Customer Reviews for International Concepts Spencer 48 in. Beige Standard Rectangle Wood Console Table with Drawers

This is the second International Concepts piece I've purchased from Home Depot and I have been impressed with the quality of both, especially for the price - solid wood for the price of high pressure laminate and cheaper than veneer. The drawers and top come already assembled so you pretty much just bolt on the legs and attach the shelf. The wood takes stain well and has properties similar to maple in terms of grain and hardness. I put two coats of stain and two coats of poly (used 3 coats of poly on the coffee table) and it came out looking like a store bought finished piece. Pro tip: put at least one coat of stain on before you assemble it. That way you don't get the light spots at the joints or runs in the stain trying to eliminate them. Using a finishing grade sandpaper between coats of stain and fine steel wool between coats of poly will get rid of any bubbles or rough spots from deeper grain. Just take your time and follow the directions on the product when finishing and you will end up with a beautiful and sturdy piece. I have had my 55" TV sitting on the with Xbox, cable box and record player on the bottom shelf. There has been no bowing and no stability issues. If you're on the fence, buy this. You won't be disappointed.

I wanted a wood console this size and paint it to match our great room decor. This was perfect in every way.

Turned out great. We stained it ourselves and was super easy.

The table is beautiful and very well built. Solid and sturdy.

Excellent furniture

I purchased this console table to use as a desk while working from home. It is perfect. I stained it black cherry. The wood absorbed the stain evenly. Love it.

The table is wonderfully made and once stained will be a perfect addition to our room.

Nice material, easy to put together, very sturdy

Table was easy to assemble. Finished with Minwax golden oak stain then 3 coats of Watco teak oil. Looks great.

Easy to assemble. Quality was better than expected.

This is the second one I’ve ordered. This fits any decorating style depending on how you finish it. The first one I did a grey stain finish and changed hardware…looks like Pottery Barn. This one I plan on lacquering, with funky gold hardware. Very sturdy, real wood, great price!!!!

Only light sanding required. Easy to assemble.Too bad the face frame was split between the drawers. It was an easy fix with some glue so I didn’t send it back.Good quality product overall.

I love my console table. Ordering online and picking it up in the store was extremely easy. The table was affordable and sleek in design.

And exceeded all my expectations. "Parawood" is still wood; it is not engineered. This is a very well made table and the wood is quite handsome.

Very nice quality product. Nice to be able to put our color on it

This table arrived in a well padded box with all the parts. It is extremely well made of beautiful wood and was very simple to put together. I applied a maple stain and sealer and it looks terrific. Perfect for our entry way. I would highly recommend this table, for the price and the quality workmanship you can't go wrong.

Great buy! I bought this to match up with a small drop leaf table I have in a small dinning area of my house. It is well made of real wood. I painted it black and added a nice table runner to it. Friends and family have commented how nice it is. I am very pleased with it overall.

Worked perfectly as a stand for my new TV! Easy to assemble, well made, nice features consist of two drawers and a shelf. Safe rounded corners (if you have little ones). Was packed well and arrived with all the pieces undamaged. Easy to apply a finishing stain. Looks great and matches my other

I was very happy with the quality of this table. It was packaged very well for delivery. It took the stain well and sanded nicely too. If you are expecting "real" wood you will be disappointed but it is a good product nonetheless.

Sturdy, finished well. Simple assembly.

Quality is excellent & assembly was simple. The only suggestion I would offer for potential purchasers that plan to stain the item would be this: the stain doesn’t penetrate the same as it would on wood you sand down yourself, so the shade is a bit lighter.

This ia a really solid and well built console. I was expecting to put the drawers together but it came pre-assembled....all I had to do was attach the legs and bottom shelf. It looks great and I'm very pleased with the purchase.

Initial ordered it a a few months back but came broken...returned it and thought maybe I could find something different but after looking for a few months this is the perfect item I needed so I reordered. Love that I could stain it the color I wanted to match my room perfectly. Easy to put together and sturdy when assembled.

I bought the table for a gift, they were very pleased with the product. Easy to assemble.

This console table is an exceptional value for the money, sturdy, well built and solid wood. I painted this with milk paint and distressed it, turned out beautifully and for less than $225 completed.

Quality of construction is great. We sanded and stained the table and it looks greeat in our living/dining area. The lower shelf holds my stereo unit just fine. Would highly recommend.
