Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
'The Salty Gull' fish & chip restaurant in Whitby needed to upgrade their dining area. Their existing lightweight bases were constantly being knocked, leading to wobbly tables and a few near-disasters with customers' food.
"We were after something that felt substantial and safe. The last thing you want is a customer complaining their table is unsteady. These Borrello bases are incredibly solid, and the cross leg design looks much more professional than what we had before."
Robert Green – Proprietor
The upgrade completely resolved their stability issues, leading to a noticeable increase in positive customer comments about the comfortable and professional-feeling dining space.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Unpack and check all components are present before you begin assembly.
- Assembly is straightforward, typically requiring just an Allen key (often supplied) and a screwdriver.
- When attaching your tabletop, ensure it's centred on the top plate for optimal balance.
- Once assembled, place the table in position and check for any wobble, adjusting if necessary.
Keeping It Going
- Wipe down regularly with a damp cloth and a mild detergent to keep the matt finish looking its best.
- Periodically check that the bolts connecting the base, pillar, and top plate remain tight.
- To protect your floors, consider adding felt pads to the bottom of the base feet.
- Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners which could damage the powder-coated finish.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the maximum size tabletop this base can support?
A: This base is ideal for tabletops up to 800mm x 800mm, either square or round, ensuring excellent stability.
Q: Is this table base suitable for outdoor use?
A: As it's made from cast iron and steel, this base is designed for indoor use to prevent rusting and maintain its finish.

A: The base weighs a substantial 25kg, which provides the stability needed for a busy commercial environment.
Q: Does the base come with screws to attach my own tabletop?
A: Fixings for assembling the base itself are included. However, as tabletop materials and thicknesses vary, screws for attaching the top are typically supplied with the tabletop or need to be sourced separately to ensure the correct length.

Q: How do I clean and maintain the matt black finish?
A: Simply wipe it down with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or scouring pads to protect the finish.
The Borrello Promise: Stability for a Professional Finish
In the hospitality industry, customer perception is everything, and it’s built on details. The Borrello ETB127 isn't just a component; it's an investment in that perception. A wobbly or unsteady table instantly communicates a lack of care and can undermine a customer's entire experience before their food even arrives. By choosing a heavy, commercial-grade cast iron base, you're eliminating that risk. This is about more than just holding up a piece of wood; it’s about providing a silent, reliable foundation of quality that builds trust. The long-term value is immense: fewer complaints, no need for constant adjustments or replacements, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your furniture is as professional and dependable as the service you strive to provide.

Ever wondered why a quality cast iron table base feels so much better? It's all down to physics. The sheer density and 25kg weight of this base create a very low centre of gravity. Think of it like the keel on a sailboat – it's the hidden weight below that stops the whole thing from tipping over in a stiff breeze. In your café or restaurant, the 'breeze' is a busy service with staff rushing past and customers getting up and down. A lighter, flimsy base will wobble and shift, but this heavy-duty table base stays firmly planted, keeping everything on the tabletop secure. It's a small detail that provides huge peace of mind and a much more premium feel for your customers.
