It’s pretty and looks like it is pictured. Assembly was a nightmare; the instructions were extremely difficult for us to follow. The top is screwed to a frame and when it arrived one of the screws was hanging loose and could not be tightened back up. Also there were two screw holes missing. Fortunately my husband was able to rig it so it would be stable. Also an issue with the black being chipped off in a couple places. There are also several strange looking spots that appear on both the black and the wood top when it’s wet. I plan on stripping and restraining the top darker anyway. I decided for the price, I got what I paid for.
