This is a beautiful end table and I wish I'd bought a second one when it went on sale for $20 less than I paid. I measured the spot by my sofa to see the 19" height that some had complained about and it hit about 6" below the top of the armrest, which was fine. The wood is so beautiful, the table was easy to assemble. I had only ONE complaint and that was the mfgr. should pack the correct length screw for the drawer pull (the one they send is too long). I fixed it with a couple of rubber washers and it works fine.
