This is an exceptionally beautiful table. It was larger than expected but works well in a small space because of its design. Fortunately I was home when the shipment arrived and the FedEx driver was able to bring the large box into the apartment. Be aware that you need two people to remove the table from the box and for moving it to the desired spot. I have the table on a rug and did not use the cheap looking plastic metal-looking corner covers. It's a gorgeous table.
