I was hesitant buying a coffee table sight unseen, but the reviews were positive so I was hoping not to be disappointed. Love this table. Nice clean lines that will fit in with any type of furniture. The base itself didn't appear to be too sturdy, but once the glass top, which is very heavy, was placed on top, I'm confident the table will not be moving. I purchased this on sale, so I feel I did well. However, the table is not a $1000 +. If you are looking for  a sturdy, smaller table this is for you. Just wait for a sale!
