This Table Is A Decent CompromiseAnd It Is A CompromiseFor Limited Space. It Goes From Credenza To 6' Dining Table With Little Effort. One Person Can Expand It All Alone, Although It'S A Bit Awkward. It'S A Veneer Construction That Scratches Very Easily, So Be Ready For That. Now, When Expanded Fully, There Is Just A Thin Middle Leg To Hold That Section Up, So Don'T Lean On The Middle Or Put Anything Really Heavy On It.My Table Actually Arrived With A Cracked Crossbeam But I Fixed It With A Bolt As I Really, Really Didn'T Want To Go Through The Hassle Of Shipping It Back. Be Sure To Inspect Yours Very Closely When You Get It!
