I had a dream about  a similar looking  table and couldn't believe it when  I found one almost exactly like my dream....needed a small table to sit under a still life painting in the dining room and this looks great....also, it is very  sturdy, just the right size  and was easy for my son-in-law to put together...think I possibly could have put it together myself ....only the table top, four legs and the shelf....If you are looking for a narrow small occasional table, this is the perfect one....
