This is a beautiful table and comfortably fits four people and place settings and maybe a small centerpiece.  But, If you need a table that would fit serving bowls and platters, you would need something larger. The picture with the purple chairs makes it look small, but it definitely seats 4 people. It came in sturdy packaging and easy to assemble. I purchased the Asbury side chairs from AllModern and they look amazing with this table. I am very pleased with this purchase and would highly recommend!
