We wanted a small, thin set of couchside tables and this seemed to fit the bill and match well with the other furniture in our family room.  We have only had them about a week so I can't speak to long-term durability, but I do love the way they look.  Only complaint so far is that on a carpet they aren't SUPER steady.  I just probably wouldn't put a full drink on it if you have a small child or a dog running around.

Pros: Great value, easy to assemble, nice looking
Cons: Not super steady
