Like others have said, it is not true butcher block but it is still great quality.  The table was well packaged for shipping, the only issue was a bent bar but it was very easy to bend back into place.  Putting the table together took some time and strength because some of the pre-drilled holes didn't match up 100%.  Over all, the table is great and I would purchase it again.

Pros: great value
Cons: possible difficult assembly
