This table works perfect in the place I decided to put it. Has a couple places where the wood is chipped off, but not that noticeable. The metal things that hold the wood were sticking out of the box when delivered. The UPS driver waited for us to inspect though before leaving, which I thought was a nice touch. They were not damaged or bent, but the packaging could have been better to support them. It is a vary unique table and I expect I will get many compliments on it.
