This table looks good! Very easy to put together. However, it is definitely NOT wood of any kind. The top is covered in a material that looks like wood but has the texture of thick wallpaper. The first day I had this table I set a mug of tea down on it and it left a ring from the hot mug. So far cold drinks don't leave marks or rings, but anything even remotely hot leaves a ring! Now I have to keep the table covered all the time, and constantly remind people to use a coaster!
