I love the look of this table- from a distance. Apparently I needed to read more closely into the description of the “solid and manufactured wood” which means all visible “wood” is veneer and up close looks and smells like plastic. I purchased this for a visible area, so I’m disappointed in how little actual wood there is on this product. There are no real written directions other than pictures (and not for this actual size product either), but it was still pretty self-explanatory. Overall this product is fine if you know what you’re getting which I guess I did not.
