The reviews of this table were excellent and when I had wanted this table from pottery barn I was excited about it's price. Now I know why it was so cheap. It's very cheaply made. When the leaves on the table are up the top is very uneven, and the leaves are very weak. One of the leg pieces has a large gap between it and the table as well. This is a piece you would get from big lots. Now I wish I had splurged for pottery barns extra $ 300 table and got furniture quality. I don't see this lasting very long in my house.
