I received the table a day earlier than the estimated delivery time. It was securely packed and no damage or scratches. I put the item in my cart and a few days later the price dropped substantially so I jumped at it. The table itself was darker than what was represented in my computer monitor. The metal was black and wood was a mixture of a black and tan stain. The texture of the wood was rough just as I expected. I think the wheels are more decorative than functionally- I was not planning on rolling it around my house so that is fine with me. I am very happy with my purchase.
