I wanted a pretty and compact games/puzzle table that could be expanded to provide overflow dining, and it fits my purposes well.  It was easy to assemble and seems sturdy.  

The buttercream finish is a nice pale yellow/cream colour that reads more like a stain than a paint.  I found that the wirebrush finish (small grooves) was a bit too rough on the tabletop so I buffed it with a dry knitted dishcloth and that was enough to smooth the edges a little without damaging the finish.  The little grooves are fine with me, but if you want a perfectly smooth tabletop, this isn't the one.
