This table is beautiful and functional. Assembly by the White Glove Delivery Team which I paid about $70 extra for was simple. It's very heavy and they handled it well. This table also comes with a partially black top which I almost regretted not ordering. However, the clear glass is gorgeous. On the website it is difficult to determine which table (clear or partly black) you are ordering. So I recommend calling customer service directly if you want this table. Closed, the table will seat 6 in reasonable comfort. Extended you can cram 10 if you have to. Recommend being very careful about scratching the tempered glass top. IT WILL SCRATCH with the slightest effort. I highly recommend this table. It is unique in many respects and it looks far more expensive than it is.
