The table is average to good in quality for a decent price. My table arrived with a messed up white paint job on the lower shelf - a dark horizontal strip across the length. But, the customer service at Wayfair is excellent, so they VERY quickly and entirely online and by email shipped me out an entirely new product, even though I only asked for the shelf piece. The top of the shelf is definitely not solid wood, which I think affects the look of the table. Bottom line: It fits my space well (narrow hall/entry way) and the price was right. But, it was clearly made in China and attention to detail is not the best. Also, I should mention that the white color is not a bright white, but rather an antiqued white.
