Test result preview
The D-shaped table frame from PROVENEDI was particularly impressive in the product test thanks to its high load-bearing capacity and robust, matt powder-coated surface. Even heavy table tops were easily supported by the sturdy metal runners, making the frame particularly suitable for demanding DIY projects. The matt powder coating also proved to be scratch-resistant and durable, meaning that the frame not only has a high-quality appearance, but is also ideally suited for indoor and outdoor use. The slotted holes in the mounting plate enable simple and flexible attachment, while the integrated floor protection reliably protects sensitive floors from scratches. Manufactured in Europe and carefully finished, the frame also scores points for precision and quality. It is the ideal choice for projects where stability and a modern, understated look are required.

The first impression
Packaging and contents
Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be guaranteed. Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

The packaging of the D-shaped table frame impressed with its stability and well thought-out protective function. The metal runners were securely packed in a combination of sturdy cardboard and polystyrene padding, which provided effective protection against transport damage. Although polystyrene provides reliable protection for the product parts, a more environmentally friendly alternative would be desirable. The contents of the packaging were complete and the assembly of the table runners was simple and intuitive thanks to the clear design of the slotted holes. Even people with no previous manual skills can easily attach the runners to a table top and build a stable table.

The D-shaped table frame from PROVENEDI was tested in practice and impressed us with its stability and ease of use. The scope of delivery was complete and the two metal runners could be easily removed and mounted directly. The slotted holes in the mounting plate enabled flexible attachment, which made it easier to adapt to different table tops. In the load test, the table frame demonstrated very good stability. Even heavy table tops were supported effortlessly and the frame remained reliable even under very high loads. The frame also stood very securely on smooth surfaces such as parquet or tiles. The integrated floor protectors also prevented scratches and provided additional stability. Minimal movements were only noticeable with strong lateral pressure, but these were hardly noticeable. The frame was also impressive in terms of noise development. It remained quiet during use , without any annoying rattling noises, which emphasises the solid workmanship of the product. To summarise, the D-shaped table frame offers a stable, robust and practical solution for various table projects.

At the time of testing, the product had not been listed on Amazon for long enough. Therefore, the existing reviews do not sufficiently reflect the advantages and disadvantages of the product, so this point is neglected in the evaluation.
Prices of up to €165.99 are charged on the internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €59.99 . The D-shaped table frame from PROVENDI is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €89.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
