I love this table!!! It looks elegant and it is very sturdy. You will need 2 people to assemble this dining table. Glass top is very heavy (which is perfect!) It fits 4 wide chairs or 6 thin chairs. There are 43" between each pedestal and not 40" like I read. I used 4 low chairs 28" inches wide. They look stunning. The only reason I gave 4 stars is because you can see some black spots on the welding. I have a metallic silver teach pen, and was able to cover them, but for the price, you are getting a gorgeous table.  After the toach ups its perfect! I highly recommend this table.
