Got it on a super sale so I'm not going to complain a whole lot. But, as other reviews mention it's not finished. The top also has some cracks, but that could just be because the cut of a tree can be variable and it does add a bit of realism to it. However, it really should have been stained or finished even just a little bit...there are places where some filler wood glue was added and it's a much lighter color yet no effort was made to finish these areas (or any areas). I enjoy woodworking, so I plan to do it some day, but I wouldn't pay anything near full price for this table. It's also very light an made me a bit nervous to put anything on it when I had it on a hard floor. But, I've since moved it to a high pile carpeted area and I have lamp on it and it's much sturdier. Lastly, I really wish they would've left the edges as a "live edge" rather than sanding it down, but that's not how it is pictured/advertised. It would be nice to have the option, though.
