This table stinks. Literally, it smells HORRIBLE, like petroleum/gas. The smell has persisted for weeks and although it looks fine and was not too bad to put together (though not easy), I absolutely would not have bought it if I'd realized that it would smell so freaking bad. I was beside myself trying to figure out what was wrong in our rec room before we finally realized that it was the table. We've wiped it down, burned countless scented candles, opened the window and run a fan for hours (in mid-winter, in Canada), and it just keeps persisting. We bought the "black" colour, I don't know if that is a factor, but in no way, at all, would I recommend buying this product. It's been almost two months of stinking table and I am out of candles.
