I think the table is beautiful. Nice sturdy table that isnt so big that it eats the room. Love the rustic finish. Only issue is the picture depicts the slate as being colored. I ordered this because the finish and the slate as depicted matches my fireplace mantel. What I received was a nice table with gray slate. I dont feel like taking it apart to return it, or take it to the post office. Nice table but I didnt get the match I was looking forward to.
