The pictures do this justice; sleek modern and stylish.  A few notes, the 42" height is tall even for me at 6'3" and you will need 29" plus stools to be comfortable.  Also, while this piece is heavy, the narrow base to table top design that makes it look so good means this table will always be less stable then a more traditional 4 leg design.  Over all, I love it in my house but I will likely not use it for primary dining and instead integrate it into my bar setup.
