This table is rustic, beautiful…and HEAVY! The table top is about 2” thick on the edge. All parts are solid wood. It’s fairly simple to assemble but follow the instructions and read all instructions completely before starting the assembly process, and lay the stringer between the pedestals BEFORE loosely bolting the pedestals to the table top. **There is 1 inaccuracy in the instructions. On the illustration of the stringer that goes under the table top, it shows the screw block flush. It is not. Flip the stringer over so that the center block is recessed when you insert the bolt.
Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase and looking forward to receiving the matching round table for my breakfast room!
