I'm looking for a table to use for kneading bread dough. How is the wooden top -- good quality? and the height?

The height is good, as far as the top goes it not a maple top and not sure what the wood is but if only for kneading dough it could work, it has a catch ring all around the board about a half inch in so it could be used for carving. It's solid once assembled nut if it doesn't work out it is from Amazon so it can be packed up and sent back in 30 days at no cost to you.

The wooden top is butcher block and real nice. I use it for a potting bench out on my deck and the height is perfect for me. I love it!!

I would say it would be perfect for groceries and light cooking. I am very pleased with this island, it is better quality than what I expected and we got a lot of compliments on it. It is kind of challenging to assemble I would recommend two people.

Hi we use this table only for camping. It is very sturdy and the height is adjustable. The only complaint would be the faucet is really bad quality. But overall for the price and use you will give it it is great!!

I bought one about 2 weeks ago and am very pleased with it. It does a nice job of toasting both sides of the bread. I only wish it was all brushed stainless steel; the top is shiny chrome.

I use a Hamilton Beach bread maker, it will even do cakes and jam. My bread rises well and is very tasty.

You can knead bread on this certainly or make pizza on it. But if you are making pizza on it and kneading pizza dough on it it will be getting covered with flour and bits of dough will stick to it and you do not want that. It needs to be clean and smooth and oiled.

This is multi-functional table features a heavy gauge metal mesh top. It's sturdy construction and neutral powder coated finish makes it a great addition to your indoor or outdoor living space. So what is your Opinion.

Sorry, that table is in a home I am not currently living in during the summer. I do like that table. It is very stable and fairly easy to assemble.

Most definitely vertical. I use it all the time, and have no problem with the kneading or the final loaves. You will have better bread if you use the 1 1/2 pound recipes. Good luck!!

Dear James. I am not an expert in recognizing wood, but I can assure you it is not solid wood but it looks good for me. It is easy to clean and it does not look like a cheap piece of furniture. I clean the table with windex vinegar and it looks great. Once in a while I use wood polish. It is a nice looking table, if you want something simple. It is hard to guess what your expectations are, but I was not disappointed.

I love my whisk. I don't know how I baked without it. I doubt Sour Dough will harm the stainless steel... Mine seems pretty tough, showing no wear after heavy use. As for size... I have only used the 14" whisk, but I am a 6'1" bread baker. The 11" whisk may work better if you are more petite.

I have baked yeast bread in a toaster over some years ago and it worked just great. I have been looking for a toaster oven with enough capacity for the bread for several years and this is the one that is a good size. A .5 cu inch won't do.

Well that I can't answer. I use mine for making breads and such. But seen as it is marble it should be ok for what you want it for.

I really wish I knew. I'm looking for a small square kitchen table with the same kind of top, but NOT the counter-height size that everyone seems to be selling. So, I join you, Jeff B., in looking for an answer.

Solid wood and I'm still happily using it. I especially like the pie crust sizes marked on it.

I recently bought this table. It is a beautiful piece of furniture. I am using it only as a piece of art in my office reception room. I don't do manual drafting anymore but I can tell you that this table would not be very functional for every day drafting. The table top is glass. If you are drafting with pencil, the hard glass surface will not work properly. Also the adjustable table top mechanisms is not smooth to operate. You can adjust it but the side guides are not aligned enough to make it a smooth swivel. When assembling the table I did not have all the correct parts hardware to finish it. I had to go the the hardware store to get what I needed. That is one of the main complaints from other buyers in the reviews. For actual manual drafting it would be better to have a taller table. This one is a low table top. Good luck! .........Sergio, Arte Architecture
