Really happy with this transitional coffee table! It fits perfectly with my u-shape sectional and feels really solid. I'm particular about my gold finishes and I'm satisfied with this.  It's not a gold metal, just painted gold but it's better than a lot of other painted gold finishes I've seen. I figured if I didn't like it, I'd just spray paint it black, but we've enjoyed this color for a few months now. We have 2 small children and, besides fingerprints, it holds up to their abuse. I'm starting to see some fine scratches in the glass but that's no fault of the piece. I don't love that you can see the screws that gold the pieces together, but I think it's fair at this price point. Overall, I highly recommend this table!
