Can the table be taken apart after it is put together, or is there some sort of locking mechanism preventing disassembly?

Yes. Get someone's help to turn it upside down (onto a blanket so you dont scratch it) Then gently tap the top off. You can also release the shelf in the same way. We recently added a second shelf, bought separately. Be sure to chose one with correct pipe/sleeve diameter. This one is 1.5" NOT 1". Also measure shelf size correctly, there are so many out there.

The table easily assembles and can be taken apart as easily as it was assembled. No locking features.

There is NO locking mechanism, only flimsy plastic sleeves, friction and gravity. I highly recommend not purchasing this table as it was mostly a piece of junk. It came apart very easily when I was putting it back in the box for return.

No you can not. You have to push the table away. I have also noted that the locks lock on their own and sometimes it's a bit difficult to move.

It is definitely possible to be left off. I would not recommend doing this though. That rear panel is the main stabilizer for the whole table. It would not be very stable or safe to put anything on.

I would not suggest taking it apart. There is no threading to hold the screws in place, in fact there are only small depressions in the plastic to show where the screws go. The assembly is okay, but you need some muscle since there are no starting points for the screws. Any disassemble after the first installation would only weaken these points and cause loose fittings and probably a hazard. Unsure of box dimensions, no longer have it. I think it can be found in the description area for shipping size.

Yes you can disassemble it. It's the reverse process for putting it together, and it's easy to do

Judy, this is a great table, but unfortunately, the legs are fixed. Clifford is correct that they can be removed easily, but not as simply as folding them in.

Mine came assembled and I don't see a way (or at least an easy way) to disassemble it.

So apologetic for the delay in answering. Yes, it can be disassembled and the shelves easily moved around. We have been totally satisfied with this purchase. We are happy to answer any other questions. Selma

Hi Sue, the unit is easy to assemble - and disassemble. Just remove the screws holding the section you want to take apart, and keep the instruction page handy. I know there is nothing written, but the page is easy to follow. Be careful to line the parts back up correctly, and realize, the more you do this, the larger the screw holes can become, so be careful. Moving it in sections should be easy.

After assembling it from its box myself, I just keep using. It's working well.Sorry that I've never disassembled the unit.The answer by "R. Lavender" before this seems very practical--to separate the parts back as when they arrived in the box.

Hello, I do not have instructions on how to take this chair apart. I do not recommend that you do so as it holds a risk of damaging the item. Thank you!

I don't believe it could be easily taken completely apart. It weighs 31 pounds, and is not really a portable table. If you are pretty handy with tools, I suppose you could disassemble it for travel, but I think it could become tiresome. When I first received it, I had to assemble it, but I wouldn't want to do that every time I wanted to move it. BUT I highly recommend this table. I have used mine for several years and it is quite sturdy and well-made. Hope I answered your question.

no once it is assembled it requires disassembly for folding. I don't recommend doing that either.

I don't think so, but I won't be able to check until tomorrow. The whole top can be removed (frame & glass together). I do like my little table though.

Not in my opinion. It has been up since we assembled it. I suppose you could take it apart, but it is not "collapsible".

Not easily, although it arrives disassembled so I guess you could take it apart again. It's small so I was able to put it all in a closet when not in use

You can probably take it apart again, there are a few screws involved but most of the parts just snapped together. Just keep the instructions!
