This console table is awesome, and a truly great deal! it's very solid, feels very expensive. i really loved that it wasn't finished, because it allowed me to customize it. it was super easy to stain/paint, since it's already prepped. i didn't even have to sand! i also changed out the hardware. it was very easy to put together, takes about 20-30 mins and you might need someone to help you since it's a pretty big piece. i loved it so much that i bought the end table and painted/stained it to match. if only they sold a round coffee table in this style i would have bought it in a heartbeat!!! definitely recommend, you won't be disappointed.
