I added 4 post legs to raise up off floor. Makes it look bigger. I really like spreading it out so my husband and I can both rest a drink without having a large table all the time. Love the design. Friend came over with <1 y/o who was learning to walk and surprisingly didn't bust her head when she fell a few times while holding on. Takes a little bit longer to dust with the 3 levels (swifter works well to stick in there).
