While I was expecting the table to have a distressed finish, I didn't think that would include a couple of large gouged and scraped areas where the finish was removed.  I did NOT expect to receive someone else's damaged return. But based on the condition of the box and ripped up packaging, the hardware having been repackaged in a quart-size ziplock bag, and the fact that the box contained a packaging slip for a woman in TX who received it a month earlier than I did in NC: Someone's damaged return is exactly what I received. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to open this up and put it together until 1-2 months after I received it, so Wayfair is apparently ignoring my request for a new top. Big fail on this purchase.

All that said, the table is very pretty from a distance.  Don't get too close to the base or you'll see that it's just brown paint slopped onto flimsy tin table legs.
