This looks amazing. I decided to do something different and instead used it as my living room dining table. It goes very well with the rest of my furniture. Took about 1 hour to put together after unboxing. Instructions where very easy to follow. I definitely recommend this. I always read the reviews before I buy any thing and the reviews here that where actually about the actual item and not complaints about shipping issues are spot on. The item looks great. Very happy with how it came out
