Prouve EM Table

I bought this really good reproduction of the original Prouve EM Table because I didn't want to spend $7000 on the original. This one was $850 and gives the same effect. However, the scale of this reproduction is NOT at all the same as the original Prouve which is wider and longer and the legs are at different angles and afford more seating. Seating is tight with 6 because of how the legs are splayed but on the original (which I bought for a client from DWR) there's much more space for seating in between the legs - they get in the way as they are. So you cannot use larger chairs with this table, you'll need smaller scale chairs. I used Eames Peg chairs with mine. Otherwise, the wood top is exceptionally high quality (solid wood) and the legs are nice. However, when I ordered this table, they had a photo of the REAL EM Table not this reproduction and it had a selection for metal legs (as on the original) which is what I wanted. I ordered the black metal legs. However, they shipped me the wood legs that are the same color as the light oak top I ordered. I told Inmod about this and they said that was an error on their part and that they did not actually offer metal legs, just black wood or matching wood legs. This did not make me happy. So they credited me $50 back and send me a 2nd pair of legs (black) to simulate the metal legs that I had actually ordered. Although I appreciate this, and this is really good customer service, they should never have had the wrong table up there to begin with. Beyond that, great table. It's a little lower than I expected but you get used to it.

Table is as I ordered....it's sturdy and good-looking. However, it took 4 months to arrive and then it was dumped in my garage on a pallet with other the other pieces I ordered. I'm single and 69...there was NO way I could handle two of the pieces so I had to call in help the next day. Do you buyers a favor and have your furniture delivered by people who can unbox and set it up IN THE HOUSE like the others I ordered from. FedEx can NOT come in the house. So, happy with furniture but very unhappy with delivery arrangements.

Two things I love about this table: 1. attractive design especially the shape of the legs 2. spacious all around - it seats everyone in the family with enough space for comfort

As a designer, I like the mixture of styles of scandinavian style with modernist appeal, a well-designed table, I'm impressed overall with the tables look and make.

Purchased this table with a set of the prouve chairs, best design decision i've made to date! It looks great in my dining room, thank you!
