This is a beautiful console table and exactly what I wanted - but it's not sturdy & unless it's fastened to a wall there's nothing that can be done about it.  The only reason I'm keeping it is because it's the perfect color & size.  I gave it 4 stars because it's such a beautiful piece (although not practical if you have small children.)  It's top heavy and has thin legs.  I would have given it 1 star if I rated it on sturdiness alone.  Hope this helps!
