I purchased this coffee table because of the description and pictures of it on the website. well, it was everything I thought it would be. Easy to assemble. It took about 30 minutes. It's pretty long, about 48 inches or 4 feet. So make sure you measure your area you want to put it. It actually wound up being to long for the room I wanted to put it in. That was ok, though.....I moved it into my living room which needed a coffee table and was able to purchase something else. It is good quality and came in perfect condition. A beautiful deep espresso color,,,,
