After I placed my order I was unsure if this table would meet my expectations.  I was uncertain about the added column piece to reach counter height.  To my surprise, it is sturdy, assembles easy and the color is true.   The option to lower the height, if needed to 30 inches is a plus!  The only draw back is protecting the table top from stains, so we decided to cover it with a glass top to display the beautiful wood finish.  

Pros: Great value, easy to assemble, true to color and additional height option
Cons: Unable to find a padded table protector and had to order a glass top to protect wood finish
