Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

With a couple modifications, it's fantastic! What sets this side table apart from others is its built-in power cord, with three (3-pronged) plugs and two usb cords. BUT...Ashley Furniture missed a golden opportunity here to make this product MUCH better. There are two changes they should have made, imo, which would've made this a hands-down five star piece of functional furniture. 1- As it is, all cords plugged into the integral charger must exit ON TOP of the furniture. That creates a look similar to my 1st photo - top left. A messy surface. What they should have done is make holes into the inside of the unit, so you can place things like headset, laptop, or iPad charging cables through them. That way your electronics can stay out of sight, but charged. 2- That drawer could have been so nice - but as it is, it's pretty worthless. A cup holder is just silly, and the other recessed area for the remote is just a waste of space. We modified it by turning it upside down, removing the drawer rails, and cutting the sides of the drawer flush. Then we reattached the rails so it slides in nicely. It took a few attempts to get the rails placed perfectly, but at least now we have a functional drawer to hold an iPad - AND IT CAN BE CHARGED IN THE DRAWER SINCE WE ALSO BORED A HOLE IN THE BACK OF THE DRAWER). So, now we have an end table with a drawer that has a power cord running into the back of it. We have a top shelf for our son's headsets and a bottom shelf where his controllers are stored - on their charger that is plugged into the integral charger and run through a hole we bored into the back of the cabinet. Really, I'd never used a bore on a drill before, but I did it by myself and it was easy. It's just the furniture should have come with the holes already drilled. You don't have to use them if you don't want and nobody would have known they were there. Golden opportunity missed by the manufacturer. Anyway, I really love our charging table now!
