We purchased this table for our dining area of our ranch style home.  I was looking for something to replace our round table which expanded to an oval to seat 6.  The width always presented a problem causing us to feel cramped walking around the table when had all 6 chairs being used.  This table is about 6 inches less in width than our previous and I love the look of the metal.  We bought the silver and have had no issues with scratches as of yet, it's been a month of normal use.  I paired with wood and vinyl - a leather "look" as I hate leather and killing animals for their skin : ( Chairs are alternating gray and sea foam blue, looks spectacular! LOVE my purchase! The table was delivered on time and was well packaged.  Extremely easy to assemble, just add legs!
