We have been using this table since mid-August of last year. It is kept covered when not in use. The boards making up the top are warping, and today a strip fell down from underneath the table onto the ground. It was extremely warped and had nails sticking out of it, which made it easy to find when I put a nail through my bare foot when sitting down at the table. NOT happy. Pretty table but expensive and didn’t last a year. Look elsewhere.
