Great coffee table! I was looking at several similar modern-style tables, but my gut or my heart just kept coming back to this one. The color is a very rich dark brown (almost like black coffee). The shape is very eye-catching. With creativity, the triangular cubbyholes can be utilized for either decorative or functional purposes. The side storage areas (with doors) are handy and yet aesthetically pleasing. The table arrived when it was supposed to. The instructions were simple (I'm not really the handyman type), I just put a movie on and took my time, methodically laying out the hardware and going step-by step. ((The one caveat I would put forward it the eight hex-head screws that come into play when you form the two V's of the triangular areas - they include a simple L-shaped hex key; I would strongly recommend using an electric drill with an attachment. Otherwise, it will be tedious and trying.)) Overall, I'm really happy with it!
