The table had a good, basic Arts & Crafts design. I had to put it together and apply the finish. I had some difficulty attaching the top with the screws provided. I had to drill holes and use my own screws so they wouldn't come through the top.

The wood is the strangest I have dealt with and I have finished and refinished wood pieces for over 45 years. The wood did not appear to be oak. It soaked up the stain without sealing even after 4 coats of stain. It did the same thing to the polyurethane finish I applied (3 coats). I would not recommend the piece to anyone.
