Really love the look of this table. I wanted a completely solid-wood table, but couldn't find one with a comparable style to this one that I liked. So I bit the bullet and bought it despite a portion being engineered w/ veneers. It looks great in my dining room! It's really sturdy and solidly built. There are leather-ish sliders/pads on the feet - nice for protecting hardwood floors. The mechanics of the butterfly are smooth and seem well built. The only complaint I have is that the assembly instructions leave a little to be desired - too simplified. It relies solely on graphics and they aren't labeled well. I'm a visual/spatial person and I was able to figure it out, but others may not find it as easy. Written instructions in addition would be an improvement.
