It was a little tricky to put together.  I diagonal cross bars didn't want to quite line up.  I had to loosen the leg bolts and then was able to force it in.  Also, it is hollow steel so it has a slightly delicate feeling to it and I was going for a more sturdy vibe.  That said, once put together, it is very stable and seems strong enough.  The top color seems just a little different than pictured... I know monitors and color and all that, but it looks different and the bottom of the top is black which I thought was a little strange.  It is wood though, so I could refinish it if it bothers me down the line.  We're using it for a coffee table and the size is perfect for our space.  Though I didn't love love love it, I do like it and the price couldn't be beat, so I kept it.... if I find something later I like better, this can be relocated for use as a bench which is nice.
