This is a honey of a table. The quality is superb--even better than I expected. It was expertly packaged so there was no trace of a scratch anywhere. Of course it was in pieces, but the directions were clear and it was simple to assemble; probably took me 1/2 hour max, and that length of time was only because putting things together does NOT come naturally to me. But I did it and had no trouble whatsoever. And now that the table is assembled and in the place where I intended it to be, it looks every bit as lovely as I'd hoped. All that, and shipping was free, it arrived in two days, and Wayfair is always a pleasure to order from. I am one happy customer right now!
