I was surprised and impressed by this little table. It arrived very well packed, and assembly took no more than 20 minutes. I did think from the photo that the table top might be a  bit rough, and had been prepared to replace it (which would be very easy). In fact the table top is perfectly well finished, and the whole thing is excellent value for money. It is very light, so you need to put some heavy literature in the magazine rack to stabilise it !
