We have a very small dining room; it's only 9X9 so this set was the perfect fit. We eat our meals around this table, do homework, pay bills, play games. We could fit 5-6 people around it if we needed to. It's very good looking, and sturdy...and it looks great with my Cafe Curtains:) The storage was a nice surprise to me, but is not very deep, and will not hold very much weight. All this with the low price and I'm a happy shopper!!
