Overall I like the table, I’m just not as in love as I had hoped I would be. First, it’s a lot darker than I had thought, almost a dark green grey in the light. It will work in the living room it was just darker than I would’ve liked. However, it is a quite large table which I do like. Also I don’t know why all these people say that it was easy assembly... the instructions say to attach all of the legs to the top and then attach the shelf but the shelf does not fit in between all legs if you do it this way. You have to attach two legs (not fully tightened) then start attaching the shelf. After we figured that out then assembly was easy, but just be ware of that. My table top also came with a scratch in it but it’s dark enough that I really don’t mind.
