im in love with this table.  it is beautiful.  Glossy, metal base.  Matte solid feeling top.  I dropped one star because 2 of the washers they sent were the wrong size (too small).  we had washers that worked, so no big thing for me, but clearly they did not even plan for the correct parts based on the part list.  Just be ready to get some hardware.   However great value, great table.
