We ordered this pub set to replace an old pub table with drop down sides.  We are limited on space and we were looking for a pub table similar in size to our old one.  This table is perfect!  Very easy to assemble and very very sturdy.  We love how the bench and chairs fit underneath the table so space is not an issue at all.  The dark color is very attractive and compliments out kitchen nicely.  We can easily set three table settings,  We are very pleased with this purchase!
