 I love this table--A TERRIFIC VALUE-AND FREE SHIPPING!!! May 2, 2005
25 out of 25 found this review helpful
15 years ago I had paid around $45 for a "well-used" hospital-grade table for a sick room. It was almost identical to this model, except with an older-style crank handle. I have "loaned it out" and it is still in daily use--even with young ones sometimes "swinging" on it.
I love this over-bed table, and WHAT A TERRIFIC VALUE ON SALE! I just bought a second one on a recent Amazon sale, plus $20 Coupon for future purchases. (First one purchased 3/05)
The up and down motion is easy, yet secure. I have used it in a sick room, but it also can be pressed into service as an extra "pull-up table" for various projects. Being able to change the height (even standing height!) and roll it around (it has secure brakes) makes it useful for many situations around the house.
Believe me, it is easy to assemble, AFTER correctly identifying the screws and bolts.
CAUTION: The "NUMBERS" in the "PARTS LIST" & "ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS" do not correspond with the "NUMBERS" assigned to the screws and bolts on the "PARTS CARD".
TOOLS REQUIRED: SCREWDRIVER AND PLIERS, OR WRENCH.
-------------------
Overbed Table
THE 8x10 "PARTS LIST" AND "ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS" WITH DIAGRAM CONTAINS "ONE SET OF NUMBERS."
A SMALL "PARTS CARD" (CONTAINING THE SCREWS, NUTS & BOLTS, AND THEIR PICTURES) ALONG WITH "A DIFFERENT SET OF NUMBERS." Assigning letters instead of numbers to the screws and bolts would have been less confusing.

2. Column Assembly
3. Trip Lever
[PARTS CARD: # 10 BROWN PLASTIC LEVER]
4. 1/4-20 Bolt & Nut (1 each)
[PARTS CARD: NO # ASSIGNED BUT IT'S THE SINGLE, LONGEST SILVER BOLT; AND #9 HEXAGONAL NUT]

6. 1/4-12 BOLT (2)

[I.E., #2 - PAIR OF SHORT, FAT SILVER BOLTS, PLUS #2 ROUND WASHERS, PARTS CARD.]
(See fig. 6) & fasten.
3. Install brown plastic trip lever [#10, PARTS CARD] (See Fig. 3) as shown, rounded side facing tabletop. be sure trip lever sits on top of rod inside column.
[FOR EASE, TIP TABLETOP ON ITS SIDE.]
Align hole in BROWN PLASTIC TRIP LEVER [AGAIN, #10"] (Fig. 3) with hole in top bracket (See Fig. 5) and insert bolt & nut [SINGLE LONG BOLT, NO # ASSIGNED, FROM PARTS CARD] (See Fig. 4) to fasten the trip lever & top bracket.

5. INSTALL CASTERS (See Fig. 8, 9) AS SHOWN.

2. To lower, squeeze trip lever (See Fig. 3) up towards top and push down at column to desired height. Do not put pressure on tabletop end that is opposite the column, column assembly will lock upon release of trip lever.
Caution: spring-loaded column

(Update to my review from May 2005: QUALITY, STRONG, FUNCTIONAL
I received my DuroMed Over-The-Bed Table this week from a recent Friday Sale, and I am very pleased. It took me about 15 min. to assemble with a screwdriver and pliers. The numbers on the Parts List was somewhat confusing. Also, the last instruction has an omission...."Install casters (8,9) as shown and replace BLACK SHIPPING SCREW with chrome screw (14).
