This table is absolutely gorgeous!!  I was very nervous given some of the negative reviews, but the table has far exceeded my expectations, especially for the price.  It is indeed solid wood, the stain is a bit darker than pictured (see images of mine attached), and it's not sealed so it can be either easily sanded and re-stained or sealed/oiled with something that is lower toxin that the manufacturer would have probably if I choose to do so based on wear.  I am super pleased, great job Wayfair!
