The first table I received had a split on the edge of one of the leaves. Wayfair's top notch customer service fixed this and sent a whole new table!  I donated my original to friend's son who does not care about the split (free table!).  This is perfect for my small condo.  I keep the leaves down up against a wall until I have company for dinner, then it is easy to pull out for use.  Always use coasters and placemats - the surface scratches very easily!
