Arrived one week early.  The lift top portion was somewhat difficult to build.  We chose the taupe color and are pleased with the way it looks in the room.  Overall, it’s pretty plain.  The most annoying part was there was a large sticker placed right in the middle of the front of the table.  The sticker adhesive would not come off and I was afraid it would ruin the finish or peel the laminate.  It did come off after using rubbing alcohol, which was probably not recommended.
