To find a table with a white top seems to be easier said than done. Most seem to have dark finishes. I was thrilled to see this on Wayfair and ordered it quickly. In my excitement I didn't look closely at the details, and it is an end table and not a table to go over the seat. At first I was unhappy that it was so much higher than my previous one, but now I am very pleased. The extra height is much easier to manage and things don't get knocked off it as easily. Plus, if I choose to, I can put it on the end of the couch as an end table... so double score! The table comes preassembled, so it is rock solid, welded together rather than by hardware that can work its way loose over time. The metal base is heavy and very stable. The top has a subtle marble texture and also has substance to it, not a cheap plastic.  Very pleased with this table!
