It looks nice in my family room although the quality isn't as good in person. It almost looks like it's used. The lift mechanism could be better, it's a little wobbly and you have to use both hands on either side to lift but the whole table will move if you're standing on the wrong side. The build process was easy but took long and the final step (attaching the lift mechanism) was so hard to do alone so I'd recommend having a second person (the instructions also say to have a second person. Overall I like the way it looks and love that I can turn it into a desk/table for movie nights :)
