The table was meant to be a "replacement" for the discontinued one I wanted. On the plus side, the color was a close match to the other pieces. It is a fairly sturdy piece of furniture. It is rather sizeable so measure the area and compare to the dimensions. On the negative side, it could have used better directions and I would have preferred conventional screws rather than hex key ones. For the most part putting it together was not very hard though the screws around the drawer were a bit challenging to get to. The drawer has a "stop"on it to prevent it from coming all the way out but it would have been nice to not have the drawer in the way. There was some damage to the front corner which I decided to live with as I did not see it until after I put it all together. This tends to be a risk with "shipped" furniture these days. Final point - this was made in China.
