It's a very nice sturdy, heavy piece of furniture. It does have sharp corners which I have run into a couple times already. It was a pain to put together, recommend having 2 people assemble the legs. I chose this table for the lift top feature but wish it was quieter as you lift and push back down. The sound it makes is startling in the beginning and I'm not sure if I will get used to it. On the other hand, The storage underneath is pretty convenient for stuff you want to hide in the living room.
