might get caught underneath the bottom surface or padding and damage your floor.

DO NOT TILT THIS SIDE TABLE - always keep it leveled in up-right position to prevent it from tipping over and to avoid serious injury or damage to table and its surroundings, especially when re-positioning. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SEAT ON SIDE TABLE'S OVERHANGING SURFACE to prevent possibility of tipping over / you can use its top-square section for seating.

If you are placing it on carpet, paved patio, wood decking, or other similar surfaces, we recommend help of at least two people capable of lifting over 280 lbs. Utility / hand truck or dolly capable of supporting such weight would be also helpful. Pushing or pulling concrete side table on uneven surfaces could result in damage to the table and floor surface itself.

DR CB1ST2 concrete side table will be delivered inside a crate.

We highly recommend help of at least two people when opening the crate and moving this concrete side table at your location.
