This is just the first item of furniture for my new living area, so I figured that I would design everything around it.

I really, really like the simply solid-design of my glass and brass-colored metal coffee table.  It was absolutely the easiest to assemble, though I would advise to be very careful in the final placement of setting the glass top. So if you are a tiny person, it might be better to get an extra hand doing so, esp. since the thick glass top is heavier than the rest of the entire table -- reflecting the very solid integrity of the glass!

Overall, I would definitely endorse this table; it also arrived in perfect condition!
