This table is amazing! The wood is sturdy, well constructed, and gives it a very unique look. The only 2 reasons I didn't give it a 5 start reading is that 1. It's being advertised as a coffee table and it's WAY too small for use as a coffee table and 2. The directions weren't very clear as to where the washers should go(I had put all the legs on it & they were wobbly.I realized that I needed to put the washers on the other side of the bolts. Once I did THAT, the legs were very sturdy).It would take 2 of these tables, side by side, to use for any normal size living room(which is what we are doing). It IS an interesting table). I pride myself on decorating my home with unique, quality furnishings, and, even though this particular item isn't the coffee table I had hoped, it still fits into the eclectic decor of our home. So, if you are going to use this as a coffee table, I suggest you purchase 2.
