The size is perfect for our space.  Our 15-yr old daughter was able to put the table together by herself.  It's weighty, hard wood and very sturdy.  We'll be painting the bottom and staining the top as others have done.  Can't wait to see the final result.  Fits perfectly with our decor.  The price was phenomenal!  Saw the same table for over $1200 (insane).  I've waited 20 years to buy a new coffee table and I couldn't be happier!
