I received the smallest length and it works! At first I thought it’d be too small when I pulled each piece out of the box, but with chairs it’ll be the perfect size for my dining nook. The table top is smooth with more distressed elements on the middle slat. The base is a smooth black wood material. It took about 2 hrs to assemble with one person with a lot of hex key turning. The final product looks like the displayed images. I payed on top of it and it is sturdy.   Enjoy!
