Although I LOVE the style of this table, within 2 months the finish started to wear. I have been careful to make sure to NOT place hot plates or anything on the table without a trivet or pot holder. The finish started to deteriorate simply after wiping it down with a sponge and mild soap. So very disappointed. Then when I called 6 months afterwards, all they they gave me was a 15% discount of the table top itself. So unhappy.
