LOVE this table.  Wanted it for our oversized built in banquette to accommodate a lot of family and friends for dining and table games in a small space. Had a beveled glass top protector made so we could enjoy the beauty of the wood all the time and not cover with a table cloth or worry about spills.  The sturdy metal X legs are the solution to preventing banging your knees when sliding into a banquette. I put felt protectors on each table leg so table slides easily on the wood floor when necessary. Very happy with table.
