I absolutely love this end table. I use it as an accent table in a spare bedroom. I bought the grey one first and loved it, but decided to put it in my laundry room, so I bought the black one for the bedroom. The shelves have a good bit of space between them for home decor items or other items. It smells and feels like solid wood, which is a plus. Its also super easy to assemble. It only took a few minutes. I highly recommend it.
