The table and chairs are well built, but the set is created for a person 6 feet tall. As a shorter person, the table is too high for me and ai have to use an additional cushion. I wish the furniture came with a base that people can choose to add in or leave off based on their height. It is quite irritating and ugly to have to use something to boast myself up to be at the right height to use the table comfortably. 

That aside, the table is pretty, and solid, and quite functional. And it goes well in our modern condo (we got the table in the dark/black colour).
