The table is stunning. It was easy to assemble. However the listing says that it is real solid wood and when you are eating over the table it does not seem that way. When you look in between the slats it looks like the table is cheaply constructed with particle press type material. It might just be how they attached the table top slats together but it makes it look cheap when you can see through. The table top is also not level. It has a rustic look and feel. When eating the plates will rock on the table top which can be annoying. I think it is a good table for the price but I think there are things that can be improved. All in all I still think the table is beautiful and a great buy.
