These tables are nice and heavy, and easy to assemble.  They are kind of rustic, and not shiny at all, which was what I wanted, but if you want shiny, vaneered or polished wood, these are not for you.  One drawback -- the top "drawer" is not a drawer at all, but rather a flat board you can pull out.  I was a little disappointed at that, and think the description should be amended to show that it is NOT a drawer.
