Updated Review My worries were confirmed. The laminate top is showing considerable wear, especially at the edges. The place where our 6 yo sits shows the most damage and that is from the need to clean the area more than where we eat. Water rings plague the table and it is beginning to stain. 

Original Review The table top requires coasters or water rings form quickly. It looks great, but is not going to hold up to the demands of our busy family where the kitchen table is heavily used.
