What a sturdy table at a great price!  The wood is beautifully grained and works so well in a contemporary setting.  There was one ding on an edge,but it is not significant enough to return the table for replacement.  I don't know if the damage was due to shipping or beforehand.  It did mar my appreciation somewhat, but I am happy overall. One note, I decided to place the table with the solid side out; looks great, and whatever you store in the opening is not visible.
