I am a quilter who needs a sturdy table for cutting fabrics.  I also needed some extra storage space and this table provides all that I was looking for.  It fits great in my sewing area and is large enough or me to work with while providing extra storage.  The construction is very sturdy and while I was overwhelmed at first with the amount of hardware it came with, once I got going and could see from the overall diagram on how to put it together, it actually went pretty smoothly with very little trouble.  It's a beautiful table.  I also love that you can dress up the look by adding colorful storage cubes or baskets in the lower shelving.
