There is a reason why this table is so inexpensive. It is built of the cheapest coarsest particle board out there. It may look ok in the pictures, but it is very flimsy. It's also quite narrow for a coffee table. We are using it as a TV stand, and it will be ok for something static, but I can not recommend it for something actively used like a coffee table. A few bumps or resting feet on it and will start falling apart. It is seriously the cheapest piece of knock-together furniture I have ever bought.
