I L O V E this table! It is absolutely beautiful, and might I mention HEAVY! You will need 2 to 3 people to maneuver It, my daughter and I really struggled with the mere weight of it, removing it from the packing was a task,,,is solidly built and well worth the money, I would definitely recommend it... I would like to mention that when assembling the table, you have to start it in the upside down position,,, I learned that the hard way, lol. The picture is also shown without the middle extension, the description says that collapsed it seats 4 and extended 8,,, but I have found that without the leaf (collapsed) it will seat 5, with the extension in 9 to 10, VERY Spacious indeed. Great purchase.
