I would give this five stars if it had been easier to put together. The bottom consists of TEN wooden dowels that have not been pre-screwed (there weren't already holes in them for the screws to go in). I got blisters and hand cramps trying to get it together. I've put together my share of furniture, but this was the hardest by far. 

That said, the directions were really clear and easy to follow. And, once the piece was put together, it is really solid and nice. We have a tall table in our kitchen, so we use it as every day dining for our two year old. It works really well and has held up to all his use. It is solid wood. The chairs are solid enough that he can't tip them backwards when he scoots and leans against them.  It's a great buy for the price and I definitely recommend it.
