The table arrived packaged very well. It’s pretty heavy so 2 people are best. Assembly is a breeze. The table itself is well made and beautiful. However, the color is “golden”. The picture on the site is way off. I did not like the color, at all, but was so happy with the table so...I changed the color. Sanded everything, except the legs, down to bare wood and smoothed out the rough texture. I stained it to the color I want and added some clear. Now, it’s perfect! Beautiful and warm. I left the legs original as I think it’s a nice contrast. Highly recommend this table and a little elbow grease to make it your own.
