This set is well worth the cost. I love that it's solid wood; veneers always eventually peel off. It was easy to set up; the directions are easy to follow. I was especially happy that the black color shade was a perfect match with the Java colored legs of my living room furniture. Wayfair, once again, showed it excellence in service. There were a few minor surface issues I had and they immediately responded to them with a call from one of their staff, who has continued to follow up letting me know when the items I needed would be delivered. Customer service is the number one reason I choose a business for my needs and Wayfair has continued to be one I return to often.
