This table is very easy to assemble. It exceeded my expectations; ideal farm table look at a great price point. I sprayed two layers of polyurethane to protect the wood and the metal legs. I also purchased from coversandall an exact tabletop fit cover to protect it from the elements. I wanted to look at the beautiful shape of the legs while it is covered but still protect the wood top. I’m very pleased with my purchase!!  Wayfair is the best!!!
