This is a really great table for small spaces, or someone who wants something simple, light, and easy to move. The assembly is so easy. The table looks really nice, though it is clearly inexpensive (not real wood, plain metal). We purchased this because our farmhouse table that my boyfriend built was a bit large for our space and we were tired of cats scratching at the wood, even though this is not traditionally as nice as the table we had, it feels like an upgrade! Added bonus, the bench seating makes this more versatile than a set with 2 chairs: you could seat 4 people here if needed even though it's small.
