Sturdy coffee table with storage (Dalston E8)

Midcentury octagonal coffee table with closed sides. Constructed of wood-trimmed plywood and formica.

The coffee table is capacious: The tabletop, from flat side to flat side, is 26.5 inches across, and the table is 19.5 inches high. (So, about 67.5 cm wide by 49.5 cm high.)

It also is very sturdy (it makes a good stepstool for reaching the tops of windows and wardrobes) and very heavy, both on account of the quantity of thick plywood used in its construction.

Good condition except the door, which needs repair. A project for the repair café?

The door was two sides of the octagon, but the vertical seam has come undone, where it was joined by dowels (and someone tried to fix it with just glue; not a win). The joint needs cleaning up then new dowels, clamps, glue — or, one could finish the raw edges, add a hinge to the door's disconnected half, and make the table a two-door unit.
