Very sturdy, super easy to assemble (top piece, bottom piece and 4 legs and screws to hold it all together).  I replaced a dark coffee table and end tables with this to lighten the room. My only complaint is that the textured top doesnt look quite as high quality as it photographs or looks close up.  It looks just fine in my living room, and I like them.   Purchased with the Dunstable Coffee Table and is a perfect match.
