It was the perfect size and color for the corner of my daughter's college apartment. She likes that the sides fold down for everyday use and when she needs a space to do her homework, but loves that she can put the sides up for when her friends come over for game night. There was a little bit of tarnish/spotting on the table top when it was unpacked. But, she was able to get most of it buffed out. I bought a couple of dark wood chairs to go perfect with the color of the table.
