Owners across Smoked Oak and Black praise the Falco’s compact, heavy build; several report wobble and some found the color off
Room×Lab read all 84 distinct written reviews among the 120 ratings on Article’s Falco page: 46 recent and 38 older. Article sells the Falco in Smoked Oak and Black and says reviews of similar finishes may appear together, so these reviews and ratings cover both finishes. Few owners describe long-term use. The reviews below were picked to show the problems owners describe (wobble, a top damaged on arrival, a loosening tabletop) plus two five-star accounts. They are not a vote: 108 of the 120 ratings are five stars.
Room×Lab rating: 7.8 out of 10 (limited confidence). Owners across both Falco finishes praise a heavy, solid-wood table that assembles easily and feels like good value. The caveats: several report wobble, some found the color yellower or darker than expected, and few describe how it holds up over time.
- Compact, low-profile fit: 13 favorable mentions; 6 concerns — Owners repeatedly liked the small-space footprint. Several otherwise positive reports still found the 17.5-inch table shorter or smaller than expected, so measure it against the intended chair, sofa or bed.
- Substantial feel with a wobble risk: 12 favorable mentions; 6 concerns — Most stability reports describe a heavy, sturdy table. The concerns are of different kinds, several from owners who still rated it highly: slight wobble, a crooked foot, or a connection that would not fully tighten. One owner’s replacement table wobbled like the first. That is a single report, but a serious one.
- Appealing grain, varying color: 6 favorable mentions; 3 concerns — Owners often praised the grain and overall wood appearance, while some found the color yellower or darker than expected. One two-star owner returned a table whose top arrived scratched and chipped and seemed easy to mark.
Before buying
Measure the 17.5-inch height against your chair, sofa or bed, because several owners found it shorter or smaller than expected. After assembly, check for wobble, loose connections, scratches and chips while you can still return it.
