We originally planned to use this end table next to a chair in our guest room. I temporarily put it in our den and fell in love with it at the end of our couch. Our room is decorated in a nautical theme, this is the perfect table to compliment this style. This arrived very well packaged with no issues. The instructions were very easy to understand and went together perfectly. The quality is so much more than I expected, and very well made. Included with the hardware was a small package labeled spare parts, totally unexpected as I have never seen this. All the hardware was included and well labeled. I highly recommend this end table. We might just need to order another!
